Store Mosse National Park - feeding of white-tailed eagles and golden eagles
The meat at the feeding is from traffic-damaged game. During the winter months, golden eagles and white-tailed eagles are fed in Store Mosse National Park. It is mainly golden eagles and white-tailed eagles, but the goshawk is also a recurring guest. Flocks of ravens usually stay at the feeding site, they serve as bodyguards and extra eyes for the larger birds of prey. When the ravens consider it safe to settle down and eat, it signals to the eagles that the situation is calm, come and eat...

Store Mosse National Park is located in Småland, in Jönköping County, near Hillerstorp between Värnamo and Gnosjö. Store Mosse National Park consists of a large marsh area with pine moors, lakes and forest areas. The landscape is characterized by open spaces where mosses and marshes spread out, and where bridges and trails make it possible to move through the terrain. The area is home to several bird species that thrive in wetlands, and there are also mammals that move between the forest and the open fields. The national park has a visitor center, marked trails and viewpoints that provide an overview of the marsh landscape. There are also cultural traces in the form of older crofts and remains of previous land use. The nature of the park varies throughout the year, and visitors can experience both drier areas and more waterlogged areas depending on the season and rainfall.
