(Haliastur sphenuris)<\/em><\/p>\n

Length:<\/strong>\u00a0 50-60 cm Common<\/span><\/p>\n

Distribution Australia generally, very rare in Tasmania; also occurs in New Guinea and New Caledonia. Also called Whistling Eagle and Carrion Hawk.<\/p>\n

Common and widespread; usually in pairs, frequently around coastal and inland districts. Its flight is buoyant and easy and it often soars to a great height, uttering a shrill whistling cry that is audible at a distance of a kilometre or more.<\/p>\n

In coastal districts it is a confirmed scavenger feeding upon dead fish and offal left by the tides. It also feeds on small mammals; birds, lizards, carrion and insects. In many districts rabbits are its chief prey. In all cases the prey appears to be taken on the ground.<\/p>\n

Breeding season is practically throughout the year. The nest is large, rather flat; composed of sticks and lined with leaves; placed on a horizontal branch of a tree, occasionally an old nest of another bird is used. Eggs: 2 or 3; white or bluish white, sparsely spotted lavender and reddish brown.<\/p>\n
