White-tailed Eagles, Cairngorms
If the eagles adopt this nest and breed, "we" may wish to give them their own thread and will have to decide where to put it.
The cam is solar-powered, there's been no nightcam so far. The timeline is not up to WildlifeWindows' usual standard, it's often unreadable :((( The WTE appeared @ 16:37.
A sign of WTE life behind the nest (after the mystery pair flies by):

EDIT 21 January
The breeding season for white-tailed eagles in Scotland is from 01 February to 31 August.

Yes, RSPB shop, the 1st thing that I picked at random to try to see if it worked.
Well done Catlady, it worked! I got lovely Christmas tops from there last year!
Just heard about this very unusual arrangement at Tweed Valley.
I don’t have a FB account but this is what I managed to read before they asked for me to log in.

Gosh! We recently had the 2-dad nest in Arabia, now 2 mums!
Thanks for sharing, GLIDER!
You’re welcome Scylla Oh, I didn’t know about that in Arabia! Maybe this is the new way forward?!
Just read this on BBC online about an osprey nest in Usk Valley in Wales, is it one we know about? ...

That’s fantastic news Wendy. I hadn’t heard of that before. Good that they built their own nest too.
Fingers crossed for a successful season.
