Vocalizing

Published:

Description

The zoo had three Bald Eagles in the exhibit. This was one of the smaller ones who would move around a lot. They all kept calling out to each other.

Did you know that eagles do not have vocal cords? Sound is produced in the syrinx, a bony chamber located where the trachea divides to go to the lungs. (source)

this is an amazing photograph. I love the feel of it, and the visual quality is amazing. It is as if I can feel it!!! I love how you can see the eyes, and the shadow of the jaw really adds to the feel of it. The background is nice, because you can really just focus on the eagle itself. It's amazing. That's all I can say!!! uh............. Extraordinary bird.
