A Guide to Finding Birds in Odessa Region, Ukraine

Paul Goriup

2015

"This book provides the first guide to the best places for exploring the region and its birds. It covers the amazing Danube delta (a fifth of which is in Ukraine), the extensive Black Sea coastal lagoons, wide rolling steppes, and the southern fringes of the Boreal forest, all of which occur in Odessa. A checklist of over 220 of the most regularly occurring birds is also provided, along with background information about the region and some other features of interest worth a visit."

Atlas of Duck Populations in Eastern Europe

Janis Viksne, Saulius Švažas, Alexandre Czajkowski, Mara Janaus, Alexander Mischenko, Alexander Kozulin, Andres Kuresoo, Valentin Serebryakov

2011

"The Atlas of Duck Populations in Eastern Europe is a synthesis of recent knowledge on 11 duck species of Eastern Europe, in six Eastern European countries (Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, European Russia, Belarus and Ukraine)... Eurasian Widgeon, Gadwall, Common Teal, Mallard, Northern Pintail, Garganey, Northern Shoveler, Ferruginous Duck, Common Pochard, Tufted Duck, Greater Scaup.

The Atlas of Duck Populations in Eastern Europe documents the distribution range, the numbers and population trends, migration routes, the current conservation status of each species, and identifies the factors which regulate or threaten their populations. It also shows the recent changes in the distribution, behavior and survival strategy of these birds affected by climate change: the shift to the northeast of the breeding range, shorter migration routes, introduction of new routes and stopover sites, emergence of a continental wintering and development since the 1980s/1990s to partially migratory and sedentary populations right into the heart of major urban areas."
