Steller's sea eagles are some of the largest living eagles. Their wingspan may be wider than the average person is tall even while holding their hands above their head! These large raptors enjoy cold weather and spend most of their time in northern regions of the northern hemisphere along coastlines and river edges. They nest in sea cliffs or large trees and maintain a monogamous relationship with a single partner. There are believed to be about 5,000 Steller's sea eagles alive today and their populations are in decline.
