spectacular aero-nautical eagle show @ marina bay ~ June 2012

Why wait for the annual air-show at far-away Changi when you can see a spectacular one daily at the Marina Bay Reservoir?


The eagle had been flying circles beyond the Benjamin Sheares Bridge with its partner but flew towards the Esplanade at about 6.30pm. It suddenly swung into a steep dive with its legs extended swooping close to the surface before snatching what was most likely a fish from the surface. 

It then began flapping its wings flying up in a tight spiral. It kept doing this until it reached well above the Esplanade durians before flying off across the Padang. It soon settled on its favourite perch atop a building and started consuming its skillfully caught dinner. Evening showtimes are between 6pm and 7pm. Best vantage point is from the Esplanade Bridge. Spectacular and free....right in the heart of the city!
