264. Join the quest to return eagles to the skies of Wales
Description
Will eagles return to Wales in the next couple of years? Sophie-Lee Williams of Eagle Reintroduction Wales is confident that mighty white-tailed eagles will be soaring in Welsh skies very soon, just as they are in southern England and western Scotland. But how realistic is her plan and how will she deal with the objectors?
Plodcast host Fergus met Sophie-Lee at Kenfig Pool on the coast near Bridgend, where the eagles were last seen in Wales.
