(Diều đầu nâu, Nisaetus cirrhatus)
The changeable hawk-eagle (Nisaetus cirrhatus) or crested hawk-eagle is a large bird of prey species of the family Accipitridae.
"Changeable" is from a wide variation of plummage: from pale to dark, varying on molt and age change.
Accipitridae from Latin accipiter/accipitri- "hawk".
The genus name Nisaetus combines the Medieval Latin nisus for a sparrowhawk with the Ancient Greek aetos meaning "eagle".
The specific epithet cirrhatus is from Latin cirratus meaning "curly-headed".
