Like most Hieraaetus eagles around the world, populations of Little
Eagle are polychromatic. Appearance is age related and it is
possible to circumscribe various morphs but in my experience the
boundaries are fuzzy. I wish I had the opportunity to observe large
numbers and perhaps maker a bit more sense of the variation. Until
then I rely on proportions and form to identify them and enjoy the
variety.
