We are particularly interested in how many Little Eagles we have in Canberra during the Winter Months

I just stuffed up putting it in. Very definitely a little eagle. In the same area where I last sighted it a couple of months ago. It was circling very lazy slow circles (I assumed it had found prey or something) initially while my camera was not at all ready. Then a couple of minutes later it was being terrorised by a range of birds trying to drive it away namely magpies and crows.

I think so. The colouration is the same it seems to be the same size and the location was almost exactly the same as my last sighting.

I think it is the Black Mountain female who used to spend most of winter on Red Hill, but I am only guessing
