The article "Identification, Habitat, and Diet of the Golden Eagle, UK’s Majestic Raptor" from BBC's Discover Wildlife provides an in-depth look at the golden eagle, the UK's second-largest bird of prey. It details the eagle's physical characteristics, including its dark brown plumage and golden nape, its primary habitats in the Scottish Highlands, and its varied diet consisting mainly of small to medium-sized mammals and birds.
In The Golden Eagle, a Fierce Competitor, narrator Sir David Attenborough examines winter in the Alps where food is scarce and competition fierce. Watch as a golden eagle spots a dead fox but must fight off several crows who also want to eat it. Eventually, the golden eagle is chased off by another golden eagle. This video is excerpted from BBC’s Planet Earth II, a breathtaking documentary series that highlights the natural wonders of our planet.
In How the Snow Affects Animals, narrator Sir David Attenborough describes how predators stalk a herd of markhor goats. When snow starts to fall, the golden eagle is hindered, but the snow leopard is helped. This video is excerpted from BBC's Planet Earth, a breathtaking documentary series that highlights the natural wonders of our planet.
