However, there are no unfeathered, bald areas of skin on the head of an adult golden eagle. Most likely, an adult golden eagle was called bald because of the reddish-ochre color of the top of the head and neck, which, like a light bald head, contrasts with the overall brown plumage, although it is lighter than that of a young bird.
