Re: White sea eagle - Brian (16th Jul 2024  17:18:17) Not recently, but about 2-3 years ago, just south of Redford. It was fairly close and there was no mistaking it. Huge bird of prey, far bigger than a buzzard with a fan like white tail. I was not aware back then that this was even possible in the area so when I got home, I googled it. I found the eagle release project website and they published the satellite maps of their flight paths (I don't know if they still do this). Unfortunately, I could not find the eagle I spotted on their maps. Perhaps they don't publish all of the eagles or they delay release of the data.
