Eagle is the common name for the golden eagle, bald eagle and other birds of prey in the family 'Accipitridae'. Eagles belong to several groups of genera, some of which, are closely related. True eagles comprise the genus 'Aquila'. Most of the 68 species of eagles are from Eurasia and Africa. Outside this area, just 14 species can be found: two, in North America, nine, in Central and South America and three, in Australia. "The Eagle (Migizi) is one of our most revered and respected beings in creation. These beautiful birds represent our link to the Creator (Gchi Manidoo) and our connection to all that is spiritual for our People. It is taught, that when we lay down our tobacco (sema), Migizi comes down to gather our prayers and then soars high up into Ishpeming (Above) to bring them to Gchi Manidoo. The Eagle Clan (Migizi Dodem) is one of our sacred Bird Clans (Bineshi Dodem). The Eagle Clan (Migizi Dodem) for the Anishinaabe people hold roles as Spiritual leaders in our communities and help us to live in balance with all that surrounds us.
