Peter: Brian, can I see that paper for a sec?
(Brian gives Peter the paper. Peter peruses the paper.)
Peter: Huh... that's odd... I thought that would big news.
Nice! I think this is a Bateleur--an african eagle. Red face and legs, black body plumage, gray wings, short to almost no tail...
I agree - Bateleur, for the reasons Michael says.
They may be Bateleurs, but that doesn't mean they can't be "love birds."
Way to be gentle with that awesome bill.
Definitely bateleur eagle. One of the most beautifully coloured raptors, IMHO.
