The harpy Eagle, one of the largest and most powerful eagles in the world.
The Stellar’s Sea Eagle was possibly slightly heavier and the Philippine Eagle was possibly slightly longer.
I'm inclined to agree with that. But I just consider them even.
The harpy is the strongest tho, but not the biggest.
The harpy is the strongest tho
By what measure? What do they bench?
Love those eagles
That's a big bird!
The birds can grow to 36 to 40 inches. Females weigh between 13 to 20 pounds. Males weigh between 9 and 11 pounds. Its wings are relatively short, enabling the bird to maneuver through its thick-forested surroundings.
If harpy is in the name I’m scared
Yeah those things can crush the bones a falconer's forearm by landing on it and - inadvertently - holding on a bit too tightly. Guys who handle those birds need special reinforced forearm protection.
They dont have the largest wingspan but they have the largest wing depth of any bird on earth. Optimized for radical maneuvres and heavy loads (monkey and sloths) while flying in dense triple canopy jungle.
