About These Birds
Culebrera pechinegra
The Black-chested Snake-eagle is a large, powerful raptor of sub-Saharan African open habitats, with dark brown upperparts, a white belly, and a conspicuous black breast forming a dark chest band. It inhabits open and lightly wooded savanna, grasslands, and semi-arid scrub across much of eastern and southern Africa. As its name suggests, it feeds almost exclusively on snakes and other reptiles.
águila volatinera
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.
