For the first time, a sea eagle winters on the southern shore of Lake Ammersee. Sea eagles rarely come to the foothill lakes to overwinter before they move further north to breed in March.

In 2023, 32 pairs of sea eagles were registered across Bavaria. The sea eagle's diet also includes waterfowl: “They eat everything they can get, including carrion and fish,” says Landsberg hobby birdwatcher Peter Weibl.
