The egg-eating eagle is a large predatory bird with completely black plumage. It lives in the forests of Southeast Asia and obtains food by taking eggs and chicks from the nests of other birds.
The egg-eating eagle differs from other eagles with its dark body color and narrow specialization on eggs and chicks. It helps maintain balance in forest ecosystems by limiting the population of some bird species.
Immature form that undergoes metamorphosis before adulthood.
