Occurrence of the Osprey (Pandion haliaetus) in Argentina and Uruguay

Abstract

We present unpublished Osprey records from Argentina and Uruguay, which are combined with previous data for analyses and discussion. The total number of well documented records is 38 for Buenos Aires city and twelve provinces of Argentina, and 15 for 6 Uruguayans departments. Ospreys seem to migrate regularly to some localities in NE Argentina. Except for June and August Ospreys were recorded year round, but mainly as summer visitors. Rivers are the main hydric systems used by this raptor in the area. Some aspects of Osprey migration to both countries are discussed.
