People came to see what it was all about, with their children and pets, rambling around the green oasis for the first time. Once I observed a man walking his two small dogs here, passing by a perched White-tailed Eagle but looking down at grass and not noticing the largest raptor in Europe at all.

On a side note, the bird is also kind of ugly, so maybe the chicks never seeing their father has a certain protective function. You will not find the Australian Wood Duck in the HBW, as they prefer the name Maned Duck for it. It breeds in tree holes, presumably explaining the more commonly used name for it.

Maybe those should be protected too? Given that the Black Kite is politely described as an “opportunistic hunter” – which includes the fact that they are more likely to scavenge than most other raptors – the name choice of the company protecting the world’s cyber ecosystem is a bit weird.
