Bald eagles tend to live and nest near coastlines, rivers, lakes, wet prairies, and coastal pine lands in North America from Alaska and Canada in the north, to Florida nd Baja California in the south. The bald eagle can fly 20-40 mph in normal flight and can dive at speeds in excess of 100 mph. Bald is a derivation of balde , an Old English word meaning white. The eagle was named for its white feathers, and not for a lack of feathers. Parrots are primarily forest dwellers of tropical zones around the world.
Parrots eat a wide variety of substances including fruit, seeds, buds, nectar, and pollen.
Occasionally, insects or other meat will be eaten. All have zygodactylus feet, two toes that point foward and two toes that point backward. Most members of the parrot family also have strongly-hooked beaks. Some larger macaws and cockatoos have a life span of more than 75 years. Barbados sheep were originally native to the Barbary Coast in Africa.
