Bald eagle

The bald eagle is a majestic bird of prey native to North America, known for its striking white head and tail feathers contrasted against a dark brown body. It is a powerful symbol of freedom and strength, often associated with the United States. Bald eagles primarily feed on fish and are commonly found near large bodies of open water, where they build massive nests in tall trees or cliffs. This iconic raptor has made a remarkable recovery from the brink of endangerment and continues to captivate birdwatchers and nature enthusiasts alike.
