Description
When: January 6, 2019
Where: Landgoed Hoenderdaell Anna Paulowna, The Netherlands
It's really too bad that there's no telling whether the Birds in the enclosures around the arena used for the Bird flight demo, are the same Birds we know and have seen before. So I have no idea of this is the famed Julius or Juultje from Ready for take-off
I do know that this is a stunning winter-head of this iconic and awesome Eagle!
Species: Bald Eagle (Amerikaanse Zeearend)
Latin name: Haliaeetus leucocephalus
Originates from North America.
Current status: Least Concern
Did you know:
…The Bald Eagle is of course, not actually bald, but it’s name derives from an older meaning, namely “white headed”.
…Both sexes are similar in plumage –though immature birds are brown – but the females are larger than the males.
…In the late 20th century, the Bald Eagle was on the brink of extirpation (extinct in its chosen geographic area, but still existing elsewhere) but has recovered in a matter of 12 years, from Endangered, to Threatened, and since 2007 has been removed from the endangered and threatened list in most states.

Bald eagles, always seem to me at least to have this purposeful, completely hacked off, imperiousness to them.
