Description (Forgot to upload this... whoops)

The Whistling Kite (Haliastur sphenurus) is a medium-sized diurnal raptor found throughout Australia (including coastal islands), New Caledonia and much of New Guinea (excluding the central mountains and the northwest). Also called the Whistling Eagle or Whistling Hawk, it is named for its loud whistling call, which it often gives in flight.

Thanks! C:
Yeah, birds are incredibly hard to draw- especially the predatory ones... which also happen to be my favorite animals. Art is a difficult thing to do. xD
