Eagle with Fish
- To catch a fish, eagles watch the water surface from a perch or while soaring, swooping down close to the water and
- planting their curved razor sharp talons through the water and into the fish.
- This maneuver has given eagles the name raptor, which comes from a Latin word "rapere" meaning to grip or grasp.
- Rough bumps on the eagle's toes also help them hold slippery, flailing fish.
- The Bald Eagle's diet is opportunistic and varied, but most feed mainly on fish.
- In the Pacific Northwest, spawing trout and salmon provide much of the Bald Eagle's diet.
