Some news about the migration of ST Eagles in the Italian Peninsula.

Adult Short-toed Eagle in flight. Photo by Guido PremudaGuido Premuda‘s Sunbird.it has been complemented with new papers (It) on the Bibliography page. They all are dedicated to observations of migratory birds of prey in the Apuan Alps /map/ during several consecutive seasons, including records of numerous Short-toed Eagles:

Some videos of Short-toed Eagles taken in April

Apr 28, 2015 / No Comments

There are some fresh videos for April: three of them have been made with the camera installed at a nest of Short-toed Eagles in Israel /map/ by Guilad Friedemann.

April 3 : the Short-toed Eagle female is laying the egg April 5 : replacing the female with the male early in the morning April 5 : arrival of the male with prey for his mate
April 5 : a Short-toed Eagle male is «waltzing» without and with prey at his breeding site after the arrival from the wintering grounds April 11 : Short-toed Eagles are mating on a dead pine at their breeding site in the morning

The last two ones were taken from a distance in Northern Ukraine /map/ by me. Please note that all the clips are available in HD quality.

One more fossil Circaetus has been described in Bulgaria

Apr 15, 2015 / No Comments

This time fossil remains of an ancient species of Circaetus were found in the vicinity of the Varshets town (Northwestern Bulgaria) /map/. This species had lived in SE Europe about 2.2-2.4 millions of years ago:

• Z. Boev, 2015 – An Early Pleistocene Snake Eagle, Circaetus haemusensis sp. n. (Aves, Accipitriformes) from Varshets, Northwestern Bulgaria // Acta zool. bulg., 67 (1): pp. 127-138. – Short-toed Eagle. file (En).

The current article, like the prevous one, is represented on a website of the journal Acta zoologica bulgarica.
