This work focuses on the behavior of birds approaching aircraft at the Murongo national airport in Bunia. To arrive at the results of this research, the Point Abundance Index (PIA) method was used. Field observations were carried out every Tuesday and Thursday from 6: 30 a.m. to 11 a.m. and from 4: 30 p.m. to 6 p.m. After these observations, 11 species of birds were identified (Leptoptilos crumenifer, Ciconia episcopus, Prinia somalica, Macronyx croceus, Corvus albus, Aquila rapax, Turdus pelios, Hirundo nigrita, Ploceus cucullatus, Lanius cristatus and Pycnonotus barbatus) and having manifested 10 behaviors, including: resting, feeding, social, territorial and aggression, before takeoff or landing versus moving, fleeing, nesting, leisure and habituation during landing or takeoff. Corvus albus and Aquila rapax offer high percentages of birds observed (respectively, 45.1% and 17.1%), i.e. 93 individuals (Corvus albus) against 36 (Aquila rapax) out of a total of 206 having demonstrated behavior towards the movement of aircraft. The Aquila rapax species has experienced collisions with aircraft 12 times than the other two (respectively Corvus albus and Hirundu nigrita: once). The behavior of these 3 species (Aquila rapax, Hirundu nigrita and Corvus albus) in the face of aircraft maneuvers during takeoff and/or landing of aircraft led to their death. This work contributes to understanding the behavior of avifauna when aircraft approach Bunia airport.
