  • Effects of Nestling Diet on Growth and Adult Size of Zebra Finches (Poephila Guttata )
    THE AUK A QUARTERLY JOURNAL OF ORNITHOLOGY VOL. 104 APRIL 1987 NO. 2 EFFECTS OF NESTLING DIET ON GROWTH AND ADULT SIZE OF ZEBRA FINCHES (POEPHILA GUTTATA ) PETER T. BOAG Departmentof Biology,Queen's University, Kingston, Ontario K7L 3N6, Canada Al•STRACT.--Manipulationof the diet of Zebra Finch (Poephilaguttata) nestlings in the laboratoryshowed that a low-quality diet reducedgrowth ratesof nine externalmorpholog- ical characters,while a high-quality diet increasedgrowth rates.The growth of plumage characterswas least affectedby diet, while growth ratesof tarsusand masswere most af- fected. The treatments also produced differencesin the adult size of experimental birds, differencesnot evident in either their parentsor their own offspring.Diet quality had the strongestimpact on adult massand tarsuslength, while plumage and beak measurements were less affected. Analysis using principal componentsand characterratios showed that the shapeof experimentalbirds was affectedby the experimentaldiets, but to a minor extent comparedwith changesin overall size. Significantshape changes involved ratiosbetween fast- and slow-growingcharacters. The ratios of charactersthat grow at similar, slow rates (e.g. beak shape) were not affected by the diets.

  • Antipredator Behavior and Breeding Success in Greater Golden-Plover and Eurasian Dotterel’
    The Condor89:40-47 0 The Cooper Ornithological Society 1987 ANTIPREDATOR BEHAVIOR AND BREEDING SUCCESS IN GREATER GOLDEN-PLOVER AND EURASIAN DOTTEREL’ INGVAR BYRKTEDAL Museum of Zoology, Universityof Bergen,N-5000 Bergen,Norway Abstract. Breeding successand antipredator behavior of Greater Golden-Plovers (Plu- vialis apricaria) and Eurasian Dotterels (Charadrius morinellus) were studied in Norway over seven summers in an area 1,200 to 1,350 m altitude. Behavior was recorded in a standardizedmanner on nest inspections,on approachingparent birds with chicks, and by observing reactions to overflying predators on scheduled observation bouts. Red foxes (Vulpes v&es), Common Ravens (Corvuscorax), and Mew Gulls (Larus canus) were the most important nest and chick predators in the area. Nest predation was calculated from exposure time. During incubation both species either sneaked away from the nest when approached by a human (golden-plovers at a much larger distance than dotterels) or sat tightly and flushed at a short distancegiving distraction display. “Sneaking” had a positive effect on nest survival, and ground distraction displays had a better effect on nest survival than flight distraction displays. After hatching, golden-plover parents exposed themselves to an approachinghuman at several hundred meters distance by loud alarm calls and by encounteringthe intruder, whereasdotterels kept unobtrusive until approachedto about 40 m, and upon further approach finally gave distraction displays on the ground. Avian pred- ators at a longer distance (~300 m) from nest or chicks at most arousedalertness, while at close quarters (~50 m) they induced golden-plovers to squat flat, while dotterels exposed themselves by “tail-flagging.” Nest loss was greater for golden-plovers (78%) than for dot- terels (47%), while chick loss was greater for dotterels (65%) than for golden-plovers(28%).

    Die Vogelwarte 39, 1997: 131-140 Clues to the Migratory Routes of the Eastern Fly way of the Western Palearctics - Ringing Recoveries at Eilat, Israel [I - Ciconiiformes, Charadriiformes, Coraciiformes, and Passeriformes.] By Reuven Yosef Abstract: R euven , Y. (1997): Clues to the Migratory Routes of the Eastern Fly way of the Western Palearctics - Ringing Recoveries at Eilat, Israel [I - Ciconiiformes, Charadriiformes, Coraciiformes, and Passeriformes.] Vogelwarte 39: 131-140. Eilat, located in front of (in autumn) or behind (in spring) the Sinai and Sahara desert crossings, is central to the biannual migration of Eurasian birds. A total of 113 birds of 21 species ringed in Europe were recovered either at Eilat (44 birds of 12 species) or were ringed in Eilat and recovered outside Israel (69 birds of 16 spe­ cies). The most common species recovered are Lesser Whitethroat {Sylvia curruca), White Stork (Ciconia cico- nia), Chiffchaff (Phylloscopus collybita), Swallow {Hirundo rustica) Blackcap (S. atricapilla), Pied Wagtail {Motacilla alba) and Sand Martin {Riparia riparia). The importance of Eilat as a central point on the migratory route is substantiated by the fact that although the number of ringing stations in eastern Europe and Africa are limited, and non-existent in Asia, several tens of birds have been recovered in the past four decades. This also stresses the importance of taking a continental perspective to future conservation efforts. Key words: ringing, recoveries, Eilat, Eurasia, Africa. Address: International Bird Center, P. O. Box 774, Eilat 88106, Israel. 1. Introduction Israel is the only land brigde between three continents and a junction for birds migrating south be­ tween Europe and Asia to Africa in autumn and north to their breeding grounds in spring (Yom-Tov 1988).

  • Snowy Sheathbills and What You Really Need to Know
    Snowy Sheathbills and what you really need to know Reprinted from British Antarctic Survey Bulletin, No. 2, December 1963, p. 53-71 THE SHEATHBILL, Chionis alba (Gmelin), AT SIGNY ISLAND, SOUTH ORKNEY ISLANDS By N. V. Jones ABSTRACT. A study of the sheathbill, Chionis alba (Gmelin), was carried out at Signy Island, South Orkney Islands, between April 1961 and April 1962. The general characteristics of the species and the annual population cycle have been investigated. Breeding birds return to the island early in October, form pairs early in November, and establish territories later in November. There is a high level of fidelity to a previous year's mate and considerable nest-site tenacity. Nests are concentrated around penguin (Pygoscelis adetiae and P. antarctica) colonies, the closer association being with the latter species. Both sexes participate in nest construction, incubation and the care of the chick. Egg-laying begins in early December, but full incubation starts only when clutches, which number from one to four, are complete. The normal incubation period is 30 days. Chicks are fed largely on "krill", obtained by disturbing penguins which are feeding their own young, and the sheathbill's life cycle is suitably coincident with that of the penguins. Chicks fledge when 50 to 60 days old and at this stage they become shore feeders. Chicks and adults disperse from the island in about mid-May, and there is evidence of a rather loose northward migration in winter. No definite predators are known. A number of parasites have been recorded. THIS paper describes work done on the sheathbill at Signy Island (lat.

Both Philornis downsi natural fluctuations in environmental conditions and habitat management measures can temporarily cause Darwin's finches adverse environmental effects. In this study, we investigated the interaction between the invasive parasitic fly Invasive species Philornis downsi, control of invasive plants and precipitation on the breeding success of Darwin's finches. Parasitism Introduced plant species have invaded a unique forest on the Galapagos island of Santa Cruz, which is a key Arthropod biomass habitat for Darwin's finches. The Galapagos National Park Directorate applies manual control and herbicides to Weed management combat this invasion. We hypothesized that these measures led to a reduction in the arthropod food supply during chick rearing, which in turn caused mortality in chicks that were already weakened by parasitism. We compared food availability in three study sites of varying degrees of weed management. To assess the interaction of parasitism and weed management, we experimentally reduced P.
