Note 21 — Chapter IV · ACROSS THE MEXICAN MOUNTAINS TO ALTAR
Reading edition
The Caracara or Brazilian Eagle is described in Audubon's Birds of America, ed. 1840, vol. i, p. 21. It was found in Florida by Audubon but so rarely occurs in the United States that it is not included in the "A. O. U. Check List of North American Birds." The name is derived from the hoarse cry that it utters.
