Eagles are born to soar. They rule the sky over mountains, scrubland, lakes and oceans’ edges. Both bald and golden eagles grace the West, and once upon a time the Santa Monica Mountains.
Raptors—birds of prey—specialize in hunting and eating meat. They have dagger-clawed feet called talons that are designed to grasp and pierce. Their hooked beaks are suited to tearing carcasses a part.
They have binocular vision, eyes oriented towards the front rather than the side, which are five to six times stronger than humans’. They are routinely able to spot small mammals a mile from the sky!
The eagle’s ability to soar is legendary. They are experts at reading landforms and finding updrafts and thermals—those spiraling columns of warm air that rise to considerable heights and are often topped by cumulus clouds.
Female golden and bald eagles are both slightly larger than their respective male counterparts. Females weigh 13 pounds and males reach 10 pounds and both have 7.5 feet wingspans. They are the largest raptor in North America.
