Accipitriformes - Accipitridae - Ictinaetus malaiensis (Helang Hitam Asia)
Large and distinctive dark eagle of forested mountains and hills. Adults appear all dark from a distance, but closer inspection reveals pale barring on the primaries, secondaries, and undertail, as well as a bright yellow bill and feet. Readily separated from other large birds of prey in range by structure as well as coloration; Black Eagles have broad wings with distinct “fingers”(emarginated primaries) in the tip, as well as a long tail that is fan-shaped when open and slightly wedge-shaped when closed.
(eBird)
Soaring, circling
as if all matters is itself.
as if all matters is itself.
Too far, too dark
yet unable to ignore
simply too majestic
even from a distance.
