Where does eastern Imperial Eagle usually live?

The eastern imperial eagle is distributed as a breeding species largely along the southern edge of the vast taiga forests. The habitat preferred by the species is often rather open country with scattered trees or more enclosed woodlands, often around or near wetlands. The imperial eagle often forages mainly in open areas, including wetlands and agricultural areas. The central part of their range as a breeding species occurs in vast areas of steppe and here the species often inhabits forest-steppe mosaics, as well as open woodlands, river valleys and even agricultural areas with trees or wooded patches. In Turkestan and Kazakhstan, they may extend their breeding habitat into semi-desert. Largely where golden eagles are absent, the species has been reported to range into secondary habitats such as forested lower mountains and montane steppe and meadowland. In Europe at least, this is due to human pressures, which caused them to abandon open lowlands, timbered plains and river-fringed forests for forested, precipitous uplands. A slow repopulation of their preferred lowlands reported since 1990s in Slovakia and Hungary. Often, eastern imperial eagles winter in more open habitats such as grassland, plains, semi-desert and cultivation with scattered trees as well as various marshes, lakes and other wetlands. The species resides mainly from sea level to 1,300 m (4,300 ft), locally to 1,800 m (5,900 ft), and has been recorded on passage at 3,900 m (12,800 ft) in Asia.
