An eagle is a primary consumer. It is a carnivorous bird of prey that primarily hunts and feeds on other animals, such as rodents, fish, and smaller birds. As an apex predator, it plays a crucial role in maintaining the balance of its ecosystem.
They are secondary consumers. It is sure that larger animals will eat them like sharks and seals.
A bald eagle is a secondary consumer, as it primarily feeds on smaller animals like fish, rodents, and other birds. Primary consumers are herbivores that feed directly on producers.

Perhaps the term you are seaching for is 'apex predator'.
In the food chain you provided, the primary consumer is the squirrel. The squirrel feeds on the oak tree, which is a producer. This positions the squirrel as the first consumer in the chain, while the owl and eagle are secondary and tertiary consumers, respectively, that prey on the squirrel.
Despite the berries inside the mouse, the eagle is still a carnivore (a bird of prey).
In the food chain involving an oak tree, squirrel, owl, and eagle, the consumers are the squirrel, owl, and eagle. The squirrel consumes the acorns from the oak tree, making it a primary consumer. The owl and eagle are both secondary consumers, preying on the squirrel. Thus, all three animals are consumers, with the squirrel being the primary and the owl and eagle as higher-level consumers.

it is a consumer
Normally yes. It preys upon smaller birds/mammals which are mainly primary consumers such as rabbits and sparrows. In the case of the rabbit the eagle is always the secondary consumer as the rabbit eats grass which is a producer as it makes its own food from the sun. However, if the eagle preys upon creatures like ferrets or mink then it becomes a quaternerary consumer as these examples are tertiary consumers as they prey upon rabbits and other small mammals. Hope this helps.Yes.
