notes:

Castle Rosenburg in Lower-Austria is a beautiful place and well recognized for their marvelous raptor presentation. What you see is a Bald Eagle (Haliaeetus Leucocephalus) who is normally found only on the North American continent. Adult male eagles generally weigh about 9 pounds (approx. 7kg). Adult females weigh in at between 12 and 13 pounds (approx. 10kg). Adult eagles have a wing span of up to 7 feet (approx. 2,5 meters). Immature eagles are mottled brown and white. The distinct white head and tail of the mature bird is developed at 5 years of age. In the wild, bald eagles live to between 30 and 35 years. In captivity, they have been known to live up to 50 years.

What a beauty! which i wanted to share with you - enjoy!
