Circaetus gallicus information navigator

Heartful thanks to Javier Blasco-Zumeta for few fullsized illustrations to his information sheet! They are represented below:

Systema Naturae is a website developed by Vincenzo Rizzo Pinna. He studies birds of prey including Short-toed Eagles in the Maremma Regional Park /map/ and in other places. Let us show you a little gallery of unique video clips (see them below) dedicated to Short-toed Eagles in the Maremma park and also some photos.

In the first video you can see Francesco Petretti /map/. He is a prominent Italian ornithologist and researcher of Short-toed Eagle, he took part in the creation of the “L’Aquila dei serpenti” film. Also you can enjoy all videos uploaded by Vincenzo directly on YouTube.

Visit please Javier Blasco-Zumeta’s site to find some information on identification of birds in nature. This information sheet – (En) on two pages with demonstrative photos (moult and age-specific changes) – could be helpful in the field together with article of Guido Premuda and Andrea Corso about the plumage characters. Also we have the fullsized illustrations to view the plumage more particularly.

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.

Please let me call your attention to this Google’s service. Many people put their photos now on Picasa Web Albums, and Google allows to search there what you want. Of course we want to get new Short-toed Eagles images. If you use the names in different languages, the search will be the most effective. When getting the results, you should click “repeat the search with the omitted results included” at the bottom of the page; and when viewing a single photo, just don’t forget to click on the icon to see the photo’s full size.

Several photos made by Tomi Muukkonen in Israel and in Spain during the season 2007 are put on the birdphoto.fi website. Images of flying young, immature and adult Short-toed Eagles come under our notice because of well recognizable age characters of the plumage.

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:
