Abstract
Autumn migration routes of two Dutch female Montagu’s Harriers ( Circus pygargus ) were documented for the first time using satellite telemetry. Both migrated to their African wintering area—one via the Straits of Gibraltar through the Mediterranean and the other via Italy/Tunisia. The rate of travel was comparable to values reported for larger raptor species.
