More From The Eagle Cam

Been busy as usual but we had time on a beautiful blue sky day to have a wee walk down to collect the trail camera, not disappointed. The Golden Eagles are still coming to the ‘remains’, I hope it helps them with all the competition from the Sea Eagles. Ravens, Hoodies, etc and the odd mouse visiting the site. Nice to see and far from nature depleted out here on Rona!!!!!

The Hoodies are most in attendance at the bone pile. The one in the picture trying to look like an Eagle. Ravens just turned up for the first time, but I deleted the photos (Doh).

Good to see the Male and Female Golden Eagles coming together.

Stalking almost finished, no more bits and pieces I guess till July. We hope that our leftovers have helped the birds through the tough winter. It must make a difference to the ‘Scavengers ‘ having our Deer herd on Rona. I would like to think so.

About Bill Cowie

I've been living on the island since April 2002, alone for the first 5 years, my partner L joined me in 2007. We manage the Island for a Danish family who bought the Island in the early 90's. Their hopes for the Island are to make it self sufficient supporting its inhabitants and that is where we come in. We look after the stock, 3 holiday cottages, machinery, boat and of course the visitors. It is pretty challenging but it is a beautiful place to live and work, we love it and strangely enough we love it even more in the depths of winter when all is quiet apart from the gales and rain. We do a bit of fishing, stock work, stalking deer and loads of other stuff. We have good support from lots of people whom we have met over the years and have become involved in the Island. Too many to mention here but keep an eye on the blog, they'll be there for sure in the future.
