Hi everyone,
First time posting on this forum so hello to you all!
I'm on holiday in Scotland in the 'Arrochar Alps' near Loch Lomand and the Trossachs and saw at least 1, maybe 2 huge looking raptors circling above the mountain on the other side of the loch. I did at one point see one getting mobbed by a crow and the size difference was massive.
The pictures are terrible as it was at huge range and full zoom but shows what I think are more rectangular wings than a buzzard. It's not easy to tell but the fingers are heavily splayed. Hopefully the quality doesn't get lowered further by sending them on here.
Do we think at least one of these birds is a golden? 😊 Never self found a golden eagle and only ever seen them once (live in Surrey).
Thanks all!
Adam
