The Story of the Sea Eagle pair

Last October, in the pouring rain we found these two White-Tailed Sea Eagles sitting on two hillocks next to each other. Surrounded by Ravens they were sitting above a dead sheep.  They had obviously had their fill, and the Ravens and Hooded Crows were now feeding.  

The Sea Eagles were sitting separately, but the female was being harried by the Ravens.  They even tried pulling her tail feathers.  



Finally she had enough and flew to join the male.  She landed on a rock near to him, but that was obviously not to his liking as he stalked off to his own space.  

Female on the left and male on the right. 


Lucky sighting? Not quite, Isle of Skye Wildlife Tours spot!
