    1. Eagles fly alone at a highaltitude and not with sparrows

    or

    mix

    with

    other

    smaller

    birdslike geese. Birds of a feather

    flock together. No other bird

    goes

    to

    the

    height

    of

    the

    eagle.

    Eagles fly with eagles.

    Never

    in

    a

    flock.

    5. The Eagle tests before ittrusts.

    When

    a

    female

    eagle

    meetsamaleandtheywantto

    mate, she flies down to earth

    She

    flies

    back

    into the air with the male still

    pursuing her. Once she has

    reached

    a

    height

    high

    enough

    the

    The faster it falls, the faster he chases

    until he reaches it and has to catch it

    before itfallstotheground,thenbring it

    back to the female eagle. The female

    eagle grabs the twig and flies to a much

    higheraltitude

    pursued

    by

    the

    male

    until

    she perceives it high enough, and then

    goes

    on

    for

    hours,

    with

    the

    increasing until the female eagle is

    6. Eagles prepare for training. When aboutto lay eggs, the female and male eagle

    identify

    a

    place

    very

    high

    on

    a

    cliff

    where

    no

    predatorscan reach; themale flies toearth

    and at first, picks thorns and lays them on

    the

    crevice

    of

    the

    cliff,

    then

    flies

    to

    earthagain to collect twigs which he lays in the

    intendednest.Thenhepicksthornsandlays

    themon

    top

    of

    the

    twigs.

    On

    them,

    he

    lays

    soft

    grass

    covering the thorns and then

    When this first layering is

    complete the male eagle

    runs

    back

    to

    earth

    and

    picks more thorns, grass

    and rugsand lays them on

    top

    of

    the

    thorns,

    thenplucks his feathers to

    complete the nest. The

    thorns

    on

    the

    outside

    of

    the nest protect it from

    possible intruders. Both

    male

    and

    female

    eagles

    participate in raising the

    eaglefamily.
