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.
