Steppe Eagles – Ushaiqer

The Steppe Eagles at Ushaiqer are moving off and numbers have declined considerably from the peak of 6000 birds in January/February 2020. Most birds that are still present, are juveniles with the adults migrating back to their breeding grounds. The high count was 1000 – 1100 birds in early March. Phil Roberts was at the location recently and provided the information above.
