Abstract
This article describes the peculiarities of the structural organization of zooplankton influenced by the waste products of the black-headed gull (Larus ridibundus Linnaeus) nesting colony in the protected overgrown shallow in Rybinsk Reservoir. The bird colony facilitates a modification of the zooplankton structure that is similar to the modifications of communities at early stages of eutrophication: the number of invertebrate species increases thanks to rotifers and cladocerans and the number and biomass of community increases due to cladocerans and copepods.
