Hi,
I'm curious to know when you think Eagles, south of Alicante in Spain, would breed and for how long?
The area is in a mountain range close to Crevillente and I know they nest there every year but I don't know exactly when and for how long.
I don't know which species it is either but it could be any of these four:
Aquila fasciata
Aquila adalberti
Aquila pennata
Aguililla calzada
I have seen them on a distance several times, a couple hunting, but have got no photos. The plumage of the wings was very dark except for the bend of wing + lesser wing-coverts (and lesser under w-c) and probably median wing-coverts (and greater under w-c) (but not secondary coverts) where white or whitish in color. I don't remember the body or tail, sorry.
I want to plan a trip with my photography gear and take a bunch of photos at such time from the mountain top as this would be the easiest time to get good photos of them and their young.
Any help on this is very much appreciated.
