Juvenile Bald Eagles in the Wild

All of the Eagles in this gallery were photographed in the wild. Scroll down to see the photographs.
****************************************************************
For their first 3 to 5 years, Juvenile Bald Eagles are a subdued mixture of chocolate brown with varying amounts of white over the body, tail and underwings. Adult plumage develops with sexual maturity.

Both Adults and Juveniles can weigh 7 to 14 pounds with a 7 foot wing span. Their physical features are identical. However - because Juvenile plumage is longer and thicker - Juveniles actually are larger than they will be as mature, adults. Sometimes mistaken for a Golden Eagle, young Bald Eagles have more white mottled into their coloration.

Terrific pictures! Yes, your shots let me verify that what we have is a young eagle "screaming" around! We weren't sure, but now, with your gallery, it's a positive ID! Thanks for sharing!

Thanks for your hard work in providing information and photos of Juvenile Bald Eagles. I have used your information to verify that I saw a minimum of six (6) juvenile Bald Eagles in the trees of my back yard this morning on the south shore of Lake Iamonia near Tallahassee, FL. I watched then for a while as they were in no hurry to leave, one was as close as 30 yards and very beautiful. It was an awesome experience indeed. They all left at about the same time which allowed me to get a count of not less than six (6). Until then I had not realized there were as many in the area. Thanks Again, Royce
