HE Eagle Fisherman chooses to live wet inside and coastal areas where fish are present in abundancethat form the basis of your diet. It is a winter species that moves to tropical Africa to pass and feed in summer.
It is reproduced from March on the Iberian Peninsula and in other natural spaces in Europe. Anida in coastal cliffs or Roquedos and in turrets, trees or platforms in continental waters, where it places 2 to 3 eggs.

He Natural Paraje Marismas del Odiel is attached as the best nesting space of the Iberian Peninsula peninsula After this year, a total of twelve pairs consolidated their territory. Of these, ten evolve favorably, so it is expected to be one of the most productive in chickens born and raised.
This was emphasized on Monday to the ring of two chickens of the species of a sitting couple in the aforementioned placeComposed of a man who was born in the same place in 2014 and born a woman in the national park of the Cabrera archipelago (Balearic Islands) in 2011, and who have been raising together since 2018.
The consolidation of this space It has been possible thanks to the reintroduction project of the species, started in 2002, with which a progressive implementation of reproductive couples has been achieved. The delegate has had faith in “that they continue between twenty -five and twenty -five chickens, which would mean a record, both in the natural space itself and, most likely, surpassed on the Iberian peninsula last year in which eight reproductive pairs raised nineteen chickens.”
Great performance of the reintroduction project of the species
Likewise, Yórquez has appreciated ‘the arrival and consolidation of reproductive samples of natural spaces of different points of Iberian geography, both peninsula and insular, as well as the Wife of the Balearic Islands, and other players already settled in Marismas del Odiel who come from Portugal of CádizGiving genetic variability to this species and therefore ensure a reproductive population and grow eagle Visser in Huelva ”.
“The fact that it has gone of an extinct species in the natural place and reserve of the Marismas del Odiel biosphere to be the place with the largest number of reproductive pairs and chickens that have been lifted in the Iberian peninsula, It makes it possible to confirm that the reintroduction program of the Visser -offsperer in this natural space has been a resounding success“Said Pedro Yórquez.
The process of Ringing serves to arrange the evolution and movements of animals for the coming yearsWhile organic and biometric samples allow vets of the endangered species recovery center for health study.
Marmismas del Odiel, Biosmosphere Reserve explained in 1983, includes a protected surface From 7,185 hectares of the municipalities of Huelva, Punta Umbría, Aljaraque and Gibraleón.
