Wedge-tailed Eagle -- Aquila audax

This day I was happy I was sitting in the first car. We had three cars and were heading north from Cairns. Going to the Lodge Chambers. And suddenly we saw this busy place at the roadside. There was a carcass, probably from kangaroo. There was the huge eagle and another bird of prey I have not yet ID:d. If anyone knows I would be happy if you told me. And, of course, the usual blackbirds. I was in the backseat so I was shooting from inside the car.
This eagle was easy to recognize from the peculiar tail and the long legs.
One of the best sightings on the trip.
