I have been sent a link to a very worthwhile film about the
Philippine Eagle (earlier known as monkey-eating eagle), a story that is also
told. The film is released by the Cornell Lab of Ornithology. It goes for 1
hour 34 minutes. This is dramatic looking but a little known species and this
film is quite impressive, of the birds breeding, filmed in very difficult
situation. It also covers the very fraught conservation situation, that just
might be improving, and the people who are working to assist it. The link is
behind this name: Bird of
Prey - YouTube On my visits to the Philippines, I several times
visited the one Philippine Eagle in Manilla, it was captive in the Aquino zoo
but died recently and there is no replacement. It is a very impressive bird.
