Eagle is the common name for many large birds of prey of the familia Accipitridae. Eagles belong to several groups of genera, not all of which are closely related. Most of the 60 species of eagle are from Eurasia and Africa. In the North America, the two most common eagles are the Bald Eagle and the Golden Eagle. They can be spotted in the far north of the continent in the warmer seasons and down to the southern states and Mexico in the winter months.

The bald eagle (Haliaeetus leucocephalus) is a sea eagle. It's an opportunistic feeder which subsists mainly on fish. The bald eagle builds the largest nest of any North American bird and the largest tree nests ever recorded for any animal species, up to 4 m (13 ft) deep, 2.5 m (8.2 ft) wide, and 1 metric ton (1.1 short tons) in weight. It is most famous for being the national bird and symbol of the United States. The bald eagle appears on its seal.

The bald eagle is not actually bald. Its name actually derives from an older meaning of the word, "white headed". The adult is mainly brown with a white head and tail. The females are about 25 percent larger than males. The beak is large and hooked. The plumage of the immature is brown. The golden eagle is North America’s largest bird of prey. It can grow to a length of 3 feet, with a wingspan of 6 to 7 feet. They typically live between 15 to 20 years but have been known to live as long as 30 years. Golden eagles are territorial. A mated pair can maintain a territory as large as 60 square miles.

In the late 20th century it was on the brink of extirpation in the contiguous United States. Populations have since recovered. Now, it's estimated at least 150,000 individuals bald eagles are in the North America, about twice as many golden eagles there are estimated to live in North America.

The golden eagle is the most widely distributed species of eagle. They are dark brown with lighter golden-brown plumage on their napes. Golden eagles are a protected species in the United States. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service can fine up to $10,000 for anyone possess a golden eagle feather or body part.

Eagles are raptors, also known as “birds of prey.” This means that the eagle hunts animals that are close to its own size. The eagle is willing to take on the challenge of these hunts because of its ability to fly, hone in on prey, and grasping it with its talons before finishing it off with its sharp beak.

The eagle has long been a symbol of dominance, freedom, and dignity. Catching sight of one of these majestic birds is always a special treat. The Native Indians saw the Eagle as a symbol for great strength, leadership and vision. With its acute eyesight, its ability to travel effortlessly between land and sky, soaring high above the clouds, the eagle is often a solar symbol and was linked to sky gods. It signifies inspiration, release from bondage, victory, longevity, speed, pride, father and royalty; it is often an emblem for powerful nations. the eagle has been used as a symbol by many of the great empires throughout history, from Babylon to Egypt, Rome and the United States.
