An eagle's eyesight is believed to be eight times sharper than a human's. Bald Eagles are not really bald. Eagles that breed in the Southwest and stay year-round are known as residents. Egglaying usually begins in January in the Southwest. Both parents bring food to the young eaglets.
Most nests are near streams that provide adequate food when young are in the nest.
Remote sites along waterways in Arizona's central mountains provide good habitat for the eagles. All rights reserved.
