A large legendary bird of prey, since the 2000s, the golden eagle can once more be seen in the Jura skies. Initially restricted to the National Natural Reserve of the High-Jura mountain range, its territory is slowly expanding towards the west and the north.
It has an impressive wingspan that can reach over 2 metres wide, 1.5 times wider than that of a buzzard. Its rectangular wings, with finger-like ends help to identify it when you know what to look for.
