Buzzard & sea eagle found poisoned nr Glenogil Estate, Angus

This is the young sea eagle 'White G' before he was illegally poisoned.
Here is ‘White G’ after his visit to a grouse moor.

A buzzard and a young white-tailed sea eagle known as ‘White G’ were found poisoned on 4 May 2008, along with 32 pieces of poisoned venison laid out on the nearby Glenogil Estate. The estate is owned by John Dodd, and Mark Osborne advises on grouse management issues.

The sea eagle had hatched on the Isle of Mull in 2007 and was fitted with wingtags, hence its name ‘White G’.
