A Young Bald Eagle Plays With A Sprinkler At Flathead Lake, Montana

The young are always curious, and that's not just restricted to humans. While its parents were out fishing, this three-month-old bald eagle decided to explore its surroundings. Bird watcher Joan Robbins captured the moment the infant raptor discovered a garden spinkler and didn't quite know what to make of it.

Bald Eagles occasionally hunt cooperatively, with one individual flushing prey towards another. Bald Eagles can live a long time. The oldest recorded bird in the wild was at least 38 years old when it was hit and killed by a car in New York in 2015. It had been banded in the same state in 1977.
