Golden Eagle

Golden eagles are found mostly in the open expanses of the western states and occasionally in the eastern states.  They can also be found in Europe, Asia and North Africa.

With their incredible eyesight, golden eagles spend a good portion of their time patrolling open spaces, soaring on thermals in search of prey such as jackrabbits, prairie dogs, waterfowl and snakes. Once it detects its prey, the eagle swoops down at speeds approaching 200 mph.

Male and female golden eagles share parenting duties. Females do most of the incubating of up to four eggs. Both parents help with gathering food for the young, which fledge between 72 and 84 days after being hatched.  They depend on their parents for food for another three months, after which the young move out to find their own territories.
