Golden eagle — size comparison — facts and sources

The golden eagle inhabits mountains and open country, patrolling extensive territories. It attacks mammals and birds from the air or perches and also uses carrion.

Pairs nest on rock ledges or trees and may return to the same area over successive seasons. Feathered legs extending to the toes distinguish it from many large raptors.
