The African Fish Eagle or to distinguish it from the true fish eagles, the African Sea Eagle is a large species of eagle. It is the national bird of Zimbabwe and Zambia. Its closest relative appears to be the critically endangered Madagascar Fish-eagle. Like all sea-eagle species pairs, this one consists of a white-headed species and a tan-headed one. These are an ancient lineage of sea-eagles, and as such have dark talons, beaks, and eyes. Both species have at least partially white tails even as juveniles.
