This bird is big, about Vulture size, but the white in the wings makes me think a bathing Kori Bustard??

Not easy to say from this photo. I would guess that it is a bathing white-backed vulture. They are also well known for bathing.

thanks for the id on the Martial. Have another for you that Matthys posted again. Is it a different bird? Have two shots of it. I know it is hard to really tell from the web cam postings but any help would educate us

That would also be martial eagle.
It's the only eagle this time of the year with fully feathered legs and the white below and upper dark coloration in the Park. |
