Buteo japonicus
The Eastern Buzzard is a medium-sized predatory bird from the hawk family. It lives in East Asia, hunts small animals, and builds nests in trees.
The eastern buzzard differs from the common buzzard by its darker wing coloration and details of the chest pattern. It is beneficial for nature because it controls the population growth of rodents in forests and fields.
