A Loyal Bird: Like most eagles, bald eagles are monogamous; they stay faithful to one partner, 'til death do they part.
Bald Eagle Stronghold: The northwest coast of North America, with its plentiful supplies of salmon, supports nearly 80% of the world's 70,000 bald eagles.
Shrill and Squeaky: The sounds the bald eagle makes — squeaks and shrill cries punctuated by grunts — are unlike the powerful screach attributed to the bird in films.
Juvenile Journeymen: Young bald eagles spend up to four years exploring — sometimes up to 2,000 miles from where they were born — before settling down.
