Of the six white-tailed eagles released on the Isle of Wight in August by the Roy Dennis Wildlife Foundation, in partnership with Forestry England, five have been content to remain largely on the island. The sixth, named Culver after Culver Cliff, the last place in which sea eagles bred on the Isle of Wight more than 200 years ago, set off for a mammoth journey to London and beyond, returning after eight days to where he began.
This podcast talks to people who saw him pass overhead - and surprisingly few did, considering that he's a bird with an eight-foot wingspan - and explores what those sightings meant to them.
