The Blyth's Hawk Eagle ( Spizaetus alboniger ) 51 - 58 cm

Meeting this raptor is rare and far in-between. Hence it is always a thrill when one meets with this dynamic looking bird of prey. The eyes of raptors are so 'penetratingly sharp' that you could sometimes 'feel' the 'cut' when you happen to have the chance to stare face-to-face with one.  

 

Thank you for dropping by. Cheers!

I will never get 'tired' of photographing this great Eagle. Whether it's in-flight or perched on a tree, it exudes that majestic profile that one could only admire in awe. There is a certain assertiveness in it's looks. Perhaps the 'stern look' has something to do with it. 

It's habitat are in broadleaved evergreen forests up to almost 2000 meters above sea level.    

Some photos to share.

Have a great day! Cheers!
