Mountain Hawk-eagle
Mountain Hawk-eagle (អកភ្នំ) is a large, bulky eagle of forested hills. The small head, immensely broad wings, and large, often fanned-out tail give this bird the silhouette of a hawk on steroids when in flight. When perched, the thin upright crest separates this species from any hawk.
