About These Birds
Black Eagle
The Black Eagle is a large, all-black raptor with broad wings, a long tail, and distinctive yellow cere and feet, giving it an imposing silhouette in flight. It inhabits forested hills and mountains from the Indian subcontinent through Southeast Asia to Indonesia. It specializes in raiding the nests of other birds and squirrels, gliding slowly over the forest canopy to locate prey.
