First Confirmed Record of Eastern Imperial Eagle Aquila Heliacal Il-Merill 34 2020 Il-Merill 34 2020 First confirmed record of Eastern Imperial Eagle Aquila heliaca (Savigny, 1809) in Malta Edward Bonavia Whilst monitoring raptors at Buskett at 14.50 CET on 3 November 2015, the author spotted a large Aquila sp. over Żebbuġ heading towards the Buskett observation post. After focussing a telescope on the bird, the author was surprised that it was not a Lesser Spotted Eagle Clanga pomarina but was either a juvenile Eastern Imperial Eagle Aquila heliaca or juvenile Steppe Eagle Aquila nipalensis due to size and general colouration. Furthermore, its upperparts had broad and uniform pale tips to greater coverts and a continuous white trailing edge to wing and tail. It then started soaring which presented its underparts, eliminating Steppe Eagle as all typical features of a juvenile Eastern Imperial Eagle were noted. These features included the streaked breast collar separating the pale head from the pale rear body, uniform pale underwing coverts (unlike in Steppe which has a broad white band) giving the bird a two-toned appearance to darker flight feathers and a pale window on the inner hand. Again the white trailing edge to wing and tail was also visible. At that moment the author contacted other birdwatchers to come to Buskett to observe this bird. Apart from the above mentioned features, the author also noted the short tail, and the arched wings with a conspicuous broom to their tip. The bird then flew towards Fawwara where it was lost behind a ridge at 15.05. The author then contacted local birdwatcher Stephen Cilia to direct him to a spot in Fawwara where he assumed the bird might have gone. At 15.45, the author re-sighted the bird again, over Fawwara where it had been seen last, this time together with local birders Raymond Galea and Charles Coleiro. The 87 87 Il-Merill 34 2020 Il-Merill 34 2020 bird was lost again behind the ridge after a couple of minutes, however Stephen Cilia was at the right spot at Fawwara and managed to take a number of good photographs of the bird. He also confirmed that the bird was carrying a GPS-GSM satellite tag. Following email correspondence and studying the photos of the satellite tag, it was concluded that the bird was from Austria. Further confirmation was obtained a week later when the mobile phone company confirmed that this bird’s satellite tracker had sent the last two location messages via an operator from Malta. The previous day the tag had lost its connection to a mobile network provider about 100km south of the Peloponnese off the southern coast of Greece. It was at the time heading S/SSW and erroneously ended up in Malta the following day with the prevailing easterly wind. This bird, named “NPDA2”, hatched around 3 May 2015 in the National Park Donau-Auen in the east of Vienna and was tagged in the nest (together with another chick) on 25 June. The main goal of this particular project was to inform the ongoing planning and development of windfarms in Austria on the habitat use of this species to mitigate any conflicts between this species and wind farms. The project was financed by a group of wind farm companies. In addition, there is still the threat of illegal persecution of Eastern Imperial Eagles in Austria and the neighbouring countries, and therefore these trackers provide an important tool for monitoring the extent of this threat. For this particular eagle, it would appear that this was the case; after Stephen Cilia lost sight of the bird, six shots were heard shortly after. Eastern Imperial Eagles breed in a wide zone from Austria, Slovakia and Hungary in the west through southern Russia to Lake Baikal and N. Pakistan in the east (Forsman 1999). They are a partly migratory species, with adults wintering close to their breeding grounds, also within Europe. Juveniles and subadults, but also some adults of the European population, migrate along the Eastern Mediterranean Flyway to wintering quarters in the Middle East and North Africa. Autumn migration in the Middle East peaks in late October to early November (BirdLife International, 2019) and the occurrence of the bird in Malta falls into this period. Although Schembri never saw an Eastern Imperial Eagle in Malta, he was informed by Dr. Grech Delicata that he had observed one in October 1842. Gulia (1858–1863) was assured that it was observed many times in Gozo, while Giglioli (1886) and Arrigoni degli Oddi (1929) doubted its occurrence in Malta, suspecting that observations might refer to Golden Eagle Aquila chrysaetos. Sultana et al. (1975; 1982) thus concluded that ‘in view of the lack of supporting evidence this 88 88 Il-Merill 34 2020 Il-Merill 34 2020 species should be rejected.’ Taking this into account, the observation at hand constitutes the first confirmed record of the species in Malta, and the Malta Rarities and Records Committee accepted the record on 2 February 2016. The Maltese name is Ajkla Imperjali given by Despott in his Notes on the Ornithology of Malta (1917). Acknowledgements I would like to thank Nicholas Barbara from BirdLife Malta, Matthias Schmidt from BirdLife Austria and András Kovács from the Imperial Eagle Foundation for their assistance in finding the origin and history of this bird. I would also like to thank Stephen Cilia, who was able to provide the photographic evidence needed to identify this individual.

