TRIP REPORT
“On the path of Greater Spotted Eagle”
Over de past Wednesday 9th and 16th january 2013 a team of Birding Murcia visited the Natural Park of El Hondo, in Alicante, to try to photograph Tönn, a Spotted Eagle marked and followed by satellite using GPS transmitter that, for several years, migrated from Estonia to Iberian southeast to pass the winter. On the first day we could only photograph another Spotted Eeagle accompanying Tonn on his journey but the second day, we were able to achieve our goal. In the following testimonial images of Santiago Carrasco, you can see the result of our sampling with which we want collaborate in this project of internacional scale.
