Sigmar


A Lesser Spotted Eagle, nicknamed Sigmar after Germany’s environmental minister, bred by an EU project designed to reintroduce the bird into Germany, hand-raised and fitted with a transmitter to track him. In the project, the second chick is removed from an eagle’s nest and hand raised to prevent the older chick killing it. Sigmar is one of two birds from the project injured this year (2007). On his first trip to Africa he was shot over Malta, found, sent back to Germany, had to undergo operations, and finally succumbed to his serious injuries in December 2007.
