Bird snatches camera and records video of journey
Print Edition
A brazen bird snatched a video camera that was recording crocodiles in northwest Australia and captured fascinating footage of its 110-kilometer journey across remote landscape.
Wildlife rangers in Western Australia’s Kimberly region released video yesterday that reveals the sea eagle’s caper. The bird’s flapping wings can be seen as it grabs the device and takes off, and the eagle later poses for a selfie, poking its face into the camera lens.
Rangers set up the motion-sensor camera along the Margaret River in May, hoping to record images of crocodiles. The camera, which is about 10 to 15 centimeters long and 5 centimeters wide, disappeared soon after and the rangers figured it had fallen into the water.
The rangers found out the device had been located near the Mary River, about 110 kilometers away, ranger Roneil Skeen told Australian Broadcasting Corp. When they examined the video, the real culprit was revealed. They now plan to bolt down their cameras, Skeen said.
