The
secretarybird or
secretary bird is a very large, mostly terrestrial bird of
prey. Endemic to Africa, it is usually found in the open grasslands and
savannah of the sub-Saharan region. Although a member of the order Accipitriformes,
which also includes many other diurnal raptors such as kites, buzzards, vultures,
and harriers, it is given its own family,
Sagittariidae. It appears on the coats of arms of Sudan and South
Africa.
