Animal Encouter - 6

Patiance pays and thats truely said while filming wildlife. After few trials, I was able to capture the flight of sea eagle at the Cardiff Bay, Wales, UK.
While walking along the Cardiff Bay's Barrage, we were able to see a lot of sea birds. Sea Eagle being one of them. I tried to capture the flight of the Sea Eagle, thinking its an easy task. Everytime the bird used to fly when my camera memory stick was exhauseted. After a few trials, I was able to predict when the Sea Eagle is going to take its next flight.

Barrage Gates, Cardiff Bay

During my visit to Cardiff Bay, Cardiff, UK, I had an opportunity to view the operation of the barrage gates. For those who are unaware of the meaning of barrage, - the Barrage is usually a dam placed in a water course to increase the depth of the water. It was evening time and the fishermen were returning back to home after their days work. The boats were returning back to shallow side of the Cardiff Bays Barrage. Barrage Gates and hence the flow of the water on either side of the Cardiff Bay are controlled by the three huge metal levers as show in the picture.

Animal Encounter - 2

On my trip to Cardiff, we had chance to walk along the Cardiff Bay. There were many birds flocking around the Bay inlcuding Swans, Sea gulls, Kingfishers and some other birds.
I tried to capture some moments of sea birds swiming, fishing and flying around the Bay using my camera. One of the intresting videos is of a sea bird eating fish at the sea shore of the Cardiff Bay.
