The following is a digest of Sightings Reported on Birdpedia for the period Monday, February 2, 2015 to Sunday, February 8, 2015: Area: SA Location: Newland Head C/P, North Eastern area Wedge-tailed Eagle (Aquila audax) (3) 2 adult and one juvenile were soaring above open ground in the Northern area of the park. Reported by: Winston Syson on Saturday, February 7, 2015 ——————————————— Location: One kilometre approximately offshore from Henley Jetty. Arctic Jaeger (Stercorarius parasiticus) (1) A single bird circling our boat about 50 or 60 metres high then went off in a northerly direction. Very white underparts and I have heard from my peers that this colouration is difficult to diagnose from long tailed skuas/jaegers in this plumage? (I took a punt after viewing many pics on bird sites?) Reported by: Anthony John Bainbridge on Saturday, February 7, 2015 ——————————————— Need more information about a sighting?
