   Catching breakfast is only the start of the battle. The whistling kite caught the stilt, but then had to evade its sibling AND a swamp harrier who came to see what all the fuss was about and whether there might be a free meal involved. Kite no. 1 managed to keep the stilt all to itself. #birds #birdphotography
