Abstract
On the basis of long-term works in Selenga River delta the features of distribution of a waterfowl throughout nesting habitats during the 11-year climatic cycle of 1973–1982 are characterized. It is proved, that to each water level there corresponds the spatial structure of birds formed by well pronounced habitat selectivity.
