🦅Golden eagle

Aquila chrysaetos (Linnaeus, 1758)

검독수리(영어: golden eagle, 학명: Aquila chrysaetos)는 수리과에 속하는 맹금류이다. 북반구에서 가장 잘 알려진 맹금류 가운데 하나이며, 다른 수리과 조류처럼 주행성 맹금류에 속한다. 한때 전북구 전역에 널리 퍼져 있었으나, 인간 거주 지역부터 점차 사라졌으며, 일부 지역에서 멸종했거나 희귀하며, 여전히 유라시아, 북아메리카, 일부 아프리카 지역에서 흔하게 서식한다. 세계에서 가장 큰 검독수리 서식지는 캘리포니아의 앨러미다군 남부 지역이다.
