Abstract
Noise pollution caused by transport was compared with that of natural origin at five experimental plots in Central Russia and the Southern U ral Region by means of standard and modified methods. Bird songs were registered as an ecological factor. A priority increment of technogeno us factors was revealed for the territories around motor, aircraft, an d railroad sources. It was shown with reference to the chaffinch that bird songs are deformed under conditions of technogenous noise polluti on.
