In 2017, a total of 36 ornithologists and birdwatchers participated in the work of the Raptor Ringing Center of the Russian Raptor Research and Conservation Network and ringed 498 individuals of 23 species of Birds of Prey and Owls. The leading species that have maximum ringed individuals is Steppe Eagle (Aquila nipalensis) – 146 individuals; it followed by White-Tailed Eagle (Haliaeetus albicilla) and Osprey (Pandion haliaetus) – 53 individuals per species, Imperial Eagle (Aquila heliaca) – 45 individuals, and Saker Falcon (Falco cherrug) – 42 individuals. During the last 7 months of 2017 and the first 4 months of 2018 we got an information about 37 ringed raptors, 32 of them were possible to read and identify. The highest number of recoveries we got from Eastern Imperial Eagle and White-Tailed Eagle (6 recoveries per species).
