  • Who would win American bald eagle or the golden eagle? :O

  • bald eagles have over 7,000 fethers

  • This video just definitely helped me calm down a bit.

  • Soooooooo elegant

  • That sure is a big crow

  • Nice footage, I need to animate a flying eagle for a project I am working on and this really helps me see the eagle flying at different angles.

  • Looks like one tasty piece of flying meat.

  • just saw one today not by any rivers but out in the open like by houses and stuff standing on top of the highest tree.

  • Did you know that the original national animal for the U.S. was originally going to be a Turkey? Of course I also find it ironic that this animal is the national emblem but yet it's endangered while it should have been respected...I guess that set's the tone of the hypocrisy of the U.S. from here on out...

  • Cool!

  • this should be the new logo for USSF! not that childish crap they currently have!!!

  • this is the greatest non human animal on the planet.

  • @TylerThrashPeace Corgis are superior!

  • Magnificent animal

  • America...

  • interestingly the bald eagle is a scavenger who prefer to steal food than 2 catch its own. thats why there was a movement to make the turkey the natl bird. they said the bald eagle wa a theif of bad moral character.

  • that is good. I would love when the bald eagles multiply since they are wonderful birds and don't deserve in any way to be endangered. I would like a lot of individuals of this species around

  • a person i know from aurora, illinois saw one in her back yard & took a photo of it! i have never even seen one in my life!

  • Probably my favorite bird of prey. It still would be even if it wasn't the national bird of America because it just looks so cool. You know that when they were trying to decide what the national bird would be it was up against the turkey? Nothing against turkeys, they taste great, but they can't compare to the bald eagle.

  • Our White-tailed eagles are bigger and meaner

  • Eagles are beautiful birds, I wish I could see one in person.

  • Lol, you're from Romania? What a laugh. Your GDP per person is 11,000, ours is 47,123. You're a former COMMUNIST country, for god sake. You are a joke. Your country's only legacy is that it's a huge heroin hub.

    No one even cares about Romania, anyway. No one pays any attention to you. I guess it must suck to live in the shadow of a titan like the US, huh? The strongest, richest and most powerful nation in the history of mankind, that dwarfs even Rome in influence.

    Keep being jealous, kid.

    In what way does something that you claim is true 500+ Years ago somehow is relevant to the discussion of the strongest nation of man kind?

  • Comment removed

  • @LeahWalentosky

    Name 1

    The Aztecs? Unless you are telling me US currently cannot take on the Aztecs now (:P) or at their height, they arent a contender.

  • @LeahWalentosky

    First of all, China is not doing better than the US. Their economic power, combined with HDI, Military power is no where near that of the Americans. Their best city is less developed than any of the major American cities.

    Secondly, the Military spending isn't what bankrupted the US. It is a whole set of economic problems that is amplified by the government bailouts.

    Thirdly, Aztecs had a higher production rate than we do now? WTF are you fucking mad?

  • @LeahWalentosky

    |How many items in the store do not say ‘Made In China’|

    That is somehow supposed to indicate something other than China is the factory of the world? (Not a benchmark for power at all when they don't own the majority of the companies making these items)

    |they produce far more than we do|

    In terms of by weight? Maybe, in terms of value? Nop

    |and have far more technologies in medicine and science then we do|

    You are joking right? China is still playing catchup here

    |The goverment spends more on jails then education, that is a fact|

    Then how come the department of Education consistently receives more than double the funding than the department of Justice? Thats the ENTIRE department of justice. If we are just comparing dep of education with prisons, well the ratio in 2010 was more of 6X greater than Prison spending.

    | I refuse to belive my country is perfect|

    Never said it was, but you are praising and blaming the wrong people

  • Comment removed

  • @LeahWalentosky

    Of course the government pays more to keep prisoners(per prisoner) locked up than to educate students! Prisoners need to eat, medical care, security, etc.

    That is just common sense!

  • Comment removed

  • @cr9527 What does any of that have to do with this bird?

  • @the0real0joker

    Nothing, just replying to an equally irrelevant comment.

  • @cr9527 yes but the point behind a prison is to PUNISH and make them never want to go back, not to baby the prisoners. And the idea is that if we spend more on educating the fools they will be less likely to commit crimes that send them to jail.

    So no it's not common sense, its more like a common fallacy.

