There are bald eagles throughout the state of Illinois. Consider yourself very lucky though if you see them in person. The largest population of bald eagles is believed to be at the Newton Lake in the small southeastern town of Newton, Illinois

# Hawks use their feet to hold the dead prey and use their beaks to tear off pieces of the prey. They swallow and store the pieces in their crops. This allows them to eat very fast and get up off the ground into the air where they are safe. # While hawks eat, they mantle over their food. This means that they hide the food with their outstretched wings and tail. # The next day after eating, hawks cough up a pellet that contains only the fur or feathers of the animals that they ate. Hawks usually do not swallow the larger bones and the smaller bones are digested by their strong stomach juices. Answer found on http://www.frontiernet.net/~friendswithfeathers/index.html

All birds have nests, ostriches and chickens too! Hawks do have nests, but they make it in high places so that other predators can't reach it.

Most waterfowl fly at speeds of 40 to 60 mph, with many species averaging roughly 50 mph. A common flying speed of ducks and geese is between 40 and 50 miles per hour. Geese normally fly at about the same speed as ducks. Which is faster when trying to escape danger? Depends on the individual bird.

The hawk is a messenger bird. Usually when we see a hawk it means to pay attention because a message is coming to you. Hawks represent clear sightedness, being observant, our far memory and guardianship. They also bring courage, wisdom, illumination, creativity and truth. Hawks give us the ability to see the larger picture in life. They can help you to overcome problems and make wise use of opportunities.

A penguin lives in Antarctica and an eagle lives in trees. Also, eagles can fly while penguins cannot. Penguins have feet suitable for walking, while eagles have talons adapted for catching and holding prey.

They don't stay with their parents. Before the baby hawks can fly the parents leave the nest until the next year leaving the babies alone. If they don't learn how to fly. . . their dead.

what do red- tailed hawk eat

I just took a video of a red-tailed hawk eating a large rattlesnake. I was about ten feet away and the hawk tried to fly, but appeared pretty woozy and landed 20 ' away and let me approach it again! It had eaten the head off the snake. Talons and beak were covered in blood--the snake's head was missing. I went away for 20 minutes and came back and the hawk was back at the snake again. I will post the video on Youtube. Look for wildmandl and Hawk With Rattlesnake,

Owls are called birds or prey because the relate to other birds of prey, like hawks and eagles. Birds of prey have sharp talons and beak for ripping meat apart. They hunt rodents and insects and snakes and frogs and other smaller birds. Owls are a unique bird of prey because they are nocturnal, which means the come out at night.

All birds are warm blooded.

Very few hawks hunt in groups. Most likely, a "pack" of hawks together are migrating, and all taking advantage of the same air currents. It is also possible for a family - parents and the newly fledged young - to be seen together for a few days. One species of hawk that does hunt in groups is the Harris's hawk, but they rarely soar. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harris%27s_Hawk I think it's also likely if you saw a group of "hawks" soaring together that they were actually vultures.

The term hawk can be used in several ways. However, the subfamily of the Accipitridae often known as the "true" hawks, including all members of Accipiter and the closely related genera Melierax, Urotriorchis, Erythrotriorchis and Megatriorchis are carnivorous birds.

Their eyes are exceptional, but all birds of prey have good eyes. The others are around the average for hawks, eagles, kites etc

Yes, hawks may occasionally prey on young koalas.
