Bald Eagles
Bald Eagles build huge nests in the tops of tall
trees near water.
They use large sticks
to build the nests and then line the nests with
soft materials such as grass, leaves, and Spanish
moss.

The nests are used for several years by
the same pair of eagles, with the birds adding
materials each year.

These nests may reach 10 feet across
and weigh as much as 2,000 pounds.
Eagles lay two to three eggs once a
year, which hatch in about 35 days.

The baby eagles are called eaglets.
They can fly in 11 to 12
weeks, but the parents continue to feed them for
4 to 6 more weeks while they learn to hunt.
