Edinburgh Zoo Sea Eagles


I was enjoying a visit at the zoo today, checking out a potential post phd research site, when I came across the sea eagle enclosure.  This charismatic fellow was waiting right up against the glass, and was very engaged with all the human visitors.  He made direct eye contact, and seemed very comfortable.  It is also special as sea eagles are extinct in Scotland, but they are undergoing efforts to breed in captivity and re-establish wild populations.
