The Hungarian Ornithological Society (MME) – http://www.mme.hu/ – made the 7th Hungarian Eagle count in January. During this event over 245 observers counted wintering eagles all over Hungary. The most common eagle was White-tailed Eagle with 443-451 individuals and about 60 of these were in the Hortobágy region! Second most common was the Eastern Imperial Eagle with 125-127 individuals seen, followed by two Golden Eagles and a Greater Spotted Eagle.

The activity around the Sakertour eagle hides in the Hortobágy National Park is still good with White-tailed Eagles our daily guests.
