    Having exchanged (русск. деепричастие прош. вр.: см. также предисловие) .
    their original forest habitats for open landscapes, the pioneer species proceeded to spread along two main routes. Some of the species have extended their ranges south from African tropical forests into open arid regions of South Africa .
    Species of undoubtedly African origin has, by expanding along two different routes – through Iceland and Greenland in the west and across the Bering Strait in the east, penetrated into the New World. .
    This ancestral species had adapted to living in savannas and steppes, but nevertheless succeeded in colonizing new areas in North Africa, Arabia and the Middle East .
    This colonization may have taken place (могла предположительно, иметь место) in the period when suitable habitats for the species became predominant in these regions .
    These mutual displays have never been observed to lead to copulation in this species .
    In all the cases discussed we are dealing with so-called allopatric forms whose breeding ranges are not contiguous, but rather situated well apart from each other .
    Many non-raptorial birds deal with large food items by beating them vigorously prior to swallowing .
