Bald eagles have several adaptations to regulate their body temperature in extreme conditions. They possess a layer of down feathers that provides insulation against the cold, while their outer feathers help repel water and insulate them from rain. In hot weather, eagles can be seen panting or spreading their wings to cool off, and they often seek shade or immerse themselves in water to lower their body temperature. These behaviors and physical adaptations help them maintain thermal balance in varying climates.
