Abstract

Spatial and temporal changes in the nutrition of four species of diurnal birds of prey and six species of owls, traditionally referred to polyphages (generalists), are considered. Based on the literature data and our own observations, we have provided a classification of birds of prey according to their feeding and nest building characteristics. The main ways of interaction of these aspects of raptors` life and the importance of their understanding for the effective planning and development of measures for the conservation of the studied species are presented.
