To fly, like most winged animals.If you're trying to ask why they fly, it's for survival purposes.

Those are important, too.Also, they use their wings to swoop down on fish in the water, so that they can grab them with their talons and eat them, etc.

Do bald eagles pluck out their own feathers?
According to some, it is said that the bald eagle at around age 40 years flies to high ground and over the next 150 days knocks its beak off and allows another to grow in its place....apparently as the eagle ages the beak bends out of shape...the eagle continually bangs the beak against the rocks until the beak falls off....then a new beak takes its place.....once the new beak is in place the eagle then tears out its claws and new ones grow back in......this allows the eagle to live another 30 years or so.......the only problem I have with this is that the eagle cannot eat for those 150 days....so how does it survive.....further I have never heard nor seen an eagle that has been found without a beak.....so your guess is as good as mine ----- Edit by Thycondrius ----- Actually, eagles(including the bald eagle you mentioned) do not lose their beak or talons, unless by extreme action. The Eagle Rebirth is a Urban Legend and its not true. Normaly, losing its beak means death by loss of blood. Eagles, like all other animals, cannot "Choose" to extend their lifespam byy any means, and live normally till 30Y old. So "NO", eagles do not put out their beaks and talons and cannot support 5Monts of starvation.(They are not bears for christ sake)
