Description
One of my latest Eagle models from "Songbird ReMix: Birds of Prey v6: Eagles of the World2" (July 4 release)
The Changeable Hawk-eagle is found through the Indian subcontinent and Indonesia. It is scarce on Java due to deforestation, and thought to be declining locally elsewhere owing to habitat destruction and human disturbance. It prefers deciduous and evergreen forest, as well as secondary forest, gallery forest, savanna, forested villages, tea and teak plantations.
It preys upon small and large birds, snakes, frogs, lizards and small mammals (squirrels, rats, hares, and occasionally monkeys and tree shrews). It hunts similar to a goshawk, from concealed perch inside the forest edge. Prey are captured after short rapid stoop. It will scavenge on occasion.
What makes this Hawk-eagle changeable? The word 'changeable' refers to the changing dark morph to pale morph and vice-versa. The image shown is of the "pale" morph.
