Movies often use the sound of a red-tailed hawk to represent the bald eagle. Here's what a real bald eagle call sounds like. Their call on this video is about courtship. We will likely see eggs laid soon!

Sunset, a Bald Eagle and Raptor-in-Residence here at the Alaska Raptor Center, showing off her vocalization! For such a powerful bird, the Bald Eagle has a surprisingly loud sounding call, usually a series of high-pitched whistling or piping notes. Did you know Hollywood sound editors often dub over a Bald Eagle's call, with another bird's vocalization? The piercing, earthy screams of a Red-tailed Hawk. #wildlifeeducation #baldeagle #DidYouKnow | Alaska Raptor Center
