The Steppe eagle we are tracking (6487) is steadily heading south in western Saudi Arabia, and is currently west of Medina. However, other Steppe eagles being tracked (that were captured in Oman in 2019) are yet to start serious migration and are still in Russia, north of the Caucasus.

Below are two maps: one showing the movements of this eagle since it was released at Al Jahra, Kuwait on 5 March, and the other shows the steady pace of migration in the last two days (from Tabuk).
