Diet
Many studies have reflected that the primary foods of white-tailed eagles are fish and water birds. These are the
primary food as well for other sea eagle species. However, unlike most Haliaeetus, including the Bald Eagles and
Steller's sea Eagles, the water birds tend to take the primary position in the
diet.

Habits and Lifestyle
White-tailed eagles are diurnal and spend much of their day perched on trees or crags, and may often not move for
hours. Pairs regularly roost together, often near to their nest, either on a
crag or tree or crevices, overhung ledges
or small isolated trees on a crag.
Habitat
White-tailed eagles are found along rocky coastlines, estuaries and lochs near the sea, although they will also
range
inland, especially juveniles. The species is very widely distributed, with strongholds in Russia and Norway.
