*** About Bald Eagles: Known as a symbol of strength and freedom, Bald Eagles are majestic birds predominantly found in North America. These powerful raptors are easily recognized by their white head and tail feathers contrasting against a dark brown body and wings. Adult eagles are known for their impressive wingspan, which can reach up to 7.5 feet, making them formidable hunters and keen-eyed foragers. Bald Eagles build the largest nest of any North American bird, often reused and added to each year, which can weigh as much as a ton. Their diet primarily consists of fish, making their habitat typically near large bodies of open water. Notably, the Bald Eagle has been the national emblem of the United States since 1782, representing long life, great strength, and majestic looks.
