Crested Serpent-Eagle

I had sightings of Crested Serpent-Eagle on my Thailand birding trip before stopping in Taiwan, but it was very rewarding to see this impressive raptor again. The black-and-white crest feathers are down against the nape in this image. That powerful bill conveys the strength and power of this species. This bird was seen from the footbridge over Hengliu Creek at Kilometre 15 of the Dasyueshan Road in the mountains in the centre of the island, east of Taichung City.
