There has been a wonderful resurgence in the bald eagle population where I live and I get to see them fairly often fishing on the river near where they nest. I never saw one in the wild until a few years ago. They are such amazing animals!
We just got 1 of those and some guy fly it for teaching at a place with several eagles and falcons.
We have the Golden eagle, and the largergest eagle here is the white tailed eagle / sea eagle Haliaeetus albicilla thats related to the bald headed eagle.
I remember when i was cycling in downtown Aarhus, the police did not like i was sitting on the handlebars with my back to the direction of travel.
And even if i cycle better that way than many ppl do the right way around the police still told me to cycle in a normal way
