The Debt Eagles weigh from 8 to 12 pounds with females usually larger. They have a wingspan near 6 feet and are about 3 feet long. Eagles see about five times better than humans and spot prey up to a mile away. They hunt during the day and favor fish but also eat injured or dead animals.
The notes describe eaglet development from 35 days to flight at three months, parental time with offspring, and lifelong pair bonding. Adults mate for life and reach four years before producing eaglets. Nests are built from sticks, often reused and enlarged, with one known nest measuring 20 feet deep and 10 feet wide, weighing over a ton. Eagles may winter in groups but pair off during mating season and are not truly bald though their white head feathers give that impression.
June 20 marks Bald Eagle Day, recalling 200 years since Congress adopted the eagle as the U S national symbol. Today the bald eagle remains listed as endangered in nearly all states, with plentiful populations in Alaska and none in Hawaii.
