Find out about the recent travels of some of the released #WhiteTailedEagles
White-tailed Eagle G542 recently became the third eagle from the Isle of Wight to make a flight across the English Channel. She spent a month in France, travelling more than 2000 miles, before returning to Southern England. Read more: roydennis.org/2025/05/12/ano… @SeaEagleEngland
The shallow waters of the Solent are rich in marine life and the released #WhiteTailedEagles have been learning to successfully catch fish. They favour grey mullet, bass and on this occasion dogfish, observed recently by our team. 🦅🐟 #RoyDennisWildlifeFoundation @RoyDennisWF
Our team spend many hours observing the released #WhiteTailedEagles to learn about their behaviour including diet. During a recent monitoring session they were lucky enough to capture this great clip of one of the eagles catching cuttlefish in the Solent Estuary. @RoyDennisWF
Season's Greetings to all of our followers 🦅💚 📷 Ainsley Bennett
Following the early success of the #WhiteTailedEagle project based on the Isle of Wight we are exploring the idea of additional small scale releases at @ExmoorNP to boost the establishing population on the south coast. Share your views here bit.ly/4i0VuO9 @RoyDennisWF
A glider in the Peak District recently found himself flying alongside one of the released #WhiteTailedEagles - G813. He managed to capture some footage of this very special moment. Thanks to Derbyshire & Lancashire Gliding Club for sharing. @RoyDennisWF @ForestryEngland
Some great action shots of G463 chasing an Osprey captured by Joe Downing. The pursuing #whitetailedeagle forces the Osprey to drop it’s freshly caught fish. Piracy is an key feature of eagle diet, but also an important ecosystem function of these apex predators. @RoyDennisWF
We have some news....🐣🦅 Two #WhiteTailedEagle chicks have fledged from a nest in England, only the 2nd time they have bred here for 240 years. The chicks are the offspring of white-tailed eagles released by the @ForestryEngland @RoyDennisWF in 2020. 👉bit.ly/3WU4WKE
Three year-old White-tailed Eagle, G818, spent just over two weeks in France, travelling as far west as Brittany before returning to a favoured area in the Avon valley. Read more in our latest blog. @SeaEagleEngland @ForestryEngland
White-tailed Eagle, G818, has recently become the second Isle of Wight bird to cross the English Channel, flying a remarkable 2062km through southern England and northern France in 22 days. Read more in our latest blog by @timmackrill: roydennis.org/2024/04/15/fre… Photo: Maude Bachet
A fabulous image showing one of the released #WhiteTailedEagles in flight with a fish. 🦅🦅 Our research shows that fish makes up more than 50% of diet in breeding age white tailed eagles 🐟🐟 @ForestryEngland #roydenniswildlifefoundation 📷 @DanSayers66658

Fish are the preferred prey of #WhiteTailedEagles even in winter when they are harder to find, like this fish that got stranded in a flooded field. As the birds approach breeding age we see them living largely in wetland areas with abundant fish. 📷@DanSayers66658 @RoyDennisWF
2023 proved to be a landmark year with the first White-tailed Eagle chick fledging from a nest in southern England for 240 years. We're pleased to report the youngster, G625, is doing well. Read more in our latest blog: roydennis.org/2023/12/22/hap… @SeaEagleEngland Photo: Mike Jerome
