Birds of Lake Nakuru National Park
Lilac Breasted Roller Mobbing Snake Eagle
I was trying to identify the big bird of prey perched on top of a dead tree and was taking some pictures when the lilac breasted roller flew past to have a go at the snake eagle. I only had one shot of the encounter as the roller flew off straight away.
