Eagle

Eagles are large birds with wingspans 6½ to 7½ feet in width. They stand about 2½ to 3 feet tall and weigh about 13 lbs. These birds have heavy talons and large beaks with a sharp hooked end. Eagles are known to carry prey up to 15 lbs. An eagle will also kill and start to eat animals that are 5 times the eagles size, up to 80 lbs. The largest eagles tend to be fish-eating or sea eagles, while other types of eagles will eat snakes or small animals. Coloring is dependent on the species of eagle from dark browns with a white head, to fully brown, to various grays ranging from black to white. The beaks can be bright yellowish orange to black. Eagles will fly at a prey and attack with both sets of talons, then attack with the beak.
