Some Greater spotted eagles during 2022

In the next few blog posts I'll try to update you on the movement of the eagles we are tracking.  I'll do a few in each post.

Below is a map of the movements of the eagle with transmitter number 8648.  Since capture we have collected 12793 locations.  It has spent time at the reserve and in the agricultural fields to the SE.
