ON THE ISSUE OF NESTING BIOLOGY OF THE BOOTED EAGLE ON THE TERRITORY OF EUROPEAN RUSSIA
Abstract
This paper is devoted to the study of nesting
biology of the Booted Eagle (Hieraaetus pennatus Gm.)
on the territory of European Russia. The following records
have been put to scrutiny: the time of the arrival at nesting
places, the location of nests within the forest, types of
nesting trees, nesting biotopes, the height of nests above
the ground. The results indicate considerable adaptive
potential and ecological plasticity of this species.
