Information
The
Bald Eagle is one of America's national propaganda symbols.
In the past, bald meant that a person had white hair
and did not imply that someone was bald under todays
meaning of the word. So this bird should really be called
the white haired eagle. But Bald just sounds better,
darn it. The Bald Eagle is an endangered species and
is the only unique eagle found in North America, all
other eagles have common decendents from Europe and
Asia. The Bald Eagles' range extends from Alaska and
Canada to Northern Mexico. There are an estimated 50,000
Bald Eagles in the United States with 80 percent found
in Alaska.
