The Eagles At Work In Dutch Harbor, Alaska (Pam Aus)





Published on Jun 13, 2013
The eagles hard at work doing their job to clean all the fish out of a fishing net before it gets repaired. The eagles that are brown and speckled are the younger eagles. They don't have the white head and white tail until they are about 5 years old. This is in Dutch Harbor, Alaska.

Bald Eagles of Jenner, 3/16/16 part 1 (Joan Bacci copyright)





I personally had thought it was a 5th year bird from this video, but further evidence from photos we (Joan and I) decided to go 4th year Bird... Joan has some photos showing the underwing linings which show evidence of the bird in its 4th year. To confirm our thoughts we contacted one of the nations leading experts.... below is Jerry's take on it.

"It appears the bird has molted 3 times which would make it a 4th year bird, but depending on energy, location, health, and a few other factors some birds molt slower than others. Hope this helps

Miracle Eagle (Incredible Story on an Eagle rescue) Bald Eagle

Uploaded on Apr 7, 2011
Truck driver Ben Wright was more than startled when a bald eagle struck his windshield with great force as he traveled along the interstate outside of Bear Lake, Idaho at 65 miles per hour. "I didn't know what hit the windshield, all I knew was the glass exploded, and this thing was screaming just like a child, or something," Wright said of the experience.
