摘要: Abstract Diet of Bald Eagles (Haliaeetus leucocephalus) in the Florida Bay estuary was determined from prey remains nest sites and used to evaluate differences between two time periods, 1972 1973 breeding seasons compared with 2009 2010. Between these underwent a well-documented series ecological changes beginning late 1980s, which significantly altered ecosystem. To examine hypothesis that may have shifted Eagle diets, we 571 (30 species) collected 1972/1973 21 sites, 419 (22 2009/2010 11 sites. Fish made up majority (80.7% 69.5% by number, respectively) birds were second (15.8% 29.1%). Hardhead catfish (Arius felis) skulls individual both periods (55% 54%). also ate larger seasons, as m...
