They prefer habitats near water bodies, where they can easily find fish, their primary diet. Bald eagles build some of the largest bird nests known, often reusing and adding to them each year, resulting in structures that can weigh as much as a ton. Their remarkable vision allows them to spot prey from a great distance, ensuring their role as adept hunters in their ecosystem.
