Eagles in movies: majestic cry Eagles in real life: squeaky shopping cart

This feels just as deceiving as when I found out that a tiger's roar is used for lions in movies

His looks:💪🏻🕶🗿🧢🇺🇸🏈🛻 His voice:🐣🐥

They're literally just slightly more majestic seagulls. I love it.

So this is what freedom sounds like.

30 SECONDS IN AND THE SUSPENSE IS KILLING ME.

It's still amazing to me that this huge, majestic bird has such a dainty call. It's kinda like cheetahs and their unexpected, chirpy calls. Lol.

That’s the fiercest bird on earth! Look at him cackling up there like a schoolgirl.

He's telling his buddies he found oil nearby.

Geez, no wonder you don't hear this in movies.

0:37 He's laughing at all of us Americans for thinking he actually sounded like a Red Tailed Hawk.

God Bless America where our national bird sounds like a bike tire sliding across the ground

First time saw one in the wild, BIG surprise. I was waiting for that powerful, majestic "SCRAAAAAAWWW!!!!!!" you hear in the movies and got "Cheep-cheep-cheep!" instead. Still, majestic bird.

He's laughing at your lack of FREEDOM

Am I the only one who actually likes the bald eagle's real call? It can be majestic as well, like the red-tailed hawk's screech, if used in the right moment. Both birds are good!

He's powerful! Majestic! Badass! "Eagle squeaks." ... He's adorable. And he's a very good boy.

Why did it look into my soul at the end

There’s a native story from the Pacific Northwest that the bald eagle helped the other birds get their voices (calls) where the other raptors were too proud to help, and as such was gifted the ability of song where the other raptors merely got squawks.

Awwww freedom sounds adorable!

That bit of staring into the camera at the end, that was something.

Oh my god seagulls are more intimidating than this.

the majestic squeaky wagon wheel, everyone

The fact that you have to wait for it makes it even more satisfying.

It’s funny because the “bird of freedom” sounds like a car going into a skid and the actual noise of the “bald eagle” is a red tailed hawk

"Speak softly and carry a big stick."

Expects an epic, majestic call: gets the most adorable little sound ever. 😂

Unironically a better sound than the red tailed hawk scream used in movies. It’s like a massive songbird.

The definition of “Speak softly and carry a big stick.”

Kills like a Predator sounds like a Prey.

The well known "SQUAK" isn't a Bald Eagle call...American commercials ripped off the Red Tail Hawk's SQUAK and made it so the American Bald Eagle screams furiously, Bald eagles only make awkward chirping sounds...like in the video

I never knew how Eagles sounded. They sound like cute little baby birds. 🤗♥️

I've heard these guys so many times while canoeing up and down the east coast. I've seen them dive down on cute little ducks and grab one for a meal, or skim across the water and snatch a big fish, never even slowing down. Majestic indeed.

The eagle looks like it made a funny joke and is looking to see if someone heard it.

0:37 when Uncle Sam tells u a funny joke

Freedom is not loud and arrogant...it's soft, but majestic.

I love how this bird sounds nothing like you'd expect.

TWEET TWEET YOU DAMN COMMIES

It is a totally distinctive sound. There are lots of eagles here now, they are passing thru on migration.

I came here cuz that dude on tiktok told me to

I get why people sound kinda disappointed in their calls, but to hear one in person is so much more moving since they’re much louder than what the video shows.

the sound of AMERICA and FREEDOM

Nobody: The bald eagle, a wild majestic aerial alpha predator : Hwee hwee hahahah

Sounds like a seagull with laryngitis

That's it? Thats the bald eagle? That's just a big seagull!

His looks are like when you tell someone your are gonna kill them on the internet and act all badass and tough. *His call is when you fight someone in person*

It really is such a distinctive call. As soon as you hear it you know, they are such beautiful animals.

No wonder they let the Red tailed hawk do the cry instead.

Red Tailed Hawk: the official voice actor for the Bald Eagle since 1776.

Favorite animal by far. If I lived in Alaska I'd literally open my window all day just to hear them call. Such a majestic creature.

The proud bald eagle with one of silliest voices in all the bird kingdom. A fitting symbol for the United States. xD

The Bald Eagle truly is the bird of America. It is super majestic and awesome in appearance at least until it opens it’s mouth.

