...considering the fact that the 'National Symbol' is really nothing but a fish buzzard! You should see those things in Alaska, during the salmon runs, they're everywhere, but they aren't usually eating anything live, they prefer the dead ones. BWahahahahaha!
Beauty...
I have seen them taking carrion (racoons) beside the freeway in the Twin Cities area. Poor racoons seem to be endangered too, better get 'em listed.
Back in December of 2002 my daughter and I saw two of the things swooping over a park in Dover, Delaware. We took it as an omen that the Philadelphia Eagles were sure to go all the way that year. So much for omens!
Does this mean we can bring back DDT?
They are fairly common in Northern Michigan. I've seen them by Lake Michigan, and also even inland flying over the hunting camp.

They're all over Florida now, and they drop pieces of dead fish in my yard. Maybe I'll find out what they taste like, with hot-sauce, of course............FRegards

We have a pair nesting about a mile from my home in Washington state.
I've seen a pair, male and female, doing what comes natural out on the Olympic peninsula. It's really quite spectacular, they fly to a great height, merge and get it on, and begin to fall. A hundred feet from the ground, they part and fly off, whether she's happy or not.
Even if they are no longer endangered, they are still protected under the federal Bald Eagle Protection Act.
This positive will be twisted into a negative by the left. The vast majority of the left thinks that Bush is ruining the environment. When I ask one of these harpies to provide an example, they either change the subject or trot out "EVERYONE knows it's true" talking points. Watch for the hit Bush will take on this. It will resemble the arsenic hypocrisy.
