White-tailed eagle chicks have successfully fledged from wild nests in England for the fourth consecutive year.

Two out of five pairs of eagles released by a reintroduction project successfully bred and raised young with one chick fledging from a nest in Dorset and two more in Sussex.

The project, run by Forestry England and the Roy Dennis Wildlife Foundation, aims to return the species to England. Nine birds have been born in the wild since it began in 2019.
