Almost the size of a hare, it is more clumsily jumping, than running… and that tail… it is the European Otter! On my way back I will see a third eagle above the pond, intermediate in age between those two, perhaps in its 4th or 5th calendar year, most likely a subadult… with a yellow wing tag at its right wing!

White-tailed Eagles normally take flight silently, yet, while checking some Common Starlings and hoping for Rosy Starlings , I heard a few noisy wing-beats, enough to turn and see a young eagle flying with a wing tag. Hidden from my view, it stood on a nearby tree and if it weren’t for those clumsy beats, I wouldn’t have noticed it.
