Spotted
The White-bellied Sea Eagle is a large and magnificent raptor found across Australasia and Southeast Asia, recognized by its distinctive white underparts and dark grey back. It is a powerful fish and seabird hunter.
Where to spot
Widespread across coastal and major inland waterways of India, Southeast Asia, Australia, and New Guinea. It inhabits coastal areas, large rivers, estuaries, and offshore islands.
How to spot
Look for its striking white underparts and dark upperparts. Often seen soaring majestically over water, or perched conspicuously on tall trees or cliffs near the coast. Listen for its loud, goose-like calls.
When to spot
Active throughout the day, often seen soaring high or perched prominently near water. Most vocal during the breeding season. Observable year-round.
This eagle forms strong pair bonds and mates for life, often returning to the same nest site year after year, which can be massive structures built in tall trees or on cliffs.
