Birds of Prey, also known as raptors, hunt and feed on other animals. These birds are characterised by keen vision that allows them to detect prey during flight and powerful talons and beaks. They have very good eyesight for finding food, strong feet for holding food, and a strong curved beak for tearing flesh. Most birds of prey also have strong curved talons for catching or killing prey. Most of them have wings made for them to glide across the sky, and the purpose of the broad and powerful wings is for the birds to fly a greater distance. Featured in this stamp issue are 4 birds of prey, namely the Changeable Hawk Eagle, White-bellied Sea Eagle, Brahminy Kite and the Black-winged Kite.
