The iconic Kirra Eagle has made its final journey home to Kirra Hill this morning.
The 1796-kilogram replica sculpture boasting a wingspan of 4.5 metres was carefully transported from the Tugun depot and lifted by crane into place at R T Peak Memorial Park on Kirra Hill.
"I know the community will be extremely excited to see the Kirra Eagle returned to its home overlooking the coastline," Division 14 Councillor Gail O'Neill said.
"This sculpture is an exact replica of the original in honour of a much-loved icon that sat atop Kirra Hill for decades and has always held a special place in our hearts."
"The return of the eagle is about reconnecting with our history and celebrating the creative spirit of our community."
