Eagles (and most large birds) fly by soaring; it's much more energy efficient than flapping their wings. We do use the technique for our own flights. The reason eagles and other soaring birds do this rather than flap is that they generally hunt from the air and so spend a lot of time waiting for prey. They don't need to go anywhere specific and don't need to move fast until they spot prey. Until then they want to use as little energy as possible.
Several eagles soaring in a thermal together is described as a kettle of eagles. (Courtesy of Marybeth Garrigan) Bald eagles can fly to an altitude of 10,000 feet. During level flight, a bald eagle can achieve speeds of about 30 to 35 mph. The tail - is very important for flight and maneuvering. While the bald eagle is soaring or gliding in flight, the tail feathers are spread in order to attain the largest surface area and increase the effect of thermals and up-drafts.
