About These Birds

elang botak

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.

Black Honey-buzzard

The Black Honey-buzzard is a vulnerable, medium-large raptor with dark brown to blackish plumage and a relatively long tail adapted for soaring over forest. It is endemic to New Britain Island in the Bismarck Archipelago of Papua New Guinea, inhabiting primary lowland and montane rainforest. Like other honey-buzzards, it specializes in raiding the nests of bees and wasps, feeding on larvae, pupae, and honeycomb.
