Black Eagle Nest Cam

A Cliff-Side Eyrie of the Verreaux's Eagle

The camera frames the large stick nest of a resident pair of black eagles (Verreaux's eagles), built on a sheer rock ledge of the Selati escarpment. Renowned for their striking black plumage and white V-shaped back markings, these apex raptors return to the same eyrie year after year to raise their young.

The Selati Wilderness Backdrop

Behind the nest unfolds a sweeping view of the Selati Game Reserve in Limpopo, a vast mosaic of granite koppies, open savanna and dense bushveld dedicated to long-term conservation within the greater Kruger landscape.

Behaviour Through the Breeding Cycle

Viewers can follow the full drama of eagle family life — aerial courtship displays, the careful arrangement of nesting material, incubation of the eggs and the steady growth of the eaglets as they prepare to fledge from the cliff.
