- The African harrier hawk, a medium-sized raptor, look at this amazing display when threatened...
Standing on the High Water Bridge of the Sabie River at Paul Kruger Gate we witness this amazing behaviour from the African Harrier Hawk or also called "Gymnogene".
This is truly a remarkable bird due to its ability to hunt for food mostly live prey while hanging upside down and breaking open small crevasses in tree trunks to reach its food.
The face also changes colour from yellow to red when the bird is mating.
This was an amazing scene to watch but when played in slow motion it's incredible as I did not know it can make this type of display when threatened.

I've never seen anything like it, these images are fantastic, thank you so much for sharing.
Glad you enjoyed it
What a beautiful hawk
That display of size didn’t sway those kingfishers. Thanks so very much for posting this video.
Our pleasure!
Whoa, that was a protective display to protect himself!
Thanks for the cool video. Something that I haven't seen before 👍
Glad you liked it!
I like his head too much, it is magnificent💞. It reminds me of another raptor, I'm not a connoisseur, but I appreciate it.
Thank you for the video👍
I'm glad you like it
Brilliant stuff.
Amazing sighting! Your camera is very good, or the sighting was very close, or perhaps both! I like so much the slow motion when woodland kingfisher arrives👏👏👏
Thank you very much!
My favourite bird of prey I love how they soar an catch the little chicks while mama hen tries to defend but alas our hawks get wat they after an fly away with the little chicks
Sweet ❤
Extraordinary!!!!! What camera did you shoot this with Bernhard?
