      As I understand it from reference books, those live in Egypt or points south or perhaps the China Seas, and dine on Elephants, so I rather dismissed that breed as a candidate!

    I had to look at it quite a while, but now im pretty sure the rock is just perfectly facing away from the camera. Legs facing backwards and the wings pulled completely back ready for the next swing. Maybe there is some movement distortion but would be odd at that speed.
