Mom and Dad Bald Eagles

The bald eagle, our national bird, is the only eagle unique to North America. At one time, the word “bald” meant “white,” not hairless. Its distinctive brown body and white head and tail make it easy to identify even from a distance. When flying, the bald eagle very rarely flaps its wings but soars instead, holding its wings almost completely flat. Its hooked bill, legs and feet are yellow. The bald eagle is not picky about how it gets its food. It will eat carrion, steal fish from other birds or hunt for its own.

Their most important non-carrion food is fish, which they catch by swooping down and grabbing fish that are near the surface of the lake or stream. In this image is a male and female. The female being the larger of the two. A female bald eagle’s body length varies from 35 to 37 inches; with a wingspan of 79 to 90 inches. The smaller male bald eagle has a body length of 30 to 34 inches; with a wingspan ranging from 72 to 85 inches. An eagle’s average weight is ten to fourteen pounds.
