White-tailed Eagle on Patch!

Local birder Tony James found a White-tailed Eagle at my local patch at Little Marlow GP on 4th March at about 13:20.  He put the news out and I was down there about 20 minutes later!  The bird was perched on the main island where the Herons and Cormorants breed,  I had limited time and had to leave after about 15 minutes but I did return later to see the bird in flight and leave the site, to the north at about 17:00.







The ring can be seen in this photo.

Constantly being harassed by other birds, mainly Gulls.



The following day the Eagle was seen near Wilstone Reservoir, Tring where it presumably roosted.
