New annual report by Jean-Pierre and Isabelle Malafosses on their research of Short-toed Eagle in the Cévennes National Park /map/:

Monitoring of Raptors in Lozère and in the Cévennes National Park], rapport interne C.R.B.P.O./P.N.C.: 11 p. – (Fr) {rough translation}.

This document describes the problem of relationships between man and bird regarding methods of the colour marking. The text is available in French and in English now. Also you can say your opinion on the subject making the comment on the Manifeste anti-plastique blog in French or right here in English. As Short-toed Eagle researchers use the colour ringing and the alar marking methods in their work the question must be topical for them.