  • Lesser Spotted Eagle
    Accipitridae: vultures, kites, hawks, eagles, buzzards and harriers 181 Lesser Spotted Eagle 14˚ Gevlekte Arend LESSER SPOTTED EAGLE Aquila pomarina 1 5 This Palearctic migrant from eastern Europe and 18˚ Russia occurs in southern Africa from late Octo- ber (mostly late November) to March. When perched it is essentially a bulky version of Wahl- berg’s Eagle A. wahlbergi in appearance, with a 22˚ pale eye and, in juveniles, white in the tail and 6 wings. The thin leggings and the downward-bent 2 primaries in flight distinguish this from other Aquila species (Brooke et al. 1972), but from a 26˚ distance its silhouette in soaring flight can be con- fused with that of the Hooded Vulture Necrosyrtes monachus. It is perhaps most frequently recorded in the Kruger National Park and the Moremi Game 7 3 30˚ Reserve and Chobe National Park of northern Botswana, where it consorts with migrant Steppe Eagles A. nipalensis. It is usually recorded in woodland regions 4 8 where rainfall exceeds 600 mm. It occurs in lower 34˚ numbers than the Steppe Eagle, in the ratio of 1:5 18˚ 22˚ 26˚ in the Transvaal (Tarboton & Allan 1984). It is 10˚ 14˚ 30˚ 34˚ often seen singly or in small flocks (Steyn 1982b); a flock of at least 250 birds was reported from along the Khwai River (1923B) (Van den Brink et al. 1994).

DOI: 10.2478/srj-2020-0006 © Raptor Protection of Slovakia (RPS) Age of maturity and exceptionally distant natal dispersal of over 500 km by a male lesser spotted eagle Clanga pomarina Vek dospelosti samca orla krikľavého Clanga pomarina a jeho mimoriadne veľký, viac ako 500 km, hniezdny rozptyl Bernd-Ulrich MEYBURG, Hinrich MATTHES & Grzegorz Maciorowski Abstract: According to previous studies using colour rings, lesser spotted eagles Clanga pomarina have established breeding ter- ritories up to 249 km from their natal site. A colour-ringed lesser spotted eagle nestling from NE Poland settled 540 km further west in NE Germany. This male was discovered at the age of six and nested there for several years. This fi nding is all the more remark- able because the bird was a male, which in large eagles typically settle nearer to their natal sites than females. They apparently reproduce successfully for the fi rst time later than females, normally at the age of fi ve. Abstrakt: Na základe predchádzajúcich štúdií využívajúcich značenie farebnými krúžkami je známe, že orly krikľavé Clanga pomarina obsadzujú hniezdne teritóriá do vzdialenosti 249 km od hniezda, kde sa vyliahli. Farebne označený orol krikľavý vyli- ahnutý v SV Poľsku obsadil teritórium 540 km na západe v SV Nemecku. Tento samec bol objavený vo veku šiestich rokov a na tom mieste hniezdil už viacero rokov. Toto zistenie je o to zaujímavejšie, že sa jedná o samca, pretože samce veľkých orlov sa obyčajne usadzujú bližšie k miestu ich vyliahnutia, než samice. Okrem toho sa samce zjavne prvýkrát rozmnožujú neskôr než samice, obyčajne vo veku piatich rokov.

