Spanish imperial eagle  (Aquila adalberti)

The Spanish imperial eagle breeds in central and southwest Spain, with populations found in the Sierras of Guadarrama and Gredos, the plains of the Tajo and Tiétar rivers, Monters de Toledo, the central hills of Extremadura, the Alcudia valley, Sorena Morena and the Guadalquivir marshes. It previously bred in Portugal, Algeria and Morocco, but is now only found there as a vagrant (2). It is also found in France and Gibraltar as a vagrant (1).

Inhabits cork oak forests, plains and hills in central Spain, flood plains and dunes in the Guadalquivir marshes and on high mountain slopes in the Sistema Central, where irrigated farmland is absent (2).
