About These Birds

gavião-andino

The Plain-breasted Hawk, <em>Accipiter ventralis</em>, is a raptor in the family Accipitridae associated with forested habitats in the Andes and adjacent regions of South America. Detailed plumage and behavioral descriptions of this species are limited in the available literature. It is believed to inhabit montane forest environments typical of Andean slopes, where it would likely hunt small birds and other vertebrates in a manner consistent with related accipiters. Diet, nesting habits, clutch size, and vocalizations have not been reliably characterized …

The golden eagle is one of the most powerful and agile raptors in the Northern Hemisphere. Revered by many cultures, it has been used in falconry for centuries, particularly by Kazakh eagle hunters of Central Asia. Golden eagles can dive at speeds exceeding 240 km/h when pursuing prey.
