Quick Glance: 24 new eagle chicks take flight in Irish skies

A total of 24 white-tailed eagle chicks were released in August as part of an ongoing program to reintroduce the once extinct species.

Since 2007, the National Parks and Wildlife Service (NPWS) has been working with partners in Norway, farmers, and communities to reintroduce the white-tailed eagle to Ireland.

National Park and Wildlife Conservation Rangers collected two chicks from the nest at Lough Derg for tagging and documentation.

We will be closely monitoring the growth and development of this year's chicks, hoping they will successfully raise their own chicks.

Quick Glance: Release of White-tailed Eagle Chicks into the Wild

Minister for Heritage and Electoral Reform Malcolm Noonan stated that the eagle release program is part of the government's efforts to restore nature.

He emphasized the importance of apex predators in our skies and highlighted the eagle chicks as a symbol of nature restoration.

A total of 100 eagle chicks, collected from wild nests in Norway, were released into the Irish countryside between 2007 and 2011.

These chicks were satellite tagged to monitor their dispersal and survival rates in Ireland, assessing the success of the reintroduction program.
