Eagle is a common name for many large birds of prey of the family Accipitridae it belongs to several groups of genera that are not necessarily closely related to each other.
Most of the 60 species of eagles are from Eurasia and Africa. Outside this area, just 14 species can be found – two in North America, nine in Central and South America, and three in Australia.
My favorite wild animal is the eagle. This bird is very unique and interesting. Some of the things I like about the eagle is its eye sight, its diet and feeding habits, and its history.
First, all eagles are known to have excellent eye sight. They can see both forward and to the side at the same time. They can see fish in water from several hundred feet above, while soaring or flapping in flight. Eagles, like all birds, have colored vision. An eagle can see four times as good as a person with perfect vision. This kind of excellent eye sight is unique to eagles and other birds of prey like hawks and owls.
Second, the diet and feeding habits of the eagle is very interesting. The eagle feeds mainly on fish but will take advantage of carrion. To catch a fish the eagle approaches in a shallow glide and snatches the fish out of the water with a quick swipe of its talons. An eagle can lift about four pounds. An eagle can eat one pound of fish in about four minutes. Eagles do not have to eat every day but if they wait too long to eat they can get to weak to hunt. These are just some of the interesting things about their diet and feeding habits.
The eagle is also important to the history of the United States. The eagle was chosen June 20, 1782 as the emblem of the United States of America. The eagle represents freedom. It is displayed on the backs of many of our coins with outspread wings. These are some of the reasons why the history of the eagle is very interesting.
Eagles are often informally divided into four group.

Sea eagles or fish eagles take fish as a large part of their diets, either fresh or as carrion.

Booted eagles or "true eagle have feathered tarsi (lower legs).
