The Eastern Imperial Eagle (Aquila heliaca) is a large species of bird of prey that breeds from southeastern Europe to western and central Asia. Most populations are migratory and winter in northeastern Africa, and southern and eastern Asia. The Spanish Imperial Eagle, found in Spain and Portugal, was formerly lumped with this species, the name Imperial Eagle being used in both circumstances. However, the two are now regarded as separate species due to significant differences in morphology,ecology and molecular characteristics.
Comparitive to Steppe Eagle it is almost the same size and weight coming in 2.3 - 3ft in lengh and upto 4.5kg/ 10lbs. Both aquilars live side by side at time when in migratory to tropical SEA countries and peninsular Malaysia as suitable sites are getting scathe.
