Last week Eagle Officer John Wright caught up with our oldest female Emily (121) a wee bit North of her last position. She has found a very active rabbit warren and, much like Edward (Blog 7.1.19), was seen exhibiting the same sort of hunting strategy employed by the young male.
John also observed a male Goshawk hunting the warren between Emily's visits.
St Peter's Primary School in Galashiels were treated to a visit from Mac the Golden Eagle last Friday (18.1.2019) as part of the their Eagle School work. Ray Lowden of the Kielder Bird of Prey Centre gave a fantastic and informative presentation to the students which included other raptors from across the globe as well as native species including a Barn Owl, Kestrel and Merlin.
