One of the goals of the South of Scotland Golden Eagle Project is to raise awareness about the translocation process and the fieldwork involved. We have been keen to try and show you exactly what we do when collecting the chicks and how we care for them in the aviaries.

Young male A31 known as ‘Tarras’ is easily identifiable by his ‘headlight markings’. These distinctive white markings on his shoulders make him stand out and present as bright headlights when seen from head on. These particular plumage qualities will likely fade with age.

With a visit from Sapphire, the Golden Eagle to the Farmer's Market on Sunday, where you could buy some fantastic Eagle-themed products, to the amazing talks on Monday evening from Julian Tite, Peter Robson and the fabulous Lauren McGough culminating in a screening of 'The Eagle Huntress', Moffat 2021 is the place to be!
