This is a blog that features the movements of eagles reared in Scotland and fitted with satellite-received transmitters. This effort to better understand eagle dispersal is being undertaken by Natural Research and its partners: the Highland Foundation for Wildlife, the RSPB, SNH and the Scottish Raptor Study Groups. Eagles have been tracked since fledging and data from them will form part of a Natural Research funded PhD by Ewan Weston at Aberdeen University.

57109: 12 October - 4 November 2012

On 12 October 57109 was located about 15 km north of Calvine, where it ranged until 21 October.  On that date it crossed the A9 road and stayed for three days in an area SW of Dalwhinnie and E of Loch Ericht. On 24 October it moved back east over the A9 to upper elevations SW of Gaick Lodge, then moved SE back to the area where it was first located at the beginning of the period covered by the map above.  The pattern of movement seen in this map is very similar to what we have seen since at least August 2012.
