A colleague saw two eagles in a thermal at Russell on Monday around 2pm.
Unfortunately, both birds had gone by the time I got outside for a look.
He thought they were Wedge-tailed Eagles, but one was definitely an adult
White-bellied Sea Eagle from the underwing pattern - "white with black
trailing edge."  The other bird was "brown and larger"; I suggested a
juvenile WBSE, but he was insistent about the tail shape.
