Steppe Eagles in Oman
The rubbish tip in Raysut, S Oman, used to be one of the highlights in every trip to this amazing country. Big numbers of Eagles gathered together to feed on dead dromedaries and other carcasses, offering unparalleled opportunities to study their plumages and behaviour. Steppe Eagle was always the commonest species, with hundreds of individuals present. Eastern Imperial and Greater Spotted Eagles were also pretty common, numbered in the dozens. Here we present a large series of photos of Steppe Eagles obtained in this spot, depicting the variation within all age-classes.
