Neue Aquila Datenlogger
Wir freuen uns, die Einführung einer völlig neuen Reihe von Aquila-Loggern bekannt zu geben. Die wichtigsten Neuerungen sind das Gewicht, das das Spektrum der Vogelarten, auf welche man die einsetzen kann, deutlich erweitert, und die Datenübertragung per GPRS, die die Kosten der Datenerfassung enorm reduziert.

Wintering habitats of Egyptian Vultures (and Steppe Eagles) in India - the article
Summary: Egyptian Vultures are globally threatened species and their breeding range stretch from southwestern Europe in the eastern direction up to northwestern India, as well as sub-Saharan Africa. In summer 2022 five individuals of the species were tagged with Aquila dataloggers within the conservation project “Endangered raptor species conservation on the Indo-Palearctic migratory flyway in Kazakhstan”. All the five individuals flew southeast for their autumn migration and four birds reached Rajasthan Region in India, where three of the birds remained while one travelled further south to Pakistan. In January 2023, I visited India and the wintering grounds of the three birds, successfully finding all of them, which gave an opportunity to describe the wintering habitats and birds’ behaviors. In addition, one Steppe Eagle tagged also with Aquila logger in 2021 in Khakassia Region, Russia within the RRRCN Conservation Project, was wintering in the area.

Third International Scientific and Practical Conference "Eagles of Palearctic: Study and Conservation"
On September 24th-29th 2023, in the city of Almaty in Kazakhstan the Third International Scientific and Practical Conference "Eagles of Palearctic: Study and Conservation" will take place. It is a cyclical meeting of scientists from all over the world involved in the study and protection of birds of prey. The first and second were held in Russia in 2013 and 2018.
This time we are proud to inform that the Aquila company is an official partner of the conference.
Bearded vulture! At last!
We are extremely proud to inform that this year it was finally possible to fit with our logger a Bearded vulture Gypaetus barbatus. It all took place in Armenia within a scientific project conducted by the NABU Armenia team. This very small (as the picture shows) lifeform successfully left the nest and is soaring over mountain tops of Armenia, Iran and Iraq.
His migration can be followed on the map on the home page of our portal. This year we also included data from Egyptian vultures Neophron percnopterus.