  • @amknafla

    For the most part, ex-prisoners do not want to return to the prison. The living conditions of the prisons are still bad, despite providing them with food, and all of the other stuff.

    As for redirecting money to education from prisons, there are many problems with this.

    US offers more or less free education for grade 1-12. Spending extra money won't make those who won't attend, attend, nor will giving everyone a free post secondary education reduce crime in any significant way.

  • @LeahWalentosky

    Finally, Native Americans before European colonization's life expectancy was in their 30-40s. Exactly identical to the early European settlers until the industrial revolution.

    You need to learn more about what you are talking about before you blabber about spewing nonsense.

  • @LeahWalentosky

    Got a source for Aztec assembly line?

    |They had doctors preforming surgeries and hospitals running.|

    So did every other civilization at the time. Surgery isn't something new, their efficacy is.

    |The technology of a chinampa, they were able to grow on lakes and even on oceans. |

    Firstly, the Chinampa is NOT an important innovation, secondly, it won't work in deep waters, and finally, you cannot plant ANY crop in Sea water.

  • @LeahWalentosky |They found graves through the Americas and skeleton remains of people living in their early seventies that date back long before Columbus| No shit. Who the f*ck said Columbus first found America? |found that they had cures for cancer| Bullsh*t |ideas of democracy.| Great, a 2000 year old idea was also thought of elsewhere. |metros that date back to 700 A.D| There were metros in Europe way before this. |They would of done fine.| They STILL arent doing fine!

  • The US has the largest GDP, the strongest and most technologically advanced military with 10x the expenditures of the next largest military, its cultural influence pervades every single home in the rest of the world, people from every other country watch our films, television shows, read our books, etc. We invented about half if not more of the great technological inventions in the last 100 years.

    Aztecs ain't got shit on us. They can have fun with their ritual human sacrifice.

  • Comment removed

  • @LeahWalentosky

    All of what you said are more of a direct result of the current American culture than of the military spending. The major problems are caused by social and economic aspects, not political (including government spending)

  • @catalynoo

    Lol. Well for being a country "filled 99% with retarded people" we sure did invent far more, make more money and be far more educated than your shithole country. We invented electricity, lightbulbs, the airplane, mass automobile production, computers, etc. Pretty much everything useful that has been made in the last century or two is because of us.

    So you're welcome. Nerd.

  • @DaimothCL you are wrong again.. traian vuia invented the airplane capable of fliyng etc.. a romanian guy invented the pen, a romanian guy invented the cure for diabetis , a romanian invented the most plat lcd in the world , Stefan odobleja was the father of cybernetics . use google and find it out.. you just came with the money and than taked credit for it.. so yes, i think usa people are retarded ;)

  • @geckosandreps1

  • that is really cool!!!!!

  • Actually it was the banning of DDT that saved the bald eagle

  • ONE OF THE VERY FEW BEAUTIES LEFT IN AMERICA

  • lol at 2:06 he looked startled

  • That bird freaked me out when I saw it face-to-face. Didn't know that it was big as a medium to large size dog.

  • @elchamber tell me about it when i was like six i saw my first one and it was like as big as me lol

  • proud to be an american

  • why are they called bald eagles, they have feathers all over

  • @gtwnrepn

    I think it's because their heads are white, giving them the appearance that they're bald. I could be wrong, though.

  • @hotdogman67 "Bald" used to mean "white" long ago in English.

  • @annevmasters

    That's cool. I learn new things everyday.

  • Bald eagles are now my favorite bird!

  • cool video

  • @Love4SK Oh my god!! You're retarded they are amazing hunters!!

  • beautiful bird

  • ok, i made somthing up about a 'bald' eagle: there comes a time in every eagles life when they need to grow some hair. now say that like a slightlly high pitched farmer. you know, i think animals are really cool, so do you think that some how there could be some type of animal that is not known to man?

  • Bald Eagles are my favorite birds.

  • Dick Cheney doesn't. His favorite meal is baby bald eagle soup.

  • 12 people are already dead.they breathe air and eat food but it doesnt mean they are alive!

  • the bird is the word..

    

  • i love how when the fly low by the water there wing tips just tip the water

  • people dont realize how amazing these birds are until they see one in real life and see that the wing span is usually bigger than you are.

  • The bald eagle is a carnivore, not a good hunter though. Its kind of a pussy actually, just steals scraps from inperial eagles but would never challenge imperial eagle out of fear. basically a scavenger

  • Dont fuck with an eagle hes the king of the sky

  • The 8 people who disliked this video are Russian communists raised in the Soviet era.

