Little Eagle 

The Little Eagle (Aquila morphnoides) is a very small eagle native to Australasia, measuring 45-55 cm (17-21.5 inches) in length and weighing 815 g (1.8 lb) - roughly the size of a Peregrine Falcon. It tends to inhabit open woodland, grassland and arid regions, shunning dense forest. It is a near relative of both the Palearctic Booted Eagle and, remarkably, the massive (but now extinct) Haast's Eagle of New Zealand.
