Bald eagles are North America's most iconic bird of prey, instantly recognizable by their distinctive white head and dark brown body. These magnificent raptors can weigh up to 14 pounds and have wingspans reaching 7 feet, making them formidable hunters.

Known for their incredible vision, bald eagles can spot fish from over a mile away while soaring at high altitudes. They primarily hunt fish, which make up about 90 percent of their diet, using their powerful talons to snatch prey from water with remarkable precision.