  • Studies of Less Familiar Birds Ij2 Lesser Spotted Eagle B.-U
    Studies of less familiar birds ij2 Lesser Spotted Eagle B.-U. Meyburg Plates 61-64. Of all European eagles, the Lesser Spotted Eagle Aquila pomarina has the smallest world breeding range, the nominate race being confined to eastern parts of Germany, Poland, eastern Czechoslovakia, Hun­ gary, Yugoslavia, Romania, Bulgaria, north-east Greece, western Turkey (Thrace), and the Soviet Union north to Leningrad and east to about 35°E. There are no published records of proved breeding in eastern Austria this century, though pairs from Hungary hunt over the land around Lake Neusiedl. There is no clear information on the current position in the Caucasus and the south Caspian lowlands. In Germany the breeding area stretches only to the north of Berlin, westwards beyond the rivers Oder and Neisse but stopping short of the Elbe. In 1969 there were 53 known broods in this area, and possibly a further nine (H. Weber in Glutz von Blotzheim et al. 1971). Even at the beginning of this century, the breeding range extended much further westwards, at least as far as the River Weser in Niedersachsen. A second subspecies, A. p. hastata, breeds in parts of India, in particular the Ganges Valley and West Bengal, and also in Bangla Desh. Hardly anything is known about this form, which appears to be rare. The first autumn plumage is said to be quite different from that of the nominate race, which has led some authors to treat it as a separate species. The Lesser Spotted Eagle presents a very difficult problem to field and museum ornithologists alike—the clear differentiation between it and the very closely related Spotted Eagle A.

  • The Status of Birds of Prey and Owls in Hungary
    Chancellor, R. D. & B.-U. Meyburg eds. 2004 Raptors Worldwide WWGBP/MME The Status of Birds of Prey and Owls in Hungary Janos Bagyura and Laszló Haraszthy SUMMARY OF LEGAL PROTECTION OF BIRDS OF PREY IN HUNGARY All species of birds of prey occurring in Hungary are protected by law. Many years ago this was not the case; instead, their killing was encouraged. However, their role in nature is now better understood and legal protection has been improving continously since that time. Much credit is due to Janos Salamon Petényi (1799-1855), founder of Hungarian scientific ornithology. He undertook significant conservation activity in the 1830s, even though legal protection for birds was not existent at that time. The first legislation dealing with birds of prey was enacted in 1883 when the Hunting Act (Act No. 20) was passed. Under this law all species of vultures, eagles, falcons, kites, kestrels, the Goshawk Accipiter gentilis and Eagle Owl Bubo bubo could be shot even during th close season (1st Feb.- 15th Aug.) when hunting activities are restricted during the breeding season of a number of species (including mammals). In 1891 the 2nd International Congress on Ornithology was held in Budapest. This important event made the government aware of their obligations for the conservation of birds. Following the Congress, on the initiative of Otto Herman, the Hungarian Centre for Ornithology was founded in 1893. This was the beginning of nature conservation in Hungary. Since then the ornithological yearbook Aquila has been regularly published. In 1901 the Minister of Agriculture declared 132 bird species to be protected (24 55 Ministerial Decree).

Saturday 7 September 2019 The group arrived on time, on an evening flight from London Heathrow. It was already past 8pm, so after meeting in the arrivals hall and a brief introduction, we took a short drive to the nearby hotel, where we ate a late dinner. The transfer to the Pieniny Mountains took approximately two hours, and when we finally reached our small guesthouse in Kacwin, it was almost midnight. We decided to take a proper rest before an early morning wake up and everyone went to their rooms upon arrival. Day 2: Pieniny Mts. Sunday 8 September 2019 Weather: sunny, 20°C We gathered again early in the morning for a walk in the vicinity of our guesthouse. The local road took us along a small river, the Kacwinanka, towards the Slovakian border. As we walked through the broad valley’s gentle grassy slopes, we spotted migrating birds of prey (honey and common buzzards, kestrel, sparrowhawk and lesser spotted eagle), and also a black stork. We also noticed few nutcrackers moving down from the wooded slopes to hazelnut bushes in the valley. In the mild September weather we still met some red-backed shrike, redstart and spotted flycatcher. After a homemade breakfast back at our guesthouse, we next moved to the northern parts of the Pieniny Mountains, where we observed raptor migration with numerous common buzzards, kestrels, sparrowhawks and marsh harriers flying in circles above the mountain slopes.

