The Bald Eagle is HUGE - not easy to mistake. Occasionally we have them fly thru here (central Fl.) but the real local beauty is the Red Tail or the Red Shoulder hawks. Beautiful birds.

Kayak down the Delaware every year, see them all the time. They usually fly high, catching the thermals to glide.
However, two years ago I got within 10 feet of one feeding in a tree. Majestic is the only word that comes to mind.
