THE TITLE IS OFFICIAL! And no bird is more deserving. The bald eagle is now officially the national bird of the US, after the President signed a law on Christmas Eve bestowing the honor upon the white-headed and yellow-beaked bird of prey. The bird has been a national emblem in the US for years, appearing on the Great Seal of the US - used on US documents - since 1782. But it had not been officially designated to be the national bird until Congress passed the bill last week, sending it to the president's desk to be signed. "For nearly 250 years, we called the bald eagle the national bird when it wasn't," said Jack Davis, co-chair of the National Bird Initiative for the National Eagle Center, in a statement.
