No Hair Gel Needed!

Common Name: Ornate Hawk-Eagle
Scientific Name: Spizaetus ornatus
Conservation Status: Near Threatened

The ornate hawk-eagle is known  for its beautiful, colorful plumage and its long, black-feathered crest (a characteristic of most species of hawk-eagle). Males, females, and immature (young) birds of this species all have a crest. What a hairstyle!
