Fly like an Egyptian

We watched a magnificent sea eagle hunting above the bay this morning.

It was joined by two or three smaller kestrel-like raptors, taking it in turns to dive down into the sea before soaring up again and circling, searching, eating. There are other more familar birds here too - the ubiquitous sparrows and doves of course, but also - surprisingly to me - pied wagtails going about their business in much the same way as they do 2,500 miles away at home.
