Wing upstroke of Bateleur eagle

Bateleur eagle (Terathopius ecaudatus) in flapping flight. The wing upstroke reveals the silvery look of its underwing feathers lit by side lighting. The eagle owes its French name 'bateleur' (tumbler) from the habit of rocking its wings from side to side when gliding.
