Hey

Is this the Crested Serpent Eagle or is it the Black Kite. The tail suggests it is the Black Kite but the neck looks different. The photo has been shot in India.

Pl Help

Thanx in advance

I had previously said Crested Serpent Eagle, but you're right that the tail suggests Black Kite. Coloration is a bit off for Crested Serpent Eagle as well. Black Kites are much more populous in your area.
