Secretary Bird (Sagittarius serpentarius)

Seen in Mara North Conservancy, Kenya. Loosely related to eagles, these unique birds eat everything from insects to lizards, snakes, and small mammals. They can fly, but mostly spend their time on the ground stalking through grass looking for prey. Their population is in a rapid decline, and they are listed as "Endangered" by ICUN>