  • Project Update: August 2016 the Results of the Final
    Project Update: August 2016 The results of the final stage of the research of the Greater Spotted Eagle in the North- West of Ukraine In the second and third weeks of July 2016, our team has monitored greater spotted eagle nesting results on the territory of Rivne and Volyn regions. As in previous years, we ringed chicks with metal and plastic rings, detected cases of hybridization of greater spotted eagle with lesser spotted eagle, looked at factors that affect breeding success, as well as studied spectrum of eagles’ feeding. Large parts of Rivne region, home to the greater spotted eagle, were covered by massive wild fires in August and September 2015. Some bird nesting territories were affected by fire and were modified. But, despite this, only one of all the tested breeding platforms was not occupied, probably that was the reason. Presumably, on the destroyed territories birds will change their nesting points within the breeding areas in the future. For the second year some areas of the marshes in summer were slightly flooded and many of them were without water at all. It is possible that as a result, the number of wetland birds that serve as feeding base for greater spotted eagle was smaller than in normal years. In total, on the territory of Rivne region (southern and northern branches, the swamp "Syraya Pogonya") eight nests were checked (one of them is new, found in winter). Three of them were occupied. There are two possibilities why it happened: or birds moved to other areas, or nesting was not successful.

    World Journal of Zoology 7 (3): 241-244, 2012 ISSN 1817-3098 © IDOSI Publications, 2012 DOI: 10.5829/idosi.wjz.2012.7.3.54131 An Account on the Habitats and Threats Vis-À-Vis Indian Spotted Eagle in Kurukshetra Environs in Haryana (India) 12Rohtash Chand Gupta and Tirshem Kumar Kaushik 1Department of Zoology, Kurukshetra University-136119, Kurukshetra, Haryana, India 2Institute of Environmental Studies, Kurukshetra University, Kurukshetra, India Abstract: The habitats of Indian Spotted Eagle in Kurukshetra are very restricted, away from the gaze of common human beings. At international level, the taxonomic jargon prevails upon the correct identification features and tools in respect of (i) Lesser Spotted Eagle Aquilla pomarina (Brehm,1831) (ii) Greater Spotted Eagle Aquilla clanga (Pallas,1811), (iii) Indian Spotted Eagle Aquilla hastata (Lesson,1834) and various hybrids and their respective age pyramids’ birds. Forgetting the complications, herein it is highlighted that isolated populations of Spotted Eagles are even, now available in Kurukshetra Environs in Haryana, India. In correlation with its dependence on small sized mammals for food, the bird has been spotted in totally isolated open grassy un-maneuvered agriculture fields preserved as inter-space between different new residential blocks of Sushant City on National Highway-1, 3 Kms away from Kurukshetra, down south towards Delhi. The other groups/populations spotted include in Nilokheri Town, 16 Kms down south from Kurukshetra. These birds were seen in a very activity-filled mode of flight in skies, perching on electricity poles in avenues and simultaneously vigorously overflying agriculture fields dotted with bills of wild rodents. Such limited populations of Indian spotted Eagle are found between far and few.

  • Status, Distribution and Breeding Biology of Lesser Spotted Eagleaquila Pomarina Hastata in Keoladeo National Park
    Meyburg. B-U. & R. D. Chancellor eds. 1996 Eagle Studies World Working Group on Birds of Prey (WWGBP) Berlin, London & Paris Status, Distribution and Breeding Biology of Lesser Spotted EagleAquila pomarina hastata in Keoladeo National Park Vibhu Prakash INTRODUCTION The Lesser Spotted Eagle Aquila pomarina hastata is endemic to the Indian Subcontinent. This paper describes its only known nest recorded for 81 years (Prakash 1988), and observations on its breeding biology recorded for the first t i m e . Its present status and distribution in its known range is described. Unlike the nominate race pomarina, nothing is known about its ecology, except for general and incidental published notes on its occurrence, habitat and behaviour (Ali & Ripley 1982; Baker 1932; Davidson 1908; Whymper 1905; Jesse 1903; Anderson 1875). In the literature, wherever it occurs, it has been described as rare (Ali & Ripley 1983). Its distribution covers the Gangetic plains east through Bihar, Bengal and Bangladesh, and south to Madhya Pradesh and Orissa. One record is from as far as the Nilgiris in Tamil Nadu in south India. In Assam, it occurs both north and south of the Brahmaputra and also in Manipur (Ali & Ripley 1983). STUDY AREA The Keoladeo National Park, situated at 27°7.6'-27°12.22 N and 77°29.5 -77°33.9 E is 2 km south-east of Bharatpur city and 180 km south of Delhi (Figure 1). It covers about 29 km2 of flattish terrain sloping to a slight depression of about 8.5 km2 in the centre. This forms the main submersible area of the park and has been divided into several unequal compartments by dykes (Ali & Vijayan 1986).
