I note that bird guides reported the/a white tailed eagle at Spalding earlier today and now have noted a report of a collared pratincole at Gibraltar Point. Although I was told the eagle was seen in Suffolk I am wondering if it is our birds going south

Seeing as a juv WTE was seen at various places on the Norfolk coast on Wednesday / Thursday last week, it could be the Louth (our) one coming back north! Or there is more than one :?:

So does this mean that there is a single bird that is doing a commute between Louth and Norfolk / Suffolk on a regular basis? Is this likely and why always south from here not further North?

So today is it the Louth bird going south west or the Norfolk bird going North West as Bird Guides is reporting a white tailed eagle over Collingham pits?