  • yo i thought there was only one american bald eagle lfet in the world,im watching a live feed on one!if u want the link just ask

  • @BrooklynAlchemist youre fucking retarded

  • @junskey and your a dick head,go fuck yourself

  • alguien sabe como puedo bajar este video?

  • Eagle at the end of the video.

    Eagle: what do you mean smile? I am smiling!

    Eagles are huge, and beautifull. :)

    the 8 dislikers got there lunch was stolen by hungry eagles.

  • the majority of bald eagles live in Canada, interesting

  • I once saw TWO bald eagles in the same tree! It was really amazing. But they were on the tiniest island with only a few trees. It was really sad :(

  • just a beautiful creature

  • Beautiful creatures but the Endangered Species Act is a failure and an altogether horrible piece of legislation that is just another attempt by people to control what happens naturally. Most animals die off...it is just a part of nature. Just let them go peacefully.

  • I live in North Carolina,near the coast, and I have seen about 6 bald eagles in the past 3 years. Such an amazing bird. Thanks for posting.

  • @kcarroll64 in the sandstone falls area of summers county west virginia, I have seen them on 3 different occasions. the estimated population in the area is around 14 birds i think. It's awesome to see them making a comeback.

  • Such a amazing bird, Everytime I look in its eyes, and I always shed a tear

  • and thats typicalyou mist the point. the Eagles have been a part of our culture since before any of you white peole evin new about our land and after you or any other white people drop america on us and put us threw HELL. you can not take our symbol away from us you stole every thing els from us and rather or not your family did any thing witch thay probably did. america has nothing to be proud of as a country that should not exist

  • @tainoculture if you would have quit smoking your pipes long enough to advance as a civilization then the white man wouldn't have been able to take your land..

  • Comment removed

  • best eagles ever, theyre the gangsters of teh air

  • thats the perfect animal to represent america... beautiful... scary as fuck, but beautiful

  • @GEOdozer420 it should not represent america it should represent the natives of this land america has done nothing but evil in this land and to its living creatures

  • @tainoculture No. It represents all of America.

  • @IslandThunder84 america massacred millions and millions of native americans you stole the land and our culture and our way of life your founding fathers said such things the only good indian is a dead indian. thay also owned many slave. and you kidnap millions and millions of africans and beat thim half to death you live on the bones of your victims with no sympathy you stand on the bones of the natives on the bones of the slaves and the puerto ricans and mexicans

  • @tainoculture Ok, but it represents all of America.

  • @IslandThunder84 no it does not

  • @tainoculture Yes it does.

  • @IslandThunder84 umm no it does not you white people can not own a typ of animel so go talk your bullshit to a nother white bitch becuse im to smart for you

  • @tainoculture

    1. I am not American.

    2. You are too smart for me? At least I can spell.

    3. It represents America. Deal with it.

    4. I'm blocking you :)

  • @IslandThunder84

    3.it does not represent america so fuck you

    2. i bet you are white so you are still a bitch

    3. white people can not own it

    4. your just sad

  • @IslandThunder84 you white people think you can own every thing you are all discusting

  • @tainoculture I'm a huge supporter of First Nations but you're attitude is disgusting. The fact that you judge people by the colour of their skin makes you no better than the people you say you hate so much. In fact maybe you're worse because you're a hypocrite too. There's nothing wrong with being proud of who you are but using pride to hate on others is childish. Yeah there are some pretty fucked up white people out there but not all are and not all deserve your racist stereotypes.

  • @PaganBorn79 name one culture white people have not attact and name one ressone we should not hate you

  • @tainoculture Quit thinking like a child. Not every white person attacked you and if you think all white people (or people of any colour for that matter) are all same based on the colour of their skin then I truely feel sorry for you. That's the very same ideology that the nazis had.

  • @PaganBorn79 its not the colour of skin thats just what you tell yourself so you feel good its your family and who you come from you live on the bones of my people and you live on the bones of the slaves on the bones of the mexicans and puerto ricans and hawiians

  • @tainoculture You keep feeding the wrong wolf and see where it gets you in life. It's time to move ahead instead of dwelling on the past. Spreading hatred on yt is not going to get you anywhere. Anyway, I've got better things to do than have childish youtube arguments.

