Three cool looking species of raptors:

The Harpy Eagle, the Bateleur Eagle and the Bearded Vulture 🦅

Those are some cool looking birds if i say so myself.

the bateleur eagle is a medium-sized eagle, closely related to the ‘snake eagles’, found in sub-saharan africa. they are endangered, having experienced sharp population declines due to habitat loss, accidental poisoning, intentional shooting and pesticide use. they are known to be aggressive in many contexts, but easy to disturb from their nests. they reach maturity at 7-8 years of age, which is later than most other birds of prey. adults are overall black, with bright red facial skin, while juveniles are brown. bateleurs have a unique appearance due to their large head and small legs, which seem disproportionate to the rest of their bodies.

Submitted for classification by @birdsagainsthumanity

"This is Captain Scarlet the Battleur Eagle, from the raptor foundation in Cambridge, England. She lost some feathers due to her previous owners bad husbandry, but she flies (and nibbles fingers) just fine! I'd love to see how she's classified."
