BALD EAGLE Haliaeetus leucocephalus
The bald eagle, national emblem of the United States, is found
in all states except Hawaii. Due to its outstanding ability as
a skilled flyer and as a fighter, plus its strength, fierceness,
and appearance, have long caused the eagle to be held in
high esteem. It is a symbol of freedom, nobility, power,
prestige, and conquest. It is found near water where it feeds
on fish. Bald eagles can see their food from great heights.
The nest may be 5 by 5 feet, and in the highest tree in the
vicinity.