  • @PaganBorn79 its funny how you keep wantin us to in your words move ahead i guss thats so you can keep doing anything you want and get away with it

  • @tainoculture lol, actually moving ahead means progress and I didn't fucking do anything to you or your family thanx. GROW UP KID!!!!!!! You're barking up the wrong tree here, I would defend the First Nations any day but not you, you are an immature jerk. I'm done here, my dogs have more common sense than you.

  • @PaganBorn79 your white ass will get nothing from us you know nothing about our nations and i grew up on the navajo rez haha you would not last one sec on the rez you sad little white girl i bet your family killd millions

  • @tainoculture lmao How can you say you grew up on a Navajo reserve when it's quite clear that you haven't grown up at all??? I actually know quite a bit about about the First Nations and 2 of my best friends are Cree thank you very much. I love how you know so much about people you have never met. Tell me what colour are my eyes?? Things must be pretty sad in the U.S. maybe one day you will get to travel and see how civilized people act in civilized countries.

  • @PaganBorn79 you know nothing about what we go threw so piss of white bitch you live in our land and take a rong step we will slap you back to europe

  • @tainoculture Huh. That is strange. I don't remember doing any of that. It is almost as if, when all that was going on, MY ancestors were over in Czechoslovakia living on the end of starvation in abject poverty. Yet I AM white, and you sound very sure of yourself. Maybe I should go see a doctor about my memory problems.

  • @TheNotoriousCheeto also i dont know what you belive but try and have some respect from our point of view

  • @tainoculture YOU WHITE PEOPLE THINK YOU CAN TAKE OUR LAND OUR CULTURE AND NOW TAKE ANIMELS TO REPRESENT YOU YOU MAKE ME SICK THE Eagles DO NOT BELING TO YOU

  • @tainoculture Wich one do you like more? Super Mario or Sonic the Hedgehog

  • @KawaiiLukiie wll un like you i have a life and friends so nether

  • @tainoculture You shud have choose for Sushi

  • U suck just get of youtube cutejay86

  • you americans r too cocky and think u can do wut u want with other ppl's country

  • @cutejay86 I GOT 6COCKS 

  • @Meteepee xD

  • every time i see a bald eagle it flies EXTREMELY high and by the time my dad and i get the cameras out it goes in the clouds and is never seen again. i am just amazed how these stay so close for all the nature shows.

  • Now it is time to start selling mounted bald eagle heads on plaques to people in countries that hate Americans. Sounds like a gold mine. :-)

  • bald eagles often lay 2-3 eggs..but only 1 chick survive...the other 1/2 are eaten by the surviver......funny how it it american national symbol......considering thats how the government trat the ppl in their 'nest'

  • The eagle, Always looks pissed off,Swoops down on prey and steals it to kill and eat it, Face is white, And leaves everything in chaos after its done. This is the perfect animal to represent this wasteland called America. Its either that or a pig.

  • @tzepesh20 It's no use arguing with him. People like that are simply stupid...not ignorant. Ignorance can be overcome, but stupid is forever. After all...he's probably a mid-20s pothead who still lives at home, works at McDonalds, and will never be a productive member of society.

    There should be a deportation policy for people like that. You know? Send them to Antarctica or somewhere like that where they can't bother anyone while they die slow, miserable deaths.

  • @JohnBoy122486 please don't send stupid, ignorant Americans to Antarctica. a: it's too close to me here in Australia and b: it's 1 of the last places on earth they haven't f##ked up yet! Didn't they buy Alaska for this kind of thing, you know, Sarah Palin and the like.

  • people who hunt bald eagles... CAN'T U JUST GIVE THEM A BREAK?!?! what did bald eagles ever do to u??!?!?! when u hunt bald eagles u r hunting Americas symbol. i can understand if its a cow or something like that but why did it have to be a bald eagle?!?!?!

  • @tzepesh20 i know its also really sad... i really love this bird... its my school mascot it would be sad to see these birds go extinct

  • I wish I could take my gun over there and just fire some shots at it. Majestic my ass.

  • @saywutnub50 thats just mean! don't u know that the bald eagle  is an endangered species! i really like the bald eagle and when i grow up i think i will start a progam to help save this endangered species.

  • @NothingButBarbeque haha fag. you must be one of those 10 year old animal lovers? Well if you have a pet you better hide it because i'm going to snap it's neck and rape it
