  Like other predators, the eyes of a sea-eagle are large and are at the front of the head, rather than to the side. To look behind, a sea-eagle simply turns its head and keeps the rest of its body still. Sea-eagles have strong, scaly feet with tiny, sensitive bumps underneath, called spicules.

The spicules cause the sea-eagle’s feet to clamp tightly shut as soon as they touch the bird’s prey.

Read about it.
