Eagle Tattoos


Eagle tattoos are common choices for men and women who serve as police officers, firefighters, soldiers, or other service members.
In ancient Greece, the eagle was worshiped and associated with the Sun god, while in Norse mythology, eagles were said to be associated with the god Odin, who represented wisdom.
The back is a great location for designs ofeagles with their wings fully spread as if in flight. If the design is large enough, detailed feathers are usually the main feature of the tattoo, which gives the eagle a realistic appearance.
Some eagles are tattooed in flight, as if swooping in on their prey, complete with sharp talons, and of course the internet and many tattoo shops are full of images of the majestic eagle in varying poses.
If you don't have any idea what your tattoo design means, well, I suggest that you go for tattoo designs that mean something to you. How about eagle tattoos? Below are some meanings that eagle tattoo designs stand for:
