The breeding bird fauna of the Eggeralm

A total of 20 species were observed at the Eggeralm. Compared to the other alpine pastures studied in 2004 and 2005, many species are missing. However, the small number of species is also due to the small size of the study area and the small number of visits. However, the presence of Amsel, Bunt- and Dreitohenspecht, Kleiber, Cuckuck, mistletoe, monkgrass mosquito, black woodpecker and singing thrush are to be expected (in the immediate vicinity). The cuckoo was found only on the Scheucheggalm and is rare in the area. The Steinschmätzer also occurs in the Gesäuse only in very low densities and finds no suitable conditions on the Eggeralm. The tower falcon is to be expected as a food guest. The absence of the tree pie is surprising, as the loose trees and semi-open forest areas should provide ideal habitats. However, it is rare in the Gesäuse and could only be observed north of the Enns in the area of the Hochscheibenalm. There are no suitable conditions for the mountain pieper due to the absence of larger open areas. Lentner (2001) describes him as the dominant type of alpine pastures above 1 500 m.本次研究在埃格阿尔姆（Eggeralm）共记录到20个物种。相较于2004年与2005年调研的其他阿尔卑斯牧场，本区域缺失了大量物种。不过，物种丰度偏低也与研究区域面积狭小、调研频次较低直接相关。 不过，乌鸫（Amsel）、斑啄木鸟与三趾啄木鸟（Dreitohenspecht）、旋木雀（Kleiber）、杜鹃（Cuckuck）、槲寄生（mistletoe）、款冬蚊（monkgrass mosquito）、黑啄木鸟（black woodpecker）以及歌鸫（singing thrush）在周边区域的存在均属合理预期。杜鹃仅在绍伊埃格阿尔姆（Scheucheggalm）被记录到，在本区域较为罕见。斑䳭（Steinschmätzer）在格萨乌斯（Gesäuse）的种群密度极低，且在埃格阿尔姆无适宜栖息生境。游隼（tower falcon）作为觅食访客也可被合理预期出现。 树鹊的缺失令人意外，因为区域内的零散林木与半开放林带本应提供理想的栖息生境。不过，树鹊在格萨乌斯本就较为罕见，仅在恩斯河（Enns）以北的霍希沙伊本阿尔姆（Hochscheibenalm）区域有过观测记录。 由于缺乏大型开阔生境，山鹨（mountain pieper）无适宜生存条件。伦特纳（2001）在其研究中将其描述为海拔1500米以上阿尔卑斯牧场的优势物种类群。