It is interesting that I first heard this sound about a week ago. Fifty years ago, just seeing an eagle along the Mississippi River would have been a big deal. As time went on you would see eagles soaring or even nesting near the river. About 25 years ago we moved to our farm, which is about 11 miles east of the river in the Driftless Area of Wisconsin and and a few years later started to see eagles flying overhead. About 20 years ago, I was out checking heifers and an eagle landed in an Oak tree not more than 150 feet away. I was amazed. He watched me for minute or two, but was probably scouting for rodents and then took off and flew out of sight. Over the years we saw increasing numbers of eagles and they started to alight in some of the tall spruce trees in the area. In fact, one time as we were walking with our dogs, I joked with my wife that the next thing we might see is an eagle in the tallest tree on our property. At that moment we looked up and an eagle was looking down at us. This is a tall spruce tree about 700 feet south and east of our house, but, it is less than 50 feet from the property line of an old school house that friends of ours live in as a summer home. Last week I was out walking the dogs and the eagle came flying in and landed at the very top of the same tree and looked down at us. I don't think the dogs even realized the eagle was there and we walked within a few feet of the tree and around to the front of the house. Our neighbor was outside and I mentioned that the eagle was up in the tree. He said that this had been happening quite often as of late, and the bird made the sounds in the video which I don't ever recall hearing before. You sometimes will come upon an eagle on the highway due to a road kill, but you don't hear any sounds. My neighbor said that the bird almost seemed like he was talking to them, since they heard the call before, but perhaps it was calling another eagle in the vicinity?

0:35

for a bird that looks like it wants to steal your soul AND your oil, that is the most chill sound ive ever heard.

Anyone here from TikTok? Lmao

I like how he looks at the camera at the end as if he's saying, "Alright, did you get what you needed? Are we good?"

that's the real sound of America 😂

Who else came from TickTock?

0:50 the sound for feather family eagle!

Aww... What a sweet little call. I would thought that that would have come from a bird half it's size

0:59 "Is that a camera?!"

It's so cute!

Anyone here from TikTok?

40 seconds in to a 60 second clip you finally hear the eagle's call. Great editing skills.

My whole life is a lie!

I never knew bald eagles can laugh 😂💀

The Mike Tyson of the bird world.

The freedom to sound as you are! Laugh, Mighty Eagle, LAUGH!

0:39 What people think a Bald Eagle sounds like: **majestic, fearsome scream, echoing with might and power** What a Bald Eagle actually sounds like: **squeaky mocking laughter**

Thank you Hank Green for teaching me how bald eagle’s actually sound 😂

Lol this sounds so adorable , I was really expecting some sort of cool and majestic loud call but this surprised me

That's crazy, all I heard was, MMMMMMMERICAAAAAA !!!

Imagine hearing the chirp BEFORE seeing the eagle!

Have a family of four near my dads house. We go down to the river and hear them chirping with each other. They plop down into the river to get a fish once in awhile.

That last second head turn: “Now, are you satisfied?….” 😂😂😂

"And here we have the bald eagle, and it's famous screech that you definitely year in movies"

Did Casual Geographic sent you to this video? That's a yes for me. He said "The symbol of America sounds like a seagull with laryngitis." That seems kind of accurate for this video.

Most of the top hunters in the animal kingdom have sweet voices.Opposite to what movies would like us to believe.

Very good camera angle. Thanks for posting put a smile on our faces.

i actually like how they sound. There's something soothing and nostalgic about it idk why

Are you sure that isn't a seagull that just found some loose feathers on the ground and wore them? xD

This video should be 8 seconds long

Dude bald eagle sounds it’s so awesome my favorite bird

Such a fluffy and cute bird~! :>

I never knew eagles were so cute owo

Sounds like a seagull imitating a horse and this angle makes him look so fluffy

Big majestic bird….sounds like a baby seagull 🥺🥺

Founders deciding our countries symbol: These are nice drawings, love the bird. Whats it sound like? Explorer: You ever rub a window too hard?

thats what real freedom sounds like

Eagles are some of the most beautiful birds to me personally. Their colors are so abstract sometimes and just their overall build is amazing.

Thank you SO MUCH!! ❤🌍♾

As a wise man once said “It actually makes sense this bird represents America, because their intimidating until they open their mouth and then you realize there a mess inside”

It really confused me as a teenager when I first heard a white-tailed eagle in real life and learned how they actually sounded. Glad to learn that bald eagles have essentially the same call. Truly majestic birds but their sound is... unexpected.

I was expecting more but that’s the sound of FREEDOM!

Cute sound from a badass bird.

America..?

Gotta love how movies replace their call with the screeching of a Red-tailed hawk :P

Philippine eagles sounds like it's gonna win in a singing competition while the Bald eagle is going in to puberty 😐

My brain said “BIRD FROM POLAR EXPRESS THAT STOLE THE TICKET”
