The mystery of partially devoured fish on the banks of the Caledonian Canal appears to have been solved by the discovery of a White Tailed "Sea" Eagle who recently took up residence for a few days at Dochgarroch.
Confirmed by the RSPB as a juvenile, the first photograph helps illustrate the enormouse size to which these magnificent birds of prey can grow. Here we see some local crows "mobbing" the eagle in an attempt to drive it away from their territory.
Anyone else with sightings of the eagle or with other wildlife photographs from the canal, please get in touch.
