Anyone have a good source for clip art of an eagle? I've found a few but not the right one. I'm looking for a bald eagle with wings spread and the head up. The feet will be clutching a banner which I've already created.

I need one also. I have to design another bus. My shop has done all the local buses except the last one. I thought that I lost the account but the guy came in the other day and wants me to design a bus with an eagle and other patroitic themes. I plan on designing using a real nice clip artie eagle and other straight vinyl, if I can find a good one. But I am also going to hit him up for a complete digital vehicle wrap. So I need a really nice raster image of eagles. I would like to find one of a bald eagle with its talons out stretched like it was grabbing prey or landing in its nest.

Thanks Bob, good source! Here's a couple I liked from Bob's source:
Also I just discovered this the other day. (hope it works now) When you post a link like the one above, although it's easy for us to find the next link to take from where your link takes us, & eventually get to the eagles, try this. When you are already at the eagle clipart index, right click* on the frame with the index, & choose "open in new window" then your location bar will display this link: http://birding.about.com/library/blclip-type-eagles.htm
I think this may be a more direct link.
Wow, learn something every day, & sometimes 2 things. My post below this had a very long URL like Bob's link above. I just discovered how the UBB code buttons include a URL button creating my "gettyimages" link below in place of the 18" string of code!
*right click for PC, I don't know for Mac

Here's one I have as a vector already somewhere. If it's of any interest to anyone I can dig it up.
Laura, I forgot to mention I was wanting to do a large digital print & wanted a high resolution image already somewhat good sized. I found gettyimages.com has a huge selection of high res. images. Two small points to remember though, 1. they are not free, 2. They are not cheap!
But, wrapping a bus is not cheap either, so you could probably swipe the mini .jpg to do a presentation if you liked an image, then just buy it if you sell the job.

Dave, if you don't need it till monday, my dad has a vector illustration of one of his own engravings thats a realistic American Eagle. It's a beautiful bird. Email him in town if you want it.

Thanks to all who responded and sent me eagles. I found 2 that fit the bill at arttoday.com. They only have over 1,600 eagles. I hated the thought of wading through that many pieces of clip art but they do have 2 that fit the bill, number 259 and 348. I went through 408 of their eagles before I got sick of it.
Doug, the eagle you have posted is pretty close to what I was looking for. Is it royalty free? Vinyl cuttable? If so do you have it handy?
If not I'll just join the one week version of art today and download some.
Laura, art today has what you're looking for if none of the others are just right. They have a one week membership for $7.95. How much clipart can one download in a week?

Dave, if you mean the blue one in the logo design I posted, Yes it's vector art & I found the file deleted the rest of the logo & welded a few stray overlaps. I modified it fron a one-winged clipart, for a biker club patch & never got the job. Oh well.. It would be great if it got used after all these years. I'll email it now. If you meant one of the other 2 I posted above that, follow the link to site Bob suggested. I got them their, & didn't read what formats are available, I just right-clicked to "borrow" the .jpg used in their clipart directory.
