About These Birds

Bald Eagle

The bald eagle is the national bird and symbol of the United States. Once endangered due to DDT pesticide use, it made a remarkable recovery and was removed from the endangered species list in 2007. These powerful raptors build the largest tree nests of any bird, some weighing over two tons.

águila poma, águil inca

The Black-and-chestnut Eagle is an endangered large raptor of humid montane forests along the Andes, from Venezuela to Argentina. It has striking black upperparts and chestnut underparts with fine barring. It preys on medium-sized arboreal mammals, large birds, and reptiles, and is threatened by deforestation and hunting throughout its range.
