'''Eagle''' refers to large diurnal birds of prey from the order Accipitriformes, family Accipitridae, and characterized by resemblance to vultures when in flight, but bearing a fully-feathered head, large hooked beaks, robust body, and powerful talons capable of taking and killing live prey.  They also have extremely sharp vision, allowing them to locate and track prey from an extreme distance.  Because of their strength and majestic appearance, eagles have been prominently displayed as heraldic symbols of war and earthly power.
