Bald Eagle Calling 15 Cm Square Badge

This image shows a bald eagle mid-call. Bald eagles have a rather wimpy voice for such large, majestic birds. They have a squeaky alarm call used near the nest, and a similar vocalisation usually uttered with a vertical head toss. They also call while in flight. The "screaming" vocalisation often associated with the bald eagle is actually a red-tailed hawk call. | "Smithsonian" and the Smithsonian logo are registered trademarks owned by Smithsonian Institution.
