The following are a few of the most conspicuous species: Bald Eagle, (Haliaetus leucoccphahis).—The appearance of the adult Bald Eagle, our National emblem, with its con- spicuous white head and tail, is familiar to all; but the im- mature birds, as shown by several of the specimens, lack the white in their plumage. These birds are found usually near water, and their food is chiefly fish. These they sometimes catch for themselves, but if ospreys are found in the vicinity, they are watched by the eagles, and often robbed of their hard-earned prey..
