The Massachusetts Division of Fisheries and Wildlife wrote, “Last week, a rare Steller’s sea eagle was spotted along the Taunton River in Massachusetts, thousands of miles away from its home in Asia. This sea eagle is one of the largest raptors in the world, weighing up to 20 pounds with a wingspan of up to 8 feet! This is likely the same eagle that was observed in Alaska and Canada.”
