Votes:0 BIOMES KEY Animal List Bald Eagle Haliaeetus leucocephals This is the bald eagle at the Utica Zoo in its summer cage. Its winter cage is smaller and has two heat lamps in it. General Information The bald eagle is a bird of prey. It eats ducks, gulls, sea birds, salmon and other fish. Occasionally, it will eat osprey eggs, too. Eagles challenge osprey forcing them to leave their homes and then the eagles eat the ospreys' eggs. Sometimes, the eagle will take food from other birds. An eagle's nest is made of large sticks and twigs situated in a tall tree close to water. The bald eagle lives in the United States and southern Canada, but it lives mostly in Alaska. It migrates to the southern part of the United States and Mexico. It is also the national bird of the United States. Some of the cha Read More Go to Site
Votes:0 A merican Bald Eagle ( Haliaeetus leucocephalus ) Click the speaker to hear the Eagle! WHAT DOES AN EAGLE LOOK LIKE? This large raptor (bird of prey) has a white head and tail. Its body is black or dark brown. Its feet and eyes are bright yellow. Eagles can soar a long time without flapping their wings. The Bald Eagle is our largest raptor and can weigh up to 15 1/2 pounds. Its wings stretch 6 to 7 1/2 feet when open wide. WHAT DO THEY EAT? Eagles prefer fish, water birds, and small mammals, but will eat dead animals and garbage. They hunt with their strong talons (claws), but it’s less work for them to scavenge or steal their food. Eagles will fly at ospreys (fish hawks) to make them drop their captured fish. The eagle then catches the stolen fish and flies away to eat it. In 1782 Be Read More Go to Site
Votes:0 American Bald Eagle Genus : Haliaeetus Species : leucocephalus The Bald Eagle is a large fierce looking bird. It's name in Latin means "the sea eagle with a white head". It is the national symbol of the United States of America. Benjamin Franklin had suggested that the national symbol be the Wild Turkey, because the Bald Eagle was "a bird of bad moral character", but he was outvoted. Today it is seen on many things in the United States, such as money, seals, and other patriotic symbols. The Bald Eagle generally lives forty-five to fifty years in captivity and twenty-five years in the wild. It is one of the largest flying birds seen in the United States.

Votes:0 Bald Eagle ( Haliaeetus leucocephalus ) Description: The adult bald eagle is recognized by everyone as the symbol of our country. Adult bald eagles have dark bodies and wings with the familiar white head, neck, and tail feathers. Young eagles are less distinctive, adding the white feathers gradually after one year of age. Bald eagles are large birds, with body lengths of 28 to 32 inches and with wingspreads of 6 to 7 feet. Eagles catch and eat fish and other prey and will eat dead animals along lake and river shores and roadsides. Bald eagles nest in large trees, often near water. These nests are usually located near the tops of the tallest trees and are added to and re-used year after year. Generally, eagles nest in Alabama during October - May, but may stay on the nest until August. Eagl Read More Go to Site

This eagle is native only to the islands of Luzon, Samar, Leyte, and Mindanao. Its closest relative is believed to be the New Guinea harpy eagle (Harpyopsis novae guinea). Because of the eagle's extreme elusiveness, its existence was documented only in 1896 (despite the fact that other bird species have been documented since over a century earlier). The earliest known sighting by a British bird collector named John Whitehead occurred in Samar. Whitehead encountered the eagle by chance while he was trying to replace a bird collection destroyed in a fire.

There will be pictures, links, and info on Owls. I am researching on owls and will add a page for each one. Keep checking back. Owls are BIRDS OF PREY with powerful beaks and sharp claws. They eat rodents and other small mammals, snakes, and insects. Owls, which hunt at night, have broad heads and large eyes that make them look intelligent. This gave rise to the saying "as wise an owl." A number of species of owls live in North America. The largest is the Barred Owl, which lives in wooded areas i Read More Go to Site

Votes:0 (Dolemaetus bellicosus) (Suggested by Joe Leske of Grand Junction, Colorado) The largest eagle in Africa, the Martial eagle weighs in at almost 14 pounds (6.5 Kg.) and has a wingspan of about 6 feet 4 inches. It is 32 inches long. This eagle can be found throughout the African savanna, in any type of terrain, from mountain to flat plains, and from the edge of deserts to wooded country. Due to their very slow reproduction rate and the fact that a great number of them are shot by farmers, one cannot expect to find more than one pair of these eagles in an area of about 150 square kilometers. Martial eagles are commonly seen perched on tall dead trees. They spend much of their time flying at such a height that it is impossible to see them, even with good binoculars. They hunt from the air, div Read More Go to Site

Katanglad, Mindanao, Philippines In choosing the "best bird" in the world, I use the same criteria that I adopted in my youth when I researched, weighed, balanced, and created my own "top 50 birds of the world." These criteria were: (a) how distinctive the species was, (b) how impressive the bird seemed to me (e.g., big & colorful more impressive than dull & small), (c) how rare the bird was, and (d) how hard the species was to locate in the wild, and (e) extinct species were not considered. In 1975, after sorting through all my individual pages of "50 most wanted birds" and ranking them, my "Most Wanted Bird Read More Go to Site

Votes:0 Bald eagle, ( Haliaeetus leucocephalus ) The bald eagle is truly an American bird -- it is the only eagle unique
to North America. It ranges over most of the continent, from the northern
reaches of Alaska and Canada down to Florida's Everglades and Marco Island,
a 'Bald Eagle Sanctuary'. While our national symbol was in danger of extinction throughout most
of its range 27 years ago, the bald eagle has made a tremendous comeback,
its populations greatly improving in numbers, productivity, and security
in recent years. Male bald eagles generally measure 3 feet from head to tail, weigh 7
to 10 pounds, and have a wingspan of about 6 1/2 feet. Females are larger,
some reaching 14 pounds and having a wingspan of up to 8 feet. This striking
raptor has large, pale eyes; a powerful yellow beak; and Read More Go to Site
Votes:0 The Barn Owl (Tyto alba) The Barn Owl has nearly world-wide distribution,being absent from only the high Latitudes. It has been introduced into some Pacific islands for rat control and is provided nest boxes in Malaysian palm nut groves for the same purpose. While the barn owl is found all over the US, its numbers are particularly high in California and the Southwest. Farmers and ranchers are increasingly attracted to the barn owl's ability to control rodents better than traps,poison,or cats and at no cost. Barn owls in favorable habitats produce large broods once or twice a year. Each young owl as it nears maturity will eat the equivalent of a dozen mice per night if such prey is available. Adult barn owls kill and consume the equivalent of one large rat or gopher per night. The Owl Rehab Read More Go to Site

Votes:0 Animals A - Z - Eagles Eagles Many of us have gazed into the sky at the power and beauty of an eagle circling overhead. We can imagine all eagles as big, lion-like predators, and it is true that some eagles can weigh over 20 pounds—but this is not always the case. The smallest eagles weigh little more than a pound, and a bald eagle does not outweigh the average house cat. With wingspans of three to four feet, these birds are among the most efficient predators in the sky. How do they hunt? To see an eagle hunt is like watching a highly trained pilot in an air show. It can swoop through the air at incredible speeds, sometimes diving at 200 miles per hour. Keen eyesight helps it identify prey as small as a rabbit from a distance of two miles. Some eagles can strike with more force than a Read More Go to Site
