Avian Predator in Thailand.

In this video, a Crested Serpent Eagle stands regally on a slender branch in Khao Sok National Park. Its feathers are predominantly brown with lighter speckles, creating a natural camouflage against the dense green foliage in the background. The eagle's sharp gaze scans its surroundings, head turning with precise, almost mechanical movements. It exudes an air of dominance and vigilance, as befits a bird of prey in its natural habitat. The shot captures the gentle sway of the branch, reacting to the subtle shifts in the bird’s weight. Surrounding the eagle, a lush tapestry of greenery, with leaves of various shapes and sizes, provides a vivid backdrop, enhancing the eagle’s natural majesty in this footage.

The Crested Serpent Eagle is a medium-sized raptor with a wingspan of approximately 100-160 centimeters (39-63 inches) and a body length of about 55-75 centimeters (22-30 inches). It has a distinctive appearance with a prominent crest of feathers on its head and a stout, hooked beak adapted for tearing flesh. The plumage of the Crested Serpent Eagle is variable, ranging from dark brown to pale buff, often with prominent barring on the underparts. This eagle gets its name from its diet preference for snakes, although it also preys on other small vertebrates like lizards, frogs, and small mammals.
