13th Mar

What was actually a very quiet day came to live in late morning when a White-tailed Eagle first seen on the Reserve flew over the recording area and eventually north over New Romney. It turns out that this was a bird originally released with a satellite tag (G542) on the Isle of Wight. The early seawatch produced just two Mediterranean Gulls of interest.
