Search results for Short-toed Eagle (Biancone) in some Italian photo galleries are presented here:

As usually while veiwing many similar images we can find absolutely new and unusual ones. Sometimes they remind interesting scenes watched by ourselves in nature.

Two new articles (Ru) of Nikolay Berezovikov have been published in the Russian Ornithological Journal. The study region is located in Eastern Kazakhstan /map/:

An interview about HoverOverUs • Short-toed-Eagle and about the research and conservation of Short-toed Eagles has recently been given by me and been published on the Interviews section of the European Raptors website. This site is a relatively new project developed by Markus Jais and dedicated to the biology and conservation of European Raptors.

Results of the 8-years monitoring of Short-toed Eagle population in Provence /map/ by Richard Frèze:

• Richard Frèze, 2009 – Étude d’une population de Circaètes sur le massif de la Sainte-Baume et les collines environnantes – (Fr).

The last one, seventh – (Fr) was released in April 2009 as a result of the 2^nd meeting of the Circaetus Network that had held in Nadaillac-de-Rouge (Lot, France) in November 2008.

RÉSUMÉS DES INTERVENTIONS

New videos made by Vincenzo Rizzo Pinna in 2009 are uploaded on YouTube. A summer life of one more Short-toed Eagle nest in Maremma Regional Park /map/ is illustrated by them:

All the subsections are being updated along the year. In fact the main aim of the site is to present data on the Short-toed Eagles of the south of France where they do not have been study until now.

A new article written by Dimitris E. Bakaloudis by results of researches of Short-toed Eagle in Greece /map/ is put now on the Ornis Fennica site. You can find it among a few other works on the Online early section:

• Dimitrios E. Bakaloudis, 2009 – Implications for conservation of foraging sites selected by Short-toed Eagles (Circaetus gallicus) in Greece // Ornis Fennica 86:89–96. – (En).
