Type of Eagle Known
A Russian grand duke visiting a German prince mistook a single edged bird for an eagle. An experienced huntsman explained the bird had one beak, prompting the grand duke to question how it could be an eagle with only one beak. The anecdote reflects imperial Russia’s double headed eagle symbol and education of grand dukes.
