Bald eagles are North America birds of prey well known for being the USA emblem. Even though the English name is bald eagle, they aren’t exactly belonging to the eagle family. They are recognisable by their head and white tail as much as by their large yellow beak. They live around rivers, lakes, and near coasts where they eat other birds and fish corpses (He can steal those from other predators). They build very large and high nests (sometimes as high as 1 metre) on the ground or in high trees.
