Known for its impressive wingspan and sharp eyesight, the bird became a symbol of independence and freedom. Its white head and strong build set it apart from other species. While Benjamin Franklin supported the turkey, the bald eagles commanding presence made it a lasting national emblem. **Ordering** BGASC customer service is available to assist at 888-992-4272.
