Anecdotal evidence - I am told that the Sea-eagles at Limeburners Creek/Alsworth on the Karuah River, NSW, Bucketts Way north of Newcastle, visit the local chicken farms and take the carcasses thrown out for later burning. Which is why when one drives along this stretch of the road one often sees Whistling Kites, Little and Wedge-tailed Eagles and the Sea-eagles.

Hi Birders,

I have seen White-bellied Sea-eagles feeding on carrion on a number of occasions. The most recent time, about 2 years ago, was when I found a pair of sea-eagles feeding on the carcase of a recently dead calf, still born? at Tuggerah near Wyong, not far from their nest.
