sentences:  An unlikely source of confusion, the Verreaux's differs in almost all plumage characteristics and has far more tapered wings that pinch in at the base and, like the golden eagle, tends to fly in a fairly strong dihedral.In Asia, its proportions and size may be suggestive of the perhaps even rarer Pallas's fish eagle ("Haliaeetus leucoryphus") and the two can potentially be mistaken in strongly backlit conditions which obscure their obviously distinct plumages.The large headed and flat winged shape of the imperial eagle may too suggest in silhouette the white-tailed eagle ("Haliaeetus albicilla") but that species is usually rather larger bodied and even larger headed with much broader wings and a proportionately shorter tail.
