That was a great vid 👍👌👍! Those feather layers & colors.. wow ! Interesting how he is constantly in surveillance of his surroundings. He jumps out -leaves - then pops back in the pool. 😍😍😍. Wonderful
This is why I don't eat any kind of chicken turkey or poultry anymore, because I love birds so much. And it's always wonderful to have an owner taking care of a beautiful golden eagle. And I think it's very cute to see the bird twitching its tail feathers to get dry. 😍
Probably a Fledgling that was abandoned by the parents, and being raised in a Center for large raptors until old enough. Still, majestic, and birbs love their bathtime!
I am muslim. islam is my religion cuz there’s laws against just getting one as many people don’t know nearly enough how to handle them. They take a lot of time to train and be with.
Those are falconry flying harnesses. Birdy and handler trust each other a lot, so bird is not gonna fly away willy nilly in an environment they feel safe in (like taking a bath here). So you can see there are little strings attached, but nothing holding the bird back, and bird is free to go about as it pleases. However, Birds of Prey are wild animals and very skittish ones at that, so in a new environment, or transporting between places where the bird will be free flying and doing falconry stuff, there are longer strings that the handler will tie to the harnesses and wrap around his glove to keep the bird tethered and safe, as well as to keep them from going after any random prey critter (pigeons, squirrels, etc) they see before they get where they’re going and can be let loose to free-fly
Three years later, I came across this video and your comments. They do not get attached to humans and they see them just a security, i.e. owner provides food. They could never be pets or show affection, but they can be trained for falconry. If you wish to form some sort of bond (and all it means is that the animal gets used to your presence and feels comfortable), you must be with them every day. I suggest you look up the story of Scout the Golden Eagle and Martin Tyner of Southwest Wildlife Foundation of Utah (now Enoch Wildlife Rescue). Scout has been Martin's companion for over 18 years.
people who own or work with these birds mostly use them for falconry in which the eagle can fly away if it really wanted to during the hunts usually have a GPS attached to them in case they fly off as imprinted birds (like this one) wouldnt survive on their own very well/ want human interaction which can be dangerous
Serbia Strong No that's not its meaning, but its a little confusing. Most animals raised from birth will imprint on the person raising them - if that person is present and participating in its life. Wildlife specialists can care for an animal without imprinting by staying remote as much as possible. In the case of raptor birds, a full grown bird can be taken from the wild and imprinted by a human - legally - by a very long and well regulated process which (in the US, by federal laws) requires a good deal of training of the keeper as well as the bird. Once imprinted, the bird can fly free and will usually come back to its keeper. www.wikihow.com/Become-a-Falconer There are different levels, and only those that achieve the top level can keep eagles. I have no idea if raising an eagle from an egg is legal, since it clearly does not meet the standards of Falconry. Permits are involved.
Many years later, I read this and perhaps the simplest explanation is a dictionary definition. Imprint (of a young animal) = come to recognize (another animal, person, or thing) as a parent or other object of habitual trust. For instance, "the bird thought I was its mother and imprinted on me".
@Last Name Here he was hatched and raised in captivity. Those are jesses, something to assist the falconer in falconry. If you notice, he isn't chained to anything so if he wanted to he could fly away
This is called "Falconry" and it's not keeping an eagle as a pet, but instead training it and teaching it tricks , and yes, depending on the place it is legal
falconry is also the most regulated sport in the US and many other countries where u need years of training/ experience to be a master falconer and to get an eagle in the US u need an eagle falconry licence which requires 2 years of experience with eagles on top of a mastery falconer licence this eagle was hand raised / born in captivity and wouldnt be releasable to the wild IE it would be put down according to the law

Eagles can never be pets. Sometimes, due to the nature of an injury, they cannot be released into the wild, after being rescued, and they are kept in rehabilitation centres. Or, as other comments suggest, they are used for falconry (and probably released when they are mature, so that they can find a mate).
How lucky this person is to interact w this majestic bird this way
They make such soft sounds for such big birds.
Such an adorable juvenile!
what a beautiful bird!!
Suzi B. I agree
Suzi B. Lots of work for a bird like this. 7 years of being a falconer and in some cases even then you cant own one without specific eagle training.
Cutest bird bath ever💓
Must be so awesome to get to be so close to these mighty & majestic birds of prey!
Beautiful
Yeah sure
Amazing
It is bit you still have to repect and be carefull around them...unlike the guy hosing this bird down....
That bird loves that. This is very cool to see
That was a great vid 👍👌👍! Those feather layers & colors.. wow ! Interesting how he is constantly in surveillance of his surroundings. He jumps out -leaves - then pops back in the pool. 😍😍😍. Wonderful
After, he looks at the camera like: "Did you guys see this?" one the guy hid the hose

Seeing an eagle have fun in the water is a rare sight. All animals deserve to have peace, fun and safety.
Glad to see you are are taking care of these great Birds I like watching birds
O think I love it almost as much as he does! Thanks so much for sharing this video!

description says 2014 imprint so likely a falconry bird
Beautiful and strong bird.
stunningly beautiful bird
Such beauty, interesting to observe💚
Now, if you really wanted to make that little swim fun for the bird, you should've tossed a few minnows into the pool as a snack.
Shes soo gorgeous😍
What a beautiful mature Golden Eagle;
It is not fully matured, This is a juvenile ... this Golden Eagle has some white feathers and that indicates it is less than 5 years old.
This Golden Eagle would fly away in a second if it didn't have a chain holding it back !!
I guess the owner replied to a comment and stated that "she was raised from the egg"
Juveniles have such pretty tails
stunning bird
Wings tapped camera...so peaceful to watch
Ur are blessed by nature hats off u take the cake
♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️🥀🥀🥀🥀🥀🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹MASACT.

Damn I want an eagle now.
Ahmed Zubair Me too 😊😎

I am muslim. islam is my religion they are quite dangerous that’s why
Beautiful
so cute :-)
It would be nice to know the story behind this magnificent bird :)
Why are their legs tied up like that?

Looks like my Wife after taking a shower!
Ang bait nman ng bald eagle😮😮.
This is cool but why isnt that person just letting the bird have its nice bath, without interfering??
Wow
Talons...600PSI
just bathing my golden eagle... no big deal.
Look like he was enjoying the water did you raise him from a young bird
Yes from day one she was hatched in a incubator.
Awww
Beautiful mate
What kind of Fox is that ?
I'm just curious do they get attached to there owners who ever takes care of them like Parots ? Man that would be so awesome to have a a pet .

Bath time with Daddy!
Good 😱😱
Why is he on the chain?

Neat!
❤️🦅❤️🦅❤️🦅❤️
That does not appear to be a mature Golden Eagle with the white feathers.
video came out in 2014 and the description says 2014 imprint

I really loved it but it is a captive eagle, notice what is on it´s legs. Please set it free.
This eagle was bred and hand reared in captivity as a falconry bird a few years ago now
Or you could do some research on falconry.
@Last Name Here he was hatched and raised in captivity. Those are jesses, something to assist the falconer in falconry. If you notice, he isn't chained to anything so if he wanted to he could fly away
Its sad that he is tethered
Está feliz bañándose
Do you keep this eagle as a pet? Is this legal? A healthy golden eagle should never be kept as a pet, this is a shame!

If you need to have it on a leash then you shouldn't have it at all.
