here are some pics of juvenile bald eagles

young bald eagle often stay with their siblings for long periods of time, you can see up to 5 who like each other's company.

We had a golden eagle take a turkey carcass right out of the garbage not 2 minutes after I put it outside right after Thanksgiving. It swooped down and snatched the bag, took it high in the air and dropped it, taking off with just the turkey carcass!

I was standing in my back doorway on my way out the door when it happened and it scared the heck out of me!!

I haven't seen it since then but we do have juvie bald eagles all over here.
