Meet the Eagles

Satellite transmitters (PTTs) carefully fitted to these captured eagles help us to monitor their locations throughout the year. The most recently captured birds listed below are the ones we will follow this season. They will continue to be monitored until the batteries in their PTTs lose power. After a few years of wear the straps holding the PTTs will simply wear thin and fall off the bird.
