The eagle is one of the most ancient symbols. Among different peoples, he denoted the midday sun, height, ascension, liberation from bonds, victory, courage, greatness, pride, royal origin, power, strength. An eagle flying among clouds, thunder and lightning is a symbol of true courage, the ability to overcome difficulties. That is why our picture "Eagle" hanging on the wall of your house will emphasize the high status of everyone who lives in it.
The eagle is a large bird of prey from the hawk family. The eagle has a powerful body and long, wide wings. The eagle's beak is massive, paws end with claws bent inward, and "pants" are formed on the hips with feathers. In nature, eagles are among the most formidable representatives of birds and the only creature that poses a threat to them is a man. The males help the eagles to incubate their eggs. Eagle nests are the largest birds build. Eagles build their nests at high altitudes. This is what they do to ensure safety for chicks, having an excellent observation deck. They expand and complete the nests every year. Eagle wingspan reaches 2.4 meters with a body length of up to 88 cm. Female eagles are much larger than males. The height of the eagles' flight is up to 7-9 kilometers.
Not everyone can rise to such a height airplane. Eagles can mate in flight. The eagle is present on the coats of arms of many countries of the world. In many countries, the eagle symbolized absolute power. The Aztecs made feather decorations eagle. The military elite wore cloaks embroidered with jewels and eagle feathers that resembled the wide wings of a bird of prey. The sandals were decorated with the claws of eagles. Eagles have fantastic eyesight, 6 times better than humans. Eagles fly out to hunt in daytime. The sun's rays, glare of water do not interfere with the bird; they can easily see the smallest objects and small animals in the grass with bird's-eye view. Looking at the eagle, it seems that it is slowly soaring on huge wings. If two chicks appear in the nest of eagles, the stronger will try to get rid of the other for 2 months. If a weak chick manages to survive, then then they begin live peacefully in the nest with each other. Usually a couple has two eagles per year. While the male is getting food, the female brings up and feeds babies, protects the nest. Perfect aerodynamics are vital for eagles, so if a bird loses a feather from one wing, the same feather falls out of the second. Eaglets begin to hunt on their own from 3 months. At full maturity these birds reach by 4-5 years. During the flight, the eagle soars above the ground at a speed of 200 km / h. At the sight of a potential victim, the bird can
accelerate to 320 km / h. From flight altitude, the eagle is able to see prey on the surface of 11.5 kilometers, and peripheral with a gaze, it can cover 270 degrees. Eagles are effective in hunting, catch only for their own food and for chicks. Eagles are very loyal birds, they create a pair for life. The average life expectancy is 30 years, and
some species live up to 50-60 ... After 40 years, the beak and claws of large species of eagles grow to such an extent that the birds are practically lose the ability to eat and hunt. There are two options for the further development of events: the eagle either dies or breaks its beak on stones, pulls out claws and old feathers, and six months later reborn like a phoenix to live on and live for many more years. Such strength of character one can only envy.
