About These Birds

Épervier à cuisses rousses

The Rufous-thighed Hawk, <em>Accipiter erythronemius</em>, is a member of the family Accipitridae (Hawks, Eagles & Kites), a group comprising a wide range of diurnal raptors. This species is associated with forest habitats and, like other accipiters, presumably employs swift aerial pursuit to capture prey within wooded environments. Detailed plumage and behavioral descriptions of this species are limited in the available literature. Its conservation status is listed as Not Evaluated, meaning a formal global assessment has not yet been completed. Data …

Bateleur des savanes

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.
