Eagle

Birds of prey have always aroused wonder and admiration. Their astonishing flying ability and the perfection of their hunting skills are awe-inspiring. In many countries across the world, they are symbols of power and freedom. From owls to ospreys, kites to kestrels, condors to caracaras, falcons to fish eagles, sparrowhawks to secretary birds, all the different kinds of birds of prey are introduced in Eyewitness Eagle. Watch them fly, hunt, nest, eat, and bring up their young. Examine in close-up their eyes, beaks, talons, muscles, skeletons, feathers, and wings. Written by Jemima Parry-Jones of the National Birds of Prey Centre, Gloucestershire, England, Eagle introduces the reader to the beautiful and fascinating world of birds of prey.
