Bald eagle soars over wilderness

A bald eagle soars through the sky above the Alaskan Wilderness.
Eagles are known for having very long, large wings, a short neck, and legs short enough to tuck into their belly feathers while they’re in flight – except when they’re fishing.
The bald eagle can fly at speeds from 20 to 40 miles per hour in normal flight and can dive at speeds more than 100 miles per hour.
