About

We are very privileged to have the science led project to reintroduce eagles to the Severn estuary presented as an illustrated talk by Dr Sophie-Lee Williams . It is sure to be fascinating!

White-tailed Eagles suffered intense human persecution, like many other birds of prey, which caused population extinction in Wales by 1830. Historic records such as place-names, archaeological, observational and historic persecution records showcase the birds were common and widespread across the UK. Historic information for Wales shows records in every county with the last known nest site located at Kenfig National Reserve on the Swansea coast in South Wales.
White-tailed Eagles are part the Sea Eagle family (Haliaeetus) and are tied to freshwater and marine landscapes. You would most likely find a White-tailed Eagle around the shallow waters of our coastlines, rivers and lakes. Mature trees and woodlands are also important habitat for roosting and nesting White-tailed Eagles.
These birds favour fish, water birds and carrion and shallow waters as foraging grounds.
