When I remove the background to become transparent, the colors of the object all turn black and white. What steps do I take to keep the color? I tried to re-color it and if I click on it somewhere to chose an area to color it then turns everything the color I am trying to change a specific are to. The file I am working with is attached (not in svg format but I can convert and remove background successfully). I'm very new, any step by step instructions would be appreciated. Thank you in advance.

Please show us what's in the layers panel.

Also: before and after would be interesting.

Please click on the little triangle to the left of the layer name.

And also upload a much larger and legible screenshot.

Did you try to use the Shape Builder tool (Shift M) with the Alt key depressed on the white background?

Turn on the View > Show Transparency Grid.

I have the transparency view on and can see the eagle is in a white box. I can get the white box to disappear but then the colors turn to black and white.
