Circaetus gallicus information navigator

One more series of Short-toed Eagles photos can be viewed here. They all were made in Gironde /map/. These single fragments of the Eagles’ being were caught by Yves Forget (circa33.free.fr) during his observations in 2005-2007 years.

Let us invite you to take part in common collection of short descriptions of Short-toed Eagles biotopes in different regions. This idea belongs to Bernard Joubert. The project aims to describe the whole area of the species distribution. It should be something like collection of photos of typical for Short-toed Eagles hunting and breeding territories with short notes about the authors, their comments, which will be connected with a map. The test version of it can be viewed here. Please, if you have some propositions, we would be glad to discuss them – info@short-toed-eagle.net; or as a comment to this post.

See please photos of Short-toed Eagles made in August, 2007 in Gironde (France) /map/. These scenes of Short-toed Eagles’ life are kind contribution of Françoise Gérardin:

Here we present three different authors’ texts dedicated to Short-toed Eagles of three different regions: Crimea, Belarus and Turkmenistan. They are extracts…

…from S.A. Bukreev’s book (Ru):
• Букреев С.А., 1997 – Орнитогеография и заповедное дело Туркменистана [Ornithogeography and reserve management of Turkmenistan] – М.: Центр охраны дикой природы (Biodiversity Conservation Center), 159 с.

…from Y.V. Kostin’s book (Ru):
• Костин Ю.В., 1983 – Птицы Крыма [Birds of Crimea] – М.: Наука, 240 с. /map/.

…and from V.V. Ivanovski’s work (Ru):
• Ивановский В.В., 1992 – Трофические связи редких хищных птиц Белорусского Поозерья [Food chains of rare birds of prey of Belarussian Poozer’e] // Оттиск, №173, 66 с. /map/.

New personal site of famous French researcher, Yves Boudoint /map/, has been created. Among the sections there are many different photos of Short-toed Eagles, old and relatively new texts (Fr) and presentations of materials on CD and DVD dedicated to the birds. The site’s content tells its own story.

A Short-toed Eagle painted on it’s underwing coverts with red, was seen in Jibraltar this Autumn. No one declared doing such thing and it could be someone not a researcher who has done this marking. At beginning we suspected it is one of mine, but later and after describing the marking seen, i understood it is not one of mine, and possibly not of a researcher because the mark was a huge mark with no coding method.

If anyone knows something about that please contact me at:
