The bald eagle is North America's national bird and an apex predator renowned for its keen vision and powerful flight. Once endangered, conservation efforts have brought populations back; these iconic raptors are found near large bodies of water where they hunt fish, diving at speeds up to 100 mph. Their distinctive white head and dark body plumage make them instantly recognizable across the continent.
