The bald eagle is a North American raptor and national symbol. It appears on the Great Seal and U.S. coins and bills, including the quarter, chosen by Congress in 1782. Eagles have keen eyesight, strong talons, and dense plumage for insulation and camouflage.
A word puzzle asks to locate eagle related terms hidden in various directions. It lists a clue string showing letters and hints that some are backward or diagonal and some letters repeat. Readers must spot embedded words within the scramble.
Bald eagles inhabit lakes rivers marshes and sea coasts with Alaska hosting the most. Some migrate while others stay where food remains plentiful. Pairs mate for life and reuse nests yearly, incubate one to three eggs for about 35 days, and raise eaglets with both parents caring for the nest.
Eagles recovered from the endangered list face ongoing hazards including vehicle strikes on roads and railways, collisions with aircraft, power line injuries, poisoning and pesticides, shooting, drowning, and ingestion of carrion from animals shot with lead bullets.
At the library a small exhibit features Norman Pearl’s The Great Seal of the United States and Lisa M Herrington’s The Bald Eagle. The display highlights U S symbols and eagle imagery for readers.
Eco note describes global species loss due to human activity. It highlights the dodo of Mauritius wiped out by sailors in the 1600s, Steller's sea cow and the American passenger pigeon extinct by hunters in the 1700s and 1900s respectively.
A brief feature notes Fourth of July items bearing an American eagle emblem. It invites teachers to use standards-based activities linked at bit.ly MP standards and to follow The Mini Page on Facebook for updates.
