When it rains, most birds head for shelter; the eagle is the only bird that, in order to avoid the rain,
starts flying above the clouds...

An amazing tidbit about the Eagle's eyesight: The eagle can probably identify a rabbit moving almost a mile away.
That means that an eagle flying at an altitude of 1000 feet over open country could spot prey over an area of
almost 3 square miles from a fixed position.

No wonder God wants us to spread our wings and soar with eagles.
