When you see a bald eagle in movies, it is often accompanied by this fearsome sound: [Red-tailed Hawk Call - “Skreeee!”]. But in reality, a bald eagle sounds more like this: [Bald Eagle Call “Eee e-e-e!”]. Not quite as scary is it? Bald eagles are often seen throughout the winter in Lethbridge, as they depend on the open water for food.
