Loch Sunart

The year 2025 marks a momentous milestone in the UK’s conservation history—50 years since the reintroduction of white-tailed eagles. These magnificent raptors, often called “flying barn doors” due to their enormous wingspan, once soared freely over Britain’s skies before being hunted to extinction in the early 20th century. Their return to Scotland sparked both excitement and controversy, but today, they stand as a powerful symbol of resilience and renewal.
