User's notes

The two eagles arrived in the area at the same time from the direction of Gibralter Rocks. They then soared the same thermal but in opposite directions with the the higher one (the fifth image) soaring clockwise. They both left the thermal and the area within minutes of each other, heading into Tidbinbilla Nature Reserve. Possibly a pair from this behaviour? Not the best of images as the birds were quite high and far off.
