Sea eagles re-introduced to Scotland

Filed under Miscellaneous

A new batch of sea eagles has arrived in Scotland. It’s the largest batch to arrive in Scotland since a new programme to re-introduce the species commenced four years ago. The programme is not without controversy with farmers in Wester Ross claiming to have lost both chickens and lambs to the birds with a re-introduction scheme back in the 1970s and 1980s.

The birds will no doubt come as a welcome site to twitchers living in and visiting this part of the UK.  Do you support such a programme or do you think nature should be left to take its course?

    Def should have them, its a re-introduction of a native species that we persecuted. No debate for me.

    Long live the flying barn door!
