 Eagle - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Major new research into eagle taxonomy suggests that the important genera Aquila and Hieraaetus are not composed of nearest relatives, and it is likely that a reclassification of these genera will soon take place, with some species being moved to Lophaetus or Ictinaetus.
Bonelli's Eagle, Hieraaetus fasciatus and African Hawk-eagle, Hieraaetus spilogaster, should be moved to Aquila.
Greater Spotted Eagle, Aquila clanga and Lesser Spotted Eagle, Aquila pomarina should be moved either to join Long-crested Eagle, Lophaetus occipitalis or, perhaps better, all three of these species should move to Ictinaetus with the Black Eagle, Ictinaetus malayensis.

 Recently Extinct Animals - Species Info - Haast's Eagle   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
ittle eagle Hieraaetus morphnoides (Gould, 1841) and the booted eagle Hieraaetus pennatus (Gmelin, 1788) as recently as 700,000 to 1.8 million years ago.
Its increase in weight by 10 to 15 times in that period is the greatest and fastest evolutionary increase in weight of any known vertebrate.
The results found the Haast's Eagle was in fact related to the small eagle species in the genus Hieraaetus, namely the Little Eagle Hieraaetus morphnoides (Gould, 1841), and the Booted Eagle Hieraaetus pennatus (Gmelin, 1788).

 EUROPA - Environment - Action plan Hieraaetus fasciatus   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
The Bonelli's Eagle Hieraaetus fasciatus is an endangered species at European level having experienced a large decline throughout almost all of its European range, with a population now numbering less than 2500 pairs.
The Bonelli's Eagle Hieraaetus fasciatus is endangered at a European level having undergone large declines throughout almost all of its European range between 1970 and 1990, reducing the population to 862-1072 breeding pairs (Tucker and Heath 1994).
The declines have exceeded 50% over twenty years in some areas and in Spain, which holds up to 65% of the European population, the population appears to have declined by 25% from 1980 to 1990.

Among other things, Wildt and his colleagues at the Centro de Estudios de Rapaces Ibericas, near Toledo, Spain, are studying how the sperm of several threatened raptor species are affected by freezing and thawing at various rates and temperatures.
They have focused on the Bonelli’s eagle (Hieraaetus fasciatus), booted eagle (Hieraaetus pennatus), golden eagle (Aquila chrysaetos), Spanish imperial eagle (Aquila adalberti), and peregrine falcon.
Their research has shown a marked variability in the temperatures and cooling rates the sperm of each species can withstand without suffering damage and reduced fertility.

We have been permanently looking out for Eleonora's Falcon (Falco eleonora), but too early, only an Osprey (Pandion haliaetus), a Booted Eagle (Hieraaetus pennatus) and really thousands of Swifts (Apus apus) on migration were our reward.
No that spectacular, only some 'minor' observations were the result: Booted Eagle (Hieraaetus pennatus), a Black Vulture (Aegypius monachus), a Kestrel (Falco tinnunculus).

In the foothills of these mountains it is possible to see one of the most typical Mediterranean raptors: the Bonelli`s Eagle Hieraaetus fasciatus relatively easily.
On the hillsides in the plains’ wasteland where trees are widely dispersed one can find the European Nightjar Caprimulgus europaeus and, with luck, close to the orange farms in the fields it is possible to see Red-necked Nightjar Caprimulgus ruficollis.

 Black Kite
Young Black Kites are generally lighter in colour than the adults, and have a comparatively shallower forked tail.
The Black Kite's plumage is somewhat simliar to other raptors, such as the Little Eagle, Hieraaetus morphnoides, Whistling Kite, Haliastur sphenurus, and Square-tailed Kite, Lophoictinia isura.
In flight, however, its long forked tail and almost unmarked underwing make it unmistakable.
