More Golden Eagles are now flying in southern Scottish skies than at any point in the last three centuries, it has been revealed.

Following a series of releases of translocated birds, the South of Scotland Golden Eagle Project has announced that no fewer than 47 Golden Eagles are now living wild in southern Scotland. This represents a slight increase on 2023's figures.

Under a research licence from NatureScot, the project team successfully caught, transported and released eight free-flying subadult Golden Eagles from the Outer Hebrides in 2023 and 2024, bringing the total number of subadult birds released to 15. The eagles were released almost immediately on arrival at a secret location in the southern uplands of Scotland.
