  • Wetland Birds in the Recent Fossil Record of Britain and Northwest Europe John R
    Wetland birds in the recent fossil record of Britain and northwest Europe John R. Stewart 18. Dalmatian Pelican Pelecanus crispus, Deep Bay, Mai Po, Hong Kong, February 1995. Geological evidence suggests that Dalmatian Pelicans bred in Britain, and in other western European countries (including The Netherlands and Denmark), prior to and during the Iron Age. Ray Tipper. ABSTRACT Wetland habitats in Britain and other parts of western Europe have been severely depleted during the latter part of the Holocene owing principally to drainage and land reclamation. Changes in the distribution of a number of wetland bird species can be gauged from archaeological and geological site records of larger birds, whose remains are generally better preserved. Key species are discussed here, including a heron Nycticorax fenensis and a crane Grus primigenia, two extinct species named on possibly uncertain fossil evidence. We can let our minds wander back to the misty realms of fifteen hundred years ago, to a wonderful Britain which was alive with bird song from coast to coast, which sheltered wolves, bears and boars in its dark woodlands, cranes in its marshes, bustards on its heaths and beavers by its streams, and we can visualize the great pink pelican sweeping on its huge pinions over the reedy waterways which then penetrated by secret paths into the very heart of what is now Somerset.

  • Impact of Human Activity on Foraging Flocks and Populations of the Alpine Chough Pyrrhocorax Graculus
    Avocetta N°19: 189-193 (1995) Impact of human activity on foraging flocks and populations of the alpine chough Pyrrhocorax graculus ANNE DELESTRADE Centre de Biologie des Ecosystèmes d'Altitude, Université de Pau, 64000 Pau, France. Present address: Institut d'écologie, CNRS URA 258, Université Pierre et Marie Curie, 7 qua i St Bernard, 75252 Paris, France. Abstract - The Alpine Chough Pyrrhocorax graculus is a social corvid which uses food provided by tourist activities in mountain regions (e.g. at ski stations, refuse dumps, picnic areas). In order to determine the impact ofthe human food supply on the Alpine Chough, foraging flock size and distribution were studied in a tourist region in the Northern French Alps between 1988 and 1992. Alpine Chough attendance at tourist sites was closely related to human activities. Activity rhytbrn was influenced by human presence on picnic area in summer. Relations to human activities held at a seasonal scale (such as opening of a ski station) but not at a daily time scale (such as weekend). Long term trends of Alpine Chough populations since intense tourist development at altitude are discussed with regard of flock size counts recorded at a same site before and after intense tourist development. Introduction a little studied species, and it is particularly uncertain whether Alpine Chough populations have increased Availability of food is a factor which influences the since the intense development of tourist activities in distribution and abundance of species at a range of mountains. spatial and temporal scales. Many bird species forage The aims of this study were (1) to determine whether in human related habitats (Murton and Wright 1968), the Alpine Chough adapted its foraging behaviour to and food supplied by man (e.g.

Photo credits: Society for the Protection of Prespa, unless stated otherwise. Introduction Visual identification of the Dalmatian pelican seems like a straightforward task, yet in sites used by both species (the Dalmatian pelican and the great white pelican) identification can be tricky, especially when the observer is located some distance away from the birds. Hardly any useful material has been published on the sequence of moults and plumages of the Dalmatian pelican, and this gap often creates confusion and uncertainty about the accuracy of data in regards to ageing of Dalmatian pelicans, as well as frequently undermining confidence in census numbers.
