Black Hawk-Eagle

Spizaetus tyrannus

Black Hawk-Eagle

The adult Black Hawk-Eagle lives in tropical and subtropical forests, often hunting from a concealed perch or while flying through the canopy. It takes birds, mammals, and reptiles with powerful feet and sharply curved talons. A long crest can be raised during displays, making this forest raptor appear larger and more imposing.
