The wrings in the first pic are from a harpy,  I´ve taken that pic from the internet. And the other wrings are from a milan, don´t know if there are milans in America, too.  |

ahhh, nice work! no, there are no harpys or milans in America. (shame - they're GORGEOUS birds, aren't they? especially the milans ^_^) before you told me, i thought the first wings might've come from an osprey (also a gorgeous bird, which i believe dwells in both the Americas and Europe. i had the GREAT blessing to observe a pair once during a vacation to FL. truly magnificent birds!).

Well ,I heared that harpies living in the rainforests of South America, but they are very rare.
Osprey, I thought you would say fisheagle, so you would say this in German.
But they are very beautyful birds, too.
They live in Germany, too, in the northern part.

Yes, they are birds of many names - Ospreys, Pandions, fishing eagles, fish hawks... all are the same bird!

Wow, didn´t know that.
But in fact I´ve read that they aren´t really eagles, they are hawks.

right. for some reason, some people call them eagles anyway. odd, no? Actually, Pandion is a more general name for a few different hawk species. I forgot to mention that earlier. sorry.
