We sighted this Crested Hawk Eagle on a Jungle Fowl Kill. The Jungle fowl was too heavy for the CHE and we saw it repeatedly try flying off with it. Once it realised it could not. It started picking off its feathers and eating the kill while slowly dragging it into the foliage cover. It was great to see this from close quarters. Only wish the bright grass stalk were basent behind the bird.
