The bald eagle is not actually bald but has a bright white head on top of a dark brown body with bright yellow beaks and feet. They are 34-43 inches tall with a wingspan of 6-8 feet wide. They weigh anywhere from 7-14 pounds and may live up to 28 years.
Eagles are carnivorous, with most of their diet consisting of fish. They will also scavenge carrion, steal kills from other animals, and capture and eat small mammals, gulls and waterfowl. They are usually found near lakes, reservoirs, rivers, marshes, and coasts. You will see bald eagles soaring high in the sky.
