About These Birds
Harpyie
Die Harpyie zählt zu den kraftvollsten Greifvögeln der Welt und besitzt Krallen von der Größe der Klauen eines Grizzlybären. Sie ist der Nationalvogel Panamas. Die größte Bedrohung für die Art ist die Abholzung der Wälder, da jedes Brutpaar ein weites Revier unberührten Waldes benötigt.
Gaukler
The Bateleur is an Endangered eagle of the family Accipitridae found in open savanna and woodland across sub-Saharan Africa. Weighing about 2,400g with an impressive wingspan of 100.1cm, it is distinguished by its extremely short tail and vivid red facial skin and bill. It soars for hours over vast distances, feeding primarily on carrion and occasionally taking live prey.
