I don’t want to be too picky, but at least the eagle pictured on Germany is kind of wrong. While it is not specified which species of eagle the “Bundesadler” is, it is most definitely never depicted as a bald eagle (that would be the USA). More usuale would be a Golden eagle or a White-tailed eagle.
If you are interested in the history and background of the Bundesadler, here is an informative video. It’s in German and I’m afraid there is no English version

Same for Hungary: the national bird is the Turul, a mythological bird. Presumably it originates from the Saker falcon, so it’s not even an eagle.
Yeah, I wouldn’t be too attached to the specific animal version for each, this is more symbolic than anything else

It’s a black eagle on the official Bundestag seal and flag. But Wikipedia says those only live in southeast Asia. What’s up with that?
The eagle being depicted in black doesn’t make it a black eagle. English is a weird language.
