*** About Bald Eagles

***: The bald eagle, recognized primarily for its striking white head and tail against a contrasting dark body, is not only America's national bird but also a symbol of freedom. With a wingspan that can exceed 7 feet, these majestic creatures are formidable hunters, primarily feeding on fish snatched from water bodies with their sharp talons. Bald eagles are known for their incredible vision, which allows them to spot prey from a great distance. Their nests, often reused and added to each year, can weigh as much as a ton and are the largest of any North American bird. Once on the brink of extinction due to hunting and the effects of DDT pesticide, conservation efforts have significantly rebounded their populations.
