four Wedge-tailed Eagles in Throsby this afternoon

[Steve Read <>]

Kevin W and I had six WTEs over Stony Creek on the Murrumbidgee on Sun 26 Jan - a pair over Uriarra Crossing and two pairs circling further upstream.

That's awesome David! Did you happen to catch the age of the birds or their general plumage? I wonder if it’s the resident pair of Sammys hill and their two young fledged last November/December. Or perhaps another pair.

Subject: four Wedge-tailed Eagles in Throsby this afternoon

I was up in the top of Throsby close to the Mulliagn's reserve fence this afternoon watching the fire down south react to the wind change. No less than 4 wedge-tailed eagles came along busily interacting with each other at low level.  There are not many places in the world where you can see four eagles like that in the suburbs of the nations' capital.

For those who want to watch what the fire and smoke did with the wind change, I've made a time lapse of it which can be seen here
