WILDLIFE: BIRDS: AFRICAN FISH EAGLE 
Class: Aves Order: Falconiformes Family: Accipitridae Genus and species: Haliaeetus vocifer Common name: African fish eagle Found around water, either fresh or saline, though it can stray far off it. Spread throughout the country except in the driest north and east. More numerous in the Rift lakes and in lake Victoria. Besides fish, carrion and other birds also make up its diet. In occasions it will steal prey from other raptors. At lake Baringo, Njemps fishermen throw fresh fish at them to the tourists' delight.
