Facts
about the animal:
Bald eagles are among the largest birds of prey. They may weigh
up to 14 pounds and have seven-foot wingspans. Bald eagles are
most readily identified by their white heads and tails, however,
they don't attain this characteristic plumage until five years
of age. Until that time, they are dark brown with varying amounts
of white mottling. |
