    Eagle

     is the common name for many large birds of prey of the family Accipitridae. Eagles
    belong to several groups of genera, some of which are closely related. Most of the 60
    species of eagle are from Eurasia and Africa.[1] Outside this area, just 14 species can be
    found—2 in North America, 9 in Central and South America, and 3 in Australia.
    Eagles are not a natural group but denote essentially any bird of prey large enough to
    hunt sizeable (about 50 cm long or more overall) vertebrate prey.
