Description
Is it at your command that the eagle mounts up and makes his nest on high? On the cliff he dwells and lodges, Upon the rocky crag, an inaccessible place. From there he spies out food; His eyes see it from afar. Yes, the Eagle is a marvel of creation.
The Southern banded snake eagle is a rather small, stocky snake eagle with a large, rounded head which is hooded. As its name suggests the Southern banded snake eagle mainly eats snakes, hunting from a perch, scanning the surroundings for prey.
Juveniles are brown from above and are streaked white on the head. The wing-coverts have white tips and there are narrow black streaks along the throat. There is brown barring on the flanks and thighs and they have five brown bars on the tail.

So many of us will never have the chance to see this wonderful bird in it's natural environment, but you've given it a stunning introduction for all the world to see. Bravo!
