Not sure with these bad photo's. Was thinking Harrier. Flight pattern was strange, flew more like an eagle. |

Both Harriers and Snake Eagles can hover. Photo 3 with dark head and white belly resembles a Black-chested Snake Eagle, but photo 2 shows heavily streaked and brownish underwings. Unfortunately unable to make a positive ID on this one. |
