Are the tags heavy for the chicks to carry?
The tag weighs just 70 grams, a tiny fraction of the chick’s body weight. Thanks to bird of prey expert Roy Dennis’s previous work with the Highland Foundation for Wildlife, we know that eagles can carry them without problems on thousands of miles of successful flight for many years. If the tags and rings affected the birds’ behaviour, it would make the research invalid.
