Description
For anybody who has seen the HD TV series on Wild Russia you may have seen these amazing raptors in the one of the Kamchatka region.
This bird breeds on the Kamchatka Peninsula, the coastal area around the Sea of Okhotsk, the lower reaches of the Amur river and on northern Sakhalin and the Shantar Islands, Russia.
The majority of birds winter further south, in the southern Kuril islands and Hokkaidō, Japan. That being said, the Steller's Sea-eagle is less vagrant than the White-tailed Eagle, usually lacking the long-range dispersal common in juveniles of that species.
From the size of the Bill you can see this is a huge bird Stellers' Sea-eagle is the biggest bird in the Genus Haliaeetus and is one of the largest raptors overall. The typical size range is 86.5 to 105 centimetres (34.1 to 41.3 in) long and the wingspan is 203 to 241 centimetres (80 to 95 in)
