Largest Bird’s Nest
These massive birds are not only massive in size, but the nests they build are equally huge. Their nests are nearly 2 to 4 feet deep and 4 to 5 feet wide. The male and female eagles build the nests together laying a strong foundation for their eggs.
Look At Wings
People often mistake these huge birds for vultures. One must look closer at their wings. A bald eagle has flat wings on flying while a vulture will hold the wings above in a V shape.
Beautiful Eyes
These majestic birds have a special lid in their eyeballs. They have a see-through eye membrane which is known as nictitating membrane. The special feature is that these birds can close this eyelid for protection of their eyes while their main eyelid remains open.
Swim At Times
Bald eagles have hollow wings and huge wings which at times help them to float. They can certainly swim pretty well. And these birds float in order to grab a heavy-weighing fish from the upper layer of water and cherish it as their food.
Females Larger Than Males
These birds own another different characteristic to themselves. The females are nearly 25 percent larger in size. Why this differentiation in the structural build-up is a question, the scientist has been figuring out.
