I think it is more likely to be a crested serpent eagle, Spilornis cheela

The facial pattern looks more like a serpent eagle, although it does look a bit like a honey buzzard. This one looks like a serpent eagle to me.

You're right it does kind of match the website. I'm not sure about this one, it looks like both. From first glance it did look like a serpent eagle, but now I see what you mean, the patterns are slightly different.

From this angle it seems like a honey buzzard. Thank you all for explaining the difference. I agree, it is probably a honey buzzard. Nice shot!
