Two Golden Eagles (Aquila chrysaetos) were found hovering high in the sky above the Hulunbuir grassland in North China's Inner Mongolia autonomous region.
Known as one of the best birds of prey in the Northern Hemisphere, golden eagles are extremely swift, and can dive upon their quarry at speeds of more than 241 kilometers per hour.
