Eagle Fun Facts
Bald eagles were nearly extinct in the lower 48 states by the 1960s due to habitat loss and pesticide exposure. In 1963, there were only 417 nesting pairs of bald eagles left in the entire country.
Thanks to conservation efforts, bald eagles were removed from the endangered species list in 2007.
Bald eagles don't develop their characteristic white head and tail plumage until they reach four to five years of age.
Eagles build enormous nests, sometimes eight feet wide and weighing over a ton.
The average wingspan of a bald eagle is 6.5 to 7.5 feet.
Bald eagles mate for life and return to the same nest each year.
Eagles have exceptional eyesight—they can spot prey from up to two miles away.
While the bald eagle has been the national symbol of the United States since 1782, it was only recently declared the official national bird in December 2024.
The presence of eagles is a key indicator of healthy ecosystems near lakes, rivers, and forests.
The largest population of wintering bald eagles in the U.S. is found in Alaska, but they nest in nearly every state.

Stock market today: Dow, S&P 500, Nasdaq fall with focus on Trump Iran decision, Fed rate cuts, China chip tensions
US stocks turned lower on Friday as investors navigated a flurry of developments across multiple fronts. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (^DJI) gave up gains to fall below the flatline. The S&P 500 (^GSPC) erased early morning gains to fall 0.3%, while the tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite (^IXIC) fell 0.7%. A Fed governor floated the possibility of interest rate cuts by July, and President Trump put off a decision on whether he would authorize a US strike in Iran. Meanwhile, chip stocks took a hit after a Wall Street Journal report indicated the US wants to revoke waivers from top global semiconductor manufacturers used for accessing American technology in China. Nvidia (NVDA) fell around 1.1%. Trump has introduced a self-imposed two-week time limit on deciding whether to enter the Middle East conflict, via a message relayed on Thursday by the White House press secretary. While the move added another layer of uncertainty to an already cautious market, it also opened a window for diplomacy to persuade Iran to negotiate — an idea its president rejected strongly on Friday. Eyes are now on European efforts to get Iran back to the table and avert further escalation in tensions. Foreign ministers from France, the UK, and Germany are holding talks in Geneva with their Iranian counterpart. Meanwhile, Fed governor Chris Waller on Friday floated the possibility of rate cuts in July, arguing recent inflation data has been tame even amid the introduction of Trump's tariffs.. The central bank held interest rates steady this week, and Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell reiterated that policymakers are not rushing to ease, leading to a fresh attack from Trump. Waller's comments led to a slight uptick in bets on a July cut, though most traders are betting on the next cut coming in September, according to CME Group. Read more: The latest on Trump's tariffs The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJI) gave up session gains to fall below the flatline. The broad-based S&P 500 (GSPC) and the tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite (IXIC) were also down. All three major averages were on pace to end the week in red territory on Friday as Israel and Iran entered their second week of fighting. Chip stocks were under pressure on Friday after a Wall Street Journal report indicated the US aims to rescind waivers that allow top global semiconductor makers to access American technology at their Chinese plants. Yahoo Finance's David Hollerith reports: Read more here. Oil was on track to close out its third week of gains as investors awaited President Trump's decision on whether the US would directly intervene in the Israel-Iran conflict. West Texas Intermediate futures (CL=F) traded just below $75 per barrel, and Brent crude (BZ=F), the international benchmark, hovered near $76. WTI and Brent were up nearly 3% for the week after volatile sessions following the outbreak of the Israel-Iran conflict last Friday. Wall Street analysts have remained cautious on the recent rally. On Friday, Citi said its researchers "see a lower risk of material energy flow disruptions from the conflict." "Affecting the oil supply is not to the benefit of Iran or the US. In the event Iran's 1.1 mbpd of oil exports are disrupted, the team estimates Brent prices could be $75–78/bbl — limited upside from current prices," wrote the analysts. Semiconductor stocks took a hit on Friday after a Wall Street Journal report indicated a top US official told top global semiconductor manufacturers he wants to rescind waivers used to access American technology in China. The move would once again inflame US-China trade tensions. Applied Materials (AMAT) and Lam Research (LRCX) both fell roughly 4%. Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSM) and Broadcom (AVGO) also declined. Circle's (CRCL) massive rally shows no signs of cooling. The stablecoin issuer soared as much as 15% in early trading on Friday, extending its stunning post-IPO surge as Wall Street bets big on crypto's next major disruptor. "Circle as a top-tier crypto 'disruptor' with a sizeable future opportunity," Seaport Research Partners analyst Jeff Cantwell wrote on Friday. "On the back of an improving regulatory climate, we expect adoption globally of stablecoins such as USDC," he added. Cantwell initiated the stock with a Buy rating and a price target of $235 a share from Seaport Research Partners. During mid-morning trading on Friday, Circle stock hovered near $228. The move follows a surge of about 30% on Wednesday following the Senate's passage of the GENIUS Act, legislation that provides a federal framework for stablecoins, which are digital tokens backed by assets, such as the US dollar. US stocks rose on Friday following dovish comments from Fed Governor Chris Waller. Investors also digested President Trump's two-week deadline for deciding whether the US will directly get involved in the Israel-Iran conflict. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (^DJI) rose 0.3% while the broad-based S&P 500 (^GSPC) gained roughly 0.4%. The tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite (^IXIC) rose 0.4%. Oil prices fell after the White House said Trump would make his decision within two weeks, leaving room for diplomacy. Still, crude futures were on pace for a third week of gains. Dovish comments also sent stocks higher after Fed governor Chris Waller on CNBC's Squawk Box suggested that the Federal Reserve could move to lower interest rates in July. Waller said that any inflation from tariffs may be short-lived. US stock futures edged higher ahead of the opening bell, with contracts on the Dow Jones Industrial Average futures (YM=F) and S&P 500 (ES=F) rising roughly 0.3%, and those on the tech-heavy Nasdaq 100 (NQ=F) adding 0.4%. The move higher followed dovish comments from Fed governor Chris Waller on CNBC's Squawk Box, suggesting that the Federal Reserve could move to lower interest rates in July. Waller argued that any inflation from tariffs may be short-lived. "Any tariff inflation ... I don't think is going to be that big, and we should just look through it in terms of setting policy," Waller said. "The data the last few months has been showing that trend inflation is looking pretty good ... We could do this as early as July." Read more here.
