Sea Eagles in Suffolk

Plans to reintroduce sea eagles to the Suffolk coast have been put on hold due to the economic conditions.

It would have been nice to see them, but the pig and poultry famers opposed to the plan have realistic fears.  Many animals run for cover when they perceive danger and who knows what will happen.

But if the Suffolk coast is so suitable from sea eagles, I suspect that in perhaps the next century nature will take its course and they’ll be back. Look how falcons have come to live in Brussels Cathedral. Remember sea eagles live on carrion, so perhaps their niche is now filled by the countless crows and magpies, we seem to have everywhere. Are these birds partly responsible for the decline in small birds?
