Jerdon's Baza

It is about 46 cm long. It is confusable with Crested Goshawk or the Crested Hawk-eagle in flight, but can be distinguished by the longer upright crest, very broad and rounded paddle-shaped wings

The Jerdon's Baza is classified as Least Concern. Does not qualify for a more at risk category. Widespread and abundant taxa are included in this category.
