The majestic Bald Eagle was adopted in 1782 as America's official bird.
It has historically been a symbol of freedom and patriotism in the
United States of America, and for good reason. The bird is associated
with authority and has a fierce beauty that speaks to those who look
upon it. Today, the Bald Eagle is a protected species. Once on the brink
of extinction, it is currently enjoying a comeback. In this book,
wildlife and bird photography specialist Jeffrey Rich showcases over 150
of his storytelling photographs of Bald Eagles and shares insights into
the birds' habitat, feeding habits, mating patterns, the care of their
young, and more. Readers will marvel over images of birds in flight, in
nests with their young, at rest, preening, and capturing prey, as Rich
chronicles the daily lives, in detail, of America's favorite bird.
