We have them all over where i live, its not uncommon to see 6 or 7 sitting in a field. they build huge nest in the trees around where we live and we watch them fly around. we live by a lake and i have seen them swoop down and grab a duck then fly off, in fact today one of my teachers was mad because she raises sheep and a lamb was born last night in a the field and before she could put it in a barn an eagle swooped down and grabed it but could not carry it and dropped it and broke its legs and it died. but i think they are awsome to look at, and you dont realize how big they are til you get close to one.
