Biden signs bill to make bald eagle the national bird of the U.S.; all about the bird and why it has been chosen as the national bird

Biden signs bill to make bald eagle the national bird of the U.S.; all about the bird and why it has been chosen as the national bird

The bald eagle, a powerful symbol of American strength and freedom for over two centuries, has finally been formally declared the national bird of the United States.
President Joe Biden recently signed a bill officially designating the bald eagle as the national bird of the United States, a symbolic gesture that reinforces the bird's longstanding association with American identity. The bald eagle, known scientifically as *Haliaeetus leucocephalus*, was chosen for its majestic appearance and its representation of freedom, strength, and independence. Historically, the bald eagle was selected as the emblem for the Great Seal of the United States in 1782, symbolizing the nation's ideals. This bird, native to North America, has a significant presence in American culture, appearing on various official documents, currency, and as a symbol in numerous governmental and military insignias. The legislation not only formalizes this emblematic status but also highlights ongoing conservation efforts to protect the bald eagle, which was once on the brink of extinction due to habitat destruction and the effects of DDT but has since made a remarkable recovery, thanks to protective laws and conservation initiatives.
