עָזְנִיָּה

Heb. 'ozniyyah, an unclean bird according to the Mosaic law (Leviticus 11:13; Deuteronomy 14:12 ); the fish-eating eagle (Pandion haliaetus); one of the lesser eagles. But the Hebrew word may be taken to denote the short-toed eagle (Circaetus gallicus of Southern Europe), one of the most abundant of the eagle tribe found in Palestine.
