Baby Birdorable: Golden Eagle

If you think our Birdorable birds are cute as adults, what about when they are babies? Below are some baby photos (shared via Flickr Creative Commons) of the Golden Eagle. Golden Eagles build huge nests, large bowls of sticks, in high places like cliffs, tall trees or telephone poles. One to four eggs are laid, and incubation lasts 40-45 days.
