The Solitary Eagle is a large, dark, and elusive raptor found in mountainous regions of the Neotropics. Its name reflects its typically solitary nature and preference for remote, forested slopes.
Where to spot
Found in mountainous regions from Mexico through Central America to northern South America (Andes). It inhabits humid montane forests and cloud forests.
How to spot
Requires patient scanning of remote montane forests and skies above. Look for its large, dark silhouette in flight. Listen for its deep, ringing calls, often heard in misty conditions.
When to spot
Observations are rare due to its elusive nature and remote habitat. Likely active during daylight hours, often seen soaring above mountain ridges.

Despite being called an 'eagle,' its taxonomy has been debated; it shares characteristics with both hawks and eagles, and its true relationships are still being studied.
