Circaetus gallicus information navigator

We try to not miss an appearance of papers about Short-toed Eagle on the Web. Every freely accessible article is added to the collection, a kind of specialized library. Certainly, the majority of them aren’t new, but they are not of less interest due to this. The following ones can be viewed on websites of the journal of ornithology Tichodroma and of Sovon.nl, Dutch Centre for Field Ornithology:

At this time, when Short-toed Eagles are arriving to their breeding sites in northern parts of their European and Asian areal, we would like to draw your attention to the article about Short-toed Eagle from the monograph of Dr. Alexander Abuladze:

• Abuladze A., 2013 – Materials towards a Fauna of Georgia. Is. VI. Birds of Prey of Georgia. – Tbilisi. – 218 pp.: Short-toed Eagle Circaetus gallicus Gmelin, 1788 – P. 65-71. (En).

Heartfelt thanks to the author for sharing the text and photos of habitats! Johannes Jansen‘s review of the book can be found here.
