Abstract The Woodpigeon (Columba palumbus) is a species typically known for its successful colonization of urban habitats across Europe in the last century. However, this is a comparably new phenomenon for Belarus because active colonization of towns and cities by the urban Woodpigeon only started within this country in the late 2000s. The spread of the urban Woodpigeon, from the first breeding birds originating at the west border to as far as 530 km to the east of Belarus, occurred during a 25–30-year period. Also previously studied was the spatial distribution, habitat preferences and some nest characteristics of the urban Woodpigeon in Minsk, the largest city of Belarus, in 2012–2017. The average density of breeding pairs decreased from public gardens and parks to green plantations near multistoried buildings. In city blocks, the percentage of the ground covered by grass vegetation, tree crowns and the number of trees can negatively influence nest site selection of the Woodpigeon and indicate that pigeons chose the most urbanized places. Also, the distance to the nests of avian predators (the Hooded Crow and the Eurasian Magpie) was a significant factor negatively affecting the selection of nest sites by the urban Woodpigeon. The selection of nest sites in places with vehicle traffic and human disturbance as a way of avoiding predators was discussed. The analysis of the nest sites of the Woodpigeon in urban habitats showed that from 19 plant species or taxa, this species mainly selected the linden (Tilia cordata) (53.5%). Concerning the nest characteristics among urban habitats we did not find essential differences.

白俄罗斯东北部繁殖区城市斑鸠(Columba palumbus)的分布和栖息地偏好

摘要 木鸽 (Columba palumbus) 是一种典型的物种,因其在上个世纪在欧洲城市栖息地的成功殖民而闻名。然而,对于白俄罗斯来说,这是一个相对较新的现象,因为城市木鸽对城镇和城市的积极殖民化是在 2000 年代后期才开始在该国境内进行的。城市木鸽的传播,从最初起源于西部边境的繁殖鸟类到白俄罗斯东部 530 公里,发生在 25 至 30 年的时间里。之前还研究了 2012-2017 年白俄罗斯最大城市明斯克的城市林鸽的空间分布、栖息地偏好和一些巢穴特征。从公共花园和公园到多层建筑附近的绿色种植园,繁殖对的平均密度下降。在城市街区​​,草地植被覆盖的地面百分比、树冠和树木数量会对林鸽的巢址选择产生负面影响,表明鸽子选择了城市化程度最高的地方。此外,与鸟类掠食者(连帽乌鸦和欧亚喜鹊)的巢穴的距离是对城市林鸽选择巢穴产生负面影响的重要因素。讨论了在有车辆通行和人为干扰的地方选择筑巢地点作为躲避捕食者的一种方式。对城市栖息地林鸽筑巢地点的分析表明,从19种植物或分类群中,该物种主要选择椴树(Tilia cordata)(53.5%)。关于城市栖息地之间的巢穴特征,我们没有发现本质差异。树冠和树木数量会对木鸽的巢址选择产生负面影响,并表明鸽子选择了最城市化的地方。此外,与鸟类掠食者(连帽乌鸦和欧亚喜鹊)的巢穴的距离是对城市林鸽选择巢穴产生负面影响的重要因素。讨论了在有车辆通行和人为干扰的地方选择筑巢地点作为躲避捕食者的一种方式。对城市栖息地林鸽筑巢地点的分析表明,从19种植物或分类群中,该物种主要选择椴树(Tilia cordata)(53.5%)。关于城市栖息地之间的巢穴特征,我们没有发现本质差异。树冠和树木数量会对木鸽的巢址选择产生负面影响,并表明鸽子选择了最城市化的地方。此外,与鸟类掠食者(连帽乌鸦和欧亚喜鹊)的巢穴的距离是对城市林鸽选择巢穴产生负面影响的重要因素。讨论了在有车辆通行和人为干扰的地方选择筑巢地点作为躲避捕食者的一种方式。对城市栖息地林鸽筑巢地点的分析表明,从19种植物或分类群中,该物种主要选择椴树(Tilia cordata)(53.5%)。关于城市栖息地之间的巢穴特征,我们没有发现本质差异。
