Secretary birds are active from dawn to dusk, although they rest in the shade during the hottest times of the day. They are known to walk 20 miles (32 km) or more a day across the savanna in search of food.
Heavy-duty scales protect the lower parts of their legs as they walk through the grass. They will seek out areas that have recently burned to find prey that didn’t have time to escape.
When they catch something, they spread their wings and raise the feathers on the back of their neck in what some call a terror display.
