Looking For Riley Rebus #3? It's Right Here!

This the part 3 of the Riley Rebus series. Be sure to check out part 2 and part 1

Prefix + Infix + Suffix :

To Clarify :

The answer is only 1 word

Hint :

Trust me, it's not what you first think

Additional Small Hint :

The third picture is an animal, but that wasn't what I meant

Another Hint :

The leaves in the second picture do not matter

4th Super Small Hint :

I know it's obvious, but in case you're wondering, the first image has been answered correctly by almost all who have tried

Medium Hint :

You should not see the 2nd image as tea, even though it still is tea

More Hints :

The third image is an eagle with a specific color (will not tell as it will make things too obvious), but that's not all, is it?

Another specific hint for image 2 :

Try looking at the tea picture from another person's perspective

I got it!

Recharge

Prefix

Re (refresh)

Infix

Cha, for Cha tea in Chinese.

suffix

Rge(Royal Golden Eagle)

Let me try, is it

RETIRED

prefix:

it is a repeat or refresh icon, so I think the prefix is RE

(I just see Duck's comment about the prefix, but I found the answer myself )

infix:

a tea > TI

suffix:

I am not really sure, but I think it is a RED hawk

Probably a stretch but,

Rebus?

Prefix

Re, as stated by others

Infix

B-Tea?

Suffix

A golden eagle. The bald eagle is the national bird of the United States, or US.

Ok, here is my answer and clarification:

RECHARGE

RE for the first image

Instead of Tea - I used the word chai which is another popular name for it, though I have changed it to char to make more sense as a word

GE - because the bird is a Golden Eagle

Maybe:

Recovered (RE+CUP+BIRD when said with a mouthful of porridge!)

Frankly, I cheated by looking at the "super close" answer of @jc1850 so I'll say:

retie or return

Prefix

Re, which everyone got

Infix

T, because it's a cup of tea

Suffix

ie, because it's the bird's eye hence the hint that "it's not the animal" or

urn, if this is an erne (sea eagle).

Though I really think the English language could use a new word:

turncuphawk which I define to mean a puzzle that makes everyone beat their heads against a wall.

My wild guess:

Retina

Prefix:

A replay button, hence Re.

Infix:

A cup of tea, hence ti.

Suffix (Not so sure about this one):

A golden eagle which can be found in North America, hence na.

EDIT:
Regarding the last hint:

Is the infix D? Because when you look at cup from the opposite side of the "table" it kind of looks like the letter D

Are you a:

Reticle?

Reason:

Re(Replay) + Tea + Eagle.
Sounds similar to Reticle.
Also fits the title because if you are looking for something through a scope you aim at the target using the reticle.

Partial

I think the suffix is GE (Golden Eagle)

Second Attempt

Could it be:

Recipe

Prefix

Retry

Infix

You sip (cip) tea

Suffix

Eagle

Possibly?

Research

Prefix like all before have said

re

Infix

hard to feel good about this but I believed it could be sip... but only the s

Suffix

This is what I feel the best about - perch

Justification of the hint -

The third picture is an animal, but that wasn't what I meant
Perch is both the action the bird is involved in and a type of fish. So it is an animal but not what the creator was intentionally referencing.

remugle

Prefix:

Re

Infix:

Mug - its a mug

Suffix:

Le - Its a golden eagle

Answer

Refulge. It means someone or something that shines or glows.

Prefix

RE. Icon meaning return, repeat, etc.

Infix

FUL. The cup is full.

Suffix

GE. Golden Eagle. Based on other answers.

Partial

I'm guessing the 2nd photo is actually minty, mint+tea. I was thinking redo-minty, as in rudimentary, but the hawk doesn't fit in well with that... Perhaps someone can take that and go from there.

I'll try another answer. Is it

RETWEET

prefix:

it is a replay or refresh icon, so I think the prefix is RE

(I just see Duck's comment about the prefix, but I found the answer myself )

infix:

a tea > T

suffix:

I am not really sure (again), is a bird means a TWEET?

Partial:

Could the suffix be CA for Canada?

Is the answer

Refrain

First pic

Reload/Refresh

Second pic

Tea is also known as chai

Third pic

Golden eagle, North America. Credits to GiaFil7 on this part

Let me try and thanks to jc1850 for hint

Could it be:

Resign

Prefix

Reload

Infix

have a sip of tea

Suffix

GoldeN eagle

Is the answer:

Recuperate?

First image:

"Re", as in your hint you state it's the answer most people have given for this

Second image:

"Cup", a cup of tea (can't be tea, according to your hint)

Third image:

"Perate" sounds like "parrot", but you clarified in your hint that it's an eagle?

Grasping at straws here

Repurpose

Prefix

Re (redo/refresh)

Infix

Pur (pour, the tea from the POV of the waiter)

Sufix

Pose (what the bird is doing unsuspectingly)

When everyone's trying their hand at it, I will too. :P

Is the answer

ReCapture

Prefix

Re

Infix:

Cup (cup of tea

Suffix:

Ture (The bird is a golden eagle, but that's not all, it is a 'true eagle', modify it a little to get 'ture')
