Haliaetus leuccephalus. Maine (Lake Umbagog). 1873. Sept. 14. Saw a pair of Eagles, one adult the other with a little white on both head and tail, beating about over the meadows at the Outlet, like Marsh Hawks, and occasionally lighting on low stubs. They are the first that I have seen here this season. 1874. July 27. Lumen Sargent tells me that he once took a pair of young Bald Eagles from the nest and kept them alive for five years. Up to the third year they changed but little. During that year white appeared on their heads and tails. The fourth year both assumed the perfect plumage. 1876. June 3. Several birds in brown plumage near the Outlet. " 22. An immature Eagle has haunted this portion of the Lake for several days. I have repeatedly seen him fishing. He plunges more deliberately than the Fish Hawk, and strikes the water less heavily. 1879. May 23. A pair of fine adult birds haunt the stubs within rifle shot of the house. " 31. Four near together in a single cove, two adults and two young. June 7. Hearing a great uproar in the potato field behind the house I went to investigate the cause and to my surprise found at least fifty Crows collected about two brown Eagles who were standing on the ground in the middle of the field. The whole company, Eagles and all, flew on seeing me; but shortly afterwards the Eagles returned to the field, the Crows following them and beginning their clamor afresh. I could not discover what the attraction was, at least for the Eagles.
