In this informative portrait, acclaimed nature artist Gordon Morrison takes us deep into the wilderness for a close up look at a family of American bald eagles.Detailed color illustrations and readable text follow the developmental stages of two baby eagles as they hatch and grow plumage, learn to Xy with the help of the adult eagles, and struggle to fish and hunt on their own.Accompanying noted sketches give more in-depth information about biology, life cycle, and behavior, thereby enabling readers of all ages to develop understanding and a new respect for this majestic and powerful bird.
