Pinsker's Hawk-Eagle is an eagle endemic to the southern Philippines, previously considered a subspecies of the Philippine Hawk-Eagle. It inhabits forested areas and is an active predator of birds and small mammals.
Where to spot
Forests and woodlands in Mindanao and other southern Philippine islands.
How to spot
Look for its dark brown upperparts, pale underparts with heavy streaking, and a crest. Distinguishing it from other hawk-eagles in the Philippines requires careful observation of plumage details and vocalizations.
When to spot
Year-round, active during daylight. Can be seen soaring over forest or perched within, especially during the breeding season.
Its recognition as a distinct species highlights the biodiversity and unique evolutionary paths of raptors in island archipelagos like the Philippines.
