Abstract:
The diet of tawny owl Strix aluco was analysed in 10 sites within boundaries of Garwolin Forest District (1,428.9 km2) in Mazowieckie Voivodship (central and eastern Poland) in the years 2015-2022. We collected 1,731 vertebrates, among them 1,519 mammals (87.8%), 60 birds (3.5%), 1 reptile (0.06%) and 151 amphibians (8.7%). Mammals were represented by 20 species: 5 soricomorphs, 1 hedgehog, 3 bats, 11 rodents. Dominating prey-species were bank vole Clethrionomys glareolus (18.4% of vertebrates), the yellow-necked mouse Apodemus flavicollis (13.2%) and the common vole Microtus arvalis (6.1%), which occurred at all sites. Most interesting species were water shrew Neomys fodiens, bicoloured white-toothed shrew Crocidura leucodon, greater mouse-eared bat Myotis myotis and common dormouse Muscardinus avellanarius.
