Hometown INVERELL Episode 2 The Sea Eagle

Few Australian birds of prey are as spectacular as the White-bellied Sea-Eagle. It is similar in size and shape to the  Wedge-tailed Eagle.  The sea-eagle is easily recognised  by its white and ashy-grey plumage, giving the bird a striking appearance as it soars effortlessly on broad wings in the Australian sky. Despite its name, the sea-eagle is not confined to the coastal area, and it can be found at terrestrial wetlands far from the sea,  along larger inland rivers and at freshwater swamps and lakes. Lake Inverell has become home to the stunning bird and we have several couples nesting at the Lake and Macintyre River.
