Western half of the State, east to Bexar and Comal counties, etc. Breeds abundantly in the Panhandle (Potter and Armstrong counties). 186. Aquila chrysaetos. Golden Eagle. Western half of the State, resident in the mountains of the trans- Pecos region and in the canyons of the Panhandle. Straggles east to Waco, Refugio, etc. Hancock's Corpus Christi record is based on the Bald Eagle which breeds commonly in that section. 187. Thrasaetos harpyia. Harpy Eagle.

Recorded as common resident in Western Texas by Lloyd, although the present writer has never observed it in that section. 189. Falco mexicanus. Prairie Falcon.
