Sadly, some of the birds we are tracking do not survive.\u00a0 A Steppe eagle (8751, Figure 1) tagged by us in late winter 2021-22 perished in Yemen.\u00a0 The positive side of this is that we were able to harness the help of Yemeni co-operators to determine the actual fate of the bird, and information on the causes of death for the bird species we are tracking help us understand the conservation threats they face.<\/p>\n

Establishing a working partnership with colleagues in Yemen is important because many of the migratory eagles that pass through Kuwait spend their winters in Yemen. Unfortunately, Yemen seems to be a country where many migratory raptors either die or are taken into captivity. Indeed, currently another Steppe eagle and a Long-legged buzzard we have been tracking were last heard in Yemen.\u00a0 We are trying to determine the fate of those birds.<\/p>\n

The Steppe eagle was caught by us at the Al Jahra reserve<\/a> on 29 March 2022.\u00a0 After release, 8751 flew south into Saudi Arabia, and wandered.\u00a0 On 22 April 2021 the eagle started to migrate and made a concerted push north.\u00a0 On 7 May the eagle arrived on the summering grounds.\u00a0 However, it seemed not to be a breeding bird\/territory holder.\u00a0 This was not surprising because the eagle was only three years old, and thus a subadult.\u00a0 On the summering grounds the eagle spent much of its time in two locales in southern Russia (Figure 2).\u00a0 It is likely that these areas held good populations of small rodents upon which the eagle would have fed.\u00a0 On 15 September 2021, the eagle started migration south, and proceeded at a steady pace to Yemen.<\/p>\n

On 13 November 2022 data from the tracking device stopped suddenly.\u00a0 The last location was at 15.1649\u00b0N, 44.57455\u00b0E a location next to a major road near Khawlan. On 30 November 2022 KEL reached out through Richard Porter to Ahmed Soliman via email.\u00a0 Ahmed then arranged for colleagues to visit the area and search for the bird and transmitter.\u00a0 They found the carcass of the ringed eagle, with the tracking device (Figure 3), and KEL confirmed the bird\u2019s identity.\u00a0 Evidence at the scene suggested the eagle may have been hit by a car.\u00a0 The transmitter was not functioning.\u00a0 At the time of its death it was not clear whether the eagle had stopped migrating.\u00a0 In total since capture (230 days) the eagle travelled at least 12,820 km.\u00a0 Figure 5 illustrates the pattern of movement during different annual phases.<\/p>\n
