Circaetus gallicus information navigator

Three texts dedicated to Short-toed Eagle are presented here. They all are in different formats and knit together by the authors (Guido Premuda, Luca Baghino & Marco Gustin), by a territory of the researches (Italy) /map/ and by year of issue (2006):

• Luciano RUGGIERI, Guido PREMUDA, Luca BAGHINO, Luca GIRAUDO, 2006 – Esperienza di monitoraggio su vasta scala della migrazione autunnale del Biancone Circaetus gallicus in Italia e nel Mediterraneo centrale [A large-scale survey of the autumn migration of Short-toed Eagles across Italy and the Central Mediterranean] // Avocetta, 30: 76-80. – (It) (source – EBN Italia website).

• Luca BAGHINO, Guido PREMUDA, 2006 – Consistente migrazione pre-riproduttiva del Biancone Circaetus gallicus lungo il versante tirrenico ligure-toscano [Substantial pre-reproductive migration of the Short-toed Eagle along the Tyrrhenian coast of Liguria and Tuscany] // Rete Natura 2000 in Liguria: Pubblicazioni – (It) (source – Parco del Beigua website).

• Luca BAGHINO, Marco GUSTIN, 2006 – Censimenti dei flussi migratori dei rapaci diurni e altri grandi veleggiatori in transito nella ZPS “Beigua-Turchino” // Rete Natura 2000, Parco del Beigua – (It) (source – Parco del Beigua website).

The last work concerns Short-toed Eagle among other Raptors.

This is just a little excursion through Short-toed Eagles’ nesting zones, hunting territories and other places and things, connected with them somehow in Kiev Region (central Ukraine) /map/. We would like to invite you to feel Short-toed Eagles’ world through these images.

See please results of the search in the India Nature Watch galleries. Images of Indian Short-toed Eagles are presented there:

All four Short-toed Eagles with satellite transmitters are here in Israel /map/. One of them (the male) we know where he is nesting, so hopefully we will get some pictures.

Just one more Russian text of 20 years ago on Short-toed Eagles’ nesting in the Vetluga and the Unzha rivers interfluve /map/ is brought to your attention:

• Кузнецов А.В., 1985 – Гнездование змееяда в междуречье Унжи и Ветлуги [Breeding of Short-toed Eagle in the area between the Unzha and Vetluga rivers, Kostroma Region] // Орнитология. М.: Изд-во МГУ, Вып.20. 129-132 (Ru).

This article was published as the result of A. V. Kuznetsov‘s four years’ observations on a pair of the birds in the mentioned region.
