The Philippine Eagle has a kind face. I couldn’t help thinking this–me, the anthropomorphism hater– as I watched a pair of Philippine Eagles tend their nest, raise a chick, and tear monkeys apart in Bird of Prey: The Story of the Rarest Eagle on Earth , a well-crafted, beautifully filmed documentary with a mission.

Despite mostly guiding them, I still somehow managed to see a European Badger sitting and watching me back for several seconds, before it slipped into bushes and quite a few White-tailed Eagles , e.g. four in just one morning. And how about Black Storks, otters and eagles? And, with it, its otters, eagles and storks.

Somehow, Steller’s Sea Eagle manages to look both fierce and slightly cartoonish. Back to the eagle. Even the review has some interesting information – for example, a major predator of eagle nests is the Brown Bear. They also estimate between 2115 and 2645 individuals traveled to see the eagle.

Here is the text, taken verbatim: The eagle has the longest lifespan among birds. But to reach this age, the eagle must make a hard decision. Then the eagle is left with only two options: die, or go through a painful process of change which lasts 150 days. There the eagle knocks its beak against a rock until it plucks it out.

This endearing ground squirrel is the preferred prey of a resident pair of Imperial Eagles … Within twenty minutes, a Goshawk, a Black Kite and two Honey Buzzards passed over. But no eagles appeared; or at least none that I was prepared to tick. … It turned out (sighs of relief all round) to be an adult Imperial Eagle. .

Once I observed a man walking his two small dogs here, passing by a perched White-tailed Eagle but looking down at grass and not noticing the largest raptor in Europe at all. The eagle seemed well-used to people and paid no attention either. Reva had the semi-natural feeling of a forgotten green oasis at the outskirts of a busy city.
