    That Eagle looks very cool especially when it makes sounds, this is why Dinosaurs never went extinct because the eagle looks more like a Raptor in the documentaries that I’ve watched.

    This is a mated pair of eagles. The female is the larger of the two. In early March in Florida, both of them together on the ground means their nest is very close by with older eaglets to feed.
