Abstract
Information about nesting birds’ fauna of nature landmark of regional significance Area "Budanova Gora" is presented in this work. During 2011–2021 two cluster plots of protected area were explored: erosive outlier with surrounding steppe biotopes and gully-beam network of five ravines. We revealed dominating bird species and actualized information about rare bird species from Red Data Books of Saratov Region and Russia: Eagle Owl (Bubo bubo), Roller (Coracias garrulus), Turtle-dove (Streptopelia turtur). Changes in nesting avifauna were estimated for ten years research and in comparing with early published data. The second cluster plot is characterized by greatest variety of birds, because of sclerophilic species: Bee-Eater (Merops apiaster), Roller, Pied Wheatear (Oenanthe pleshanka), Hoopoe (Upupa epops).
