Eagle. 
EAGLE. — A name given to the larger species of the Falcon family, 
differing in little hut size from the true falcons. There seem to be three 
well ascertained native species ; the Golden Eagle, the Osprey, and 
what we call Eagle, from its frequent occurrence, and which we shall 
now introduce.
