Thanks to everyone who joined us at the Wild Connections sea eagle tracking event on Wednesday evening! The outing was a success with dry weather, and great views of four young sea eagles. The group got to grips with the radio tracking device before setting off to try and find some eagles as they settled down to roost. We were lucky enough to see three juveniles from the 2011 release cohort (Red E, P and 2) and also a very exciting sighting of a 2009 male (Turquoise Z). This is only the second time that a 2 year old bird had been seen at this roost, and great to see that he’s returned to see how the new birds are getting on! I hope everyone enjoyed themselves as much as I did!
Glad you posted this Rhian, I had been calling TZ female, oops! Didn't we also see Red A, the first bird we spotted? It was a great afternoon/evening, really enjoyed it. It was interesting hearing more about the east coast project and the eagles, as well as trying the radio tracking. Of course, the best bit was seeing so many of the young eagles. A big thank you to Claire and yourself for such an enjoyable event. :-)
