Tricia Freeman spotted this bald eagle yesterday, enjoying a pre-Super Bowl meal at Nash’s Pond.

Fun fact: America’s national bird is not actually “bald.” The name comes from an older meaning of the word: “white-headed.”

    Fun fact: Eagles are known to take all types of small animals, from dogs to deer fawn.

    Very cool. I wonder if this eagle is the one who lives on Chimons Island?

    That’s amazing!!! What a wonderful image to capture. Did you know that juvenile “bald” eagles have brown feathers on their heads?
