Anti-Predator Behavior in Birds: Reactions to Raptor Calls
Anti-predator behavior in Birds: Reactions to Raptor Calls Robin Elahi Department of Biology, Northeastern University _____________________________________________________________________________________ ABSTRACT Birds display a number of defense mechanisms against their predators, including camouflage, mobbing, fleeing, and aggregational behavior. I studied the responses of 32 bird species to songbird and raptor calls to see if birds displayed anti-predator behavior in response to raptor calls in comparison with songbird calls. One focus of my study was avian defensive strategies, namely flocking and concealment, so observations took into consideration different conditions: whether the bird was solitary or in a group, and whether it was exposed or hidden in vegetation. A previous study showed that crows could distinguish between raptor calls of their predators and non-predators, so I examined if birds specifically recognized resident raptors, or if they had a general response to resident and non-resident raptor calls. I also attempted to correlate bird size with reaction, specifically to see if smaller birds flew away more often than larger birds due to a greater perceived threat. For each bird or group of birds. I played a songbird call, followed by a raptor call, and timed the raptor call to see how long the bird stayed till it flew away. Birds flew away 27% of the time in response to raptor calls, and only 3% of the time to songbird calls (X² = 16.11, df = 1, n = 26). Birds did not distinguish among resident and non-resident raptor calls, and had nearly equal flight frequencies (X² = 0.48, df =3, n=40). Trends showed that solitary and exposed birds tended to fly more often than birds in groups and hidden birds. -

Disaggregation of Bird Families Listed on Cms Appendix Ii
Convention on the Conservation of Migratory Species of Wild Animals 2nd Meeting of the Sessional Committee of the CMS Scientific Council (ScC-SC2) Bonn, Germany, 10 – 14 July 2017 UNEP/CMS/ScC-SC2/Inf.3 DISAGGREGATION OF BIRD FAMILIES LISTED ON CMS APPENDIX II (Prepared by the Appointed Councillors for Birds) Summary: The first meeting of the Sessional Committee of the Scientific Council identified the adoption of a new standard reference for avian taxonomy as an opportunity to disaggregate the higher-level taxa listed on Appendix II and to identify those that are considered to be migratory species and that have an unfavourable conservation status. The current paper presents an initial analysis of the higher-level disaggregation using the Handbook of the Birds of the World/BirdLife International Illustrated Checklist of the Birds of the World Volumes 1 and 2 taxonomy, and identifies the challenges in completing the analysis to identify all of the migratory species and the corresponding Range States. The document has been prepared by the COP Appointed Scientific Councilors for Birds. This is a supplementary paper to COP document UNEP/CMS/COP12/Doc.25.3 on Taxonomy and Nomenclature UNEP/CMS/ScC-Sc2/Inf.3 DISAGGREGATION OF BIRD FAMILIES LISTED ON CMS APPENDIX II 1. Through Resolution 11.19, the Conference of Parties adopted as the standard reference for bird taxonomy and nomenclature for Non-Passerine species the Handbook of the Birds of the World/BirdLife International Illustrated Checklist of the Birds of the World, Volume 1: Non-Passerines, by Josep del Hoyo and Nigel J.

Yet, it was still too early to experience the real explosion of bird song, which usually happens after dawn. Then, after 05:30 AM, the chorus started when a vocal Great Kiskadee broke the morning silence, followed by the scratchy notes of two Hoffmann´s Woodpeckers, a nesting pair of Inca Doves, the ascending and monotonous song of the Yellow-bellied Elaenia, and the cacophony of an (apparently!) engaged pair of Rufous-naped Wrens. This was indeed a warm welcome to magical Costa Rica! To complement the first morning of birding, two boreal migrants, Baltimore Orioles and a Tennessee Warbler, joined the bird feast just outside the hotel area. Broad-billed Motmot . Photo: D. Ascanio © Victor Emanuel Nature Tours 2 The Best of Costa Rica, 2019 After breakfast, we drove towards the volcanic ring of Costa Rica. Circling the slope of Poas volcano, we eventually reached the inspiring Bosque de Paz. With its hummingbird feeders and trails transecting a beautiful moss-covered forest, this lodge offered us the opportunity to see one of Costa Rica´s most difficult-to-see Grallaridae, the Scaled Antpitta.
