Cry

Concerning the eagle scream in-games being actually red-tailed hawk's cry... There's the quite well-established tradition in Hollywood to use latter for the former, simply because the eagle's own cry isn't nearly as majestic and awesome as that of the red-tailed hawk's cry. This is also mentioned in the Wikipedia entry for said hawk: "The fierce, screaming cry of the red-tailed hawk is frequently used as a generic raptor sound effect in television shows and other media, even if the bird featured is not a red-tailed hawk. It is especially used in depictions of the bald eagle." Sadelyrate (siniath) 06:20, August 29, 2018 (UTC)
