Witnessing the first naturally born white-tailed eagle fledgling in over 200 years in England was a moment in history—and one I’ll never forget. From awe-inspiring flight sequences to intimate moments of territorial display, this film captures a powerful rewilding success story. These birds, once extinct from our skies, now soar again over southern England.

The encounter wasn’t just technical—it was moving. Watching this magnificent pair settle, display, and build in their new home felt like seeing Britain’s wild soul take flight once more.
