Nice. Do you know if they might be the same ones that used to have a nest on Wanniassa Hills visible from Erindale Dr several years ago?

I don't know if they are the same ones. How big is their territory? I have seen eagles in this area before but because of the trees it is difficult to get photos. Most sightings are at the north end of Isaacs Ridge where it is more open and more people visiting.

Its about 1.35kms from the old nest, so probably well within an area they can easily cover. Its very rare now to see them south or the Wanniassa Hills Trig though
