    Aquatic Warbler, Sporovo Reserve (all photos taken on the 2015 tour by Mike Watson) BELARUS 13 – 21 May 2015 Northern Belarus Extension from 10 May LEADERS: MIKE WATSON and DIMA SHAMOVICH I was wondering how we could follow our successful first visit to Belarus in 2014... I need not have worried. New for 2015 on our expanded itinerary were: Hazel Grouse (both in the north and the south, including a fe- male on its nest); Western Capercaillie, Black Grouse and Ural and Tengmalm’s Owls on our Northern Belarus pre-tour extension, to the wonderful Krasny Bor reserve on the Russian border and we also enjoyed some great encounters with old favourites, including: point blank views of Corn Crakes; lekking Great Snipes on meadows by the Pripyat River; 46(!) Terek Sandpipers; hundreds of ‘marsh’ terns (White-winged, Black and Whiskered); Great Grey Owl (an even better close encounter than last time!); Eurasian Pygmy Owl; nine spe- cies of woodpecker including White-backed (three) and Eurasian Three-toed (five); Azure Tits at five different sites including our best views yet; Aquatic Warblers buzzing away in an ancient sedge fen (again our best views yet of this rapidly declining bird). With the benefit of the new pre-tour extension to the boreal zone of northern Belarus as well as some good fortune on the main tour we recorded a new high total of 184 bird spe- cies and other avian highlights included: Smew; Black Stork; Greater Spotted, Lesser Spotted and White-tailed Eagles; Northern Goshawk; Wood Sandpipers and Temminck’s Stints on passage in the south and breeding Whimbrels and Common Greenshanks on raised bogs in the north; Eurasian Nightjar; a profusion of song- 1 BirdQuest Tour Report: Belarus www.birdquest-tours.com WWII memorial at Sosnovy sters mostly only known to western birders as scarce drift migrants including Wrynecks, Red-backed Shrikes, Marsh, Icterine and River Warblers as well as gaudy Citrine Wagtails and Common Rosefinches and lovely old forests full of Wood Warblers and Red-breasted Flycatchers.

  • Does Experimentally Simulated Presence of a Common Cuckoo (Cuculus Canorus) Affect Egg Rejection and Breeding Success in the Red‑Backed Shrike (Lanius Collurio)?
    acta ethologica (2021) 24:87–94 https://doi.org/10.1007/s10211-021-00362-1 ORIGINAL PAPER Does experimentally simulated presence of a common cuckoo (Cuculus canorus) affect egg rejection and breeding success in the red‑backed shrike (Lanius collurio)? Piotr Tryjanowski1,2 · Artur Golawski3 · Mariusz Janowski1 · Tim H. Sparks1,4 Received: 23 September 2020 / Revised: 18 January 2021 / Accepted: 10 February 2021 / Published online: 8 March 2021 © The Author(s) 2021 Abstract Providing artifcial eggs is a commonly used technique to understand brood parasitism, mainly by the common cuckoo (Cuculus canorus). However, the presence of a cuckoo egg in the host nest would also require an earlier physical presence of the common cuckoo within the host territory. During our study of the red-backed shrike (Lanius collurio), we tested two experimental approaches: (1) providing an artifcial “cuckoo” egg in shrike nests and (2) additionally placing a stufed common cuckoo with a male call close to the shrike nest. We expected that the shrikes subject to the additional common cuckoo call stimuli would be more sensitive to brood parasitism and demonstrate a higher egg rejection rate. In the years 2017–2018, in two locations in Poland, a total of 130 red-backed shrike nests were divided into two categories: in 66 we added only an artifcial egg, and in the remaining 64 we added not only the egg, but also presented a stufed, calling common cuckoo. Shrikes reacted more strongly if the stufed common cuckoo was present. However, only 13 incidences of egg acceptance were noted, with no signifcant diferences between the locations, experimental treatments or their interaction.

The owls nested in an old (possible corvid) nest in a willow and raised two owlets. They probably did not hunt gulls, neither adults nor chicks. We suggest that, in this case, the Long-eared Owls benefitted from breeding within a gull colony because of the added security against predators that the gulls provided.

  • Ornithological Literature
    ORNITHOLOGICAL LITERATURE A NEW DICTIONARY OF BIRIJS. Edited by Sir A. Landsborough Thomson. Thomas Nelson & Sons Limited, London, and McGraw-Hill Book Company, New York, 1964: 7sh x 10% in., 928 pp., 17 col. pls., and 31 photos by various artists and photographers, numerous line drawings. $17.50. Reviewing an encyclopedia, which this work is in spite of its name, is quite a different matter from reviewing a book or paper concerning a single topic. In the former instance the reviewer can make no pretense of having read the entire work, but must base his appraisal on selected subjects in which he has special competence or about which he seeks information. Because of this, a review of an encyclopedia becomes highly personal and subjective. I have had this book on my desk for six months, using it almost daily as a reference, purposely delayin g a review until I felt I knew it well enough to appraise it from the viewpoint of my particular needs. The first introductory section of the book is a “List of Major Articles on General Sub- jects” arranged under broad headings, e.g., “form and function,” and further subdivided into more specific sections, e.g., “facies and integument.” This is of value to one wish- ing an introduction to, or a review of, a given field and is particularly handy for the instructor who may assign selected topics to supplement an ornithology textbook. The second section is “A List of Major Articles on Bird Groups” arranged by orders and families. A dual function is served in that the list is also a convenient summary of the classification adopted, which is basically that of Peters ’ “Check-list of Birds of the World.” A list of plates, a list of the contributors with their titles, academic degrees, and pro- fessional positions (a rather pretentious display to the American eye), and finally an editorial introduction, defining the aims and scope of the volume, conclude the pre- liminary material.

Le Phragmite aquatique Acrocephalus paludicola est le seul passériforme mondialement menacé nichant en Europe continentale. La localisation des sites de stationnement et quartiers d’hivernage en Afrique s’avère essentielle à la conservation de l’espèce mais est gênée par le manque de connaissances de cette espèce rare de la part des observateurs. L’auteur présente probablement les premières photos de l’espèce dans son habitat naturel en Afrique de l’Ouest et décrit les critères d’identification principaux, surtout par rapport au Phragmite des joncs A. schoenobaenus. Finalement, un appel est lancé aux observateurs pour envoyer toutes leurs données à l’Équipe de Conservation du Phragmite aquatique de BirdLife International. quatic Warbler Acrocephalus paludicola is the wintering site was found in Mali (Poluda et al.

  • Aloe Scientific Primer International Aloe Science Council
    The International Aloe Science Council Presents an Aloe Scientific Primer International Aloe Science Council Commonly Traded Aloe Species The plant Aloe spp. has long been utilized in a variety of ways throughout history, which has been well documented elsewhere and need not be recounted in detail here, particularly as the purpose of this document is to discuss current and commonly traded aloe species. Aloe, in its various species, can presently and in the recent past be found in use as a decorative element in homes and gardens, in the creation of pharmaceuticals, in wound care products such as burn ointment, sunburn protectant and similar applications, in cosmetics, and as a food, dietary supplements and other health and nutrition related items. Recently, various species of the plant have even been used to weave into clothing and in mattresses. Those species of Aloe commonly used in commerce today can be divided into three primary categories: those used primarily in the production of crude drugs, those used primarily for decorative purposes, and those used in health, nutritional and related products. For reference purposes, this paper will outline the primary species and their uses, but will focus on the species most widely used in commerce for health, nutritional, cosmetic and supplement products, such as aloe vera. Components of aloe vera currently used in commerce The Aloe plant, and in particular aloe vera, has three distinct raw material components that are processed and found in manufactured goods: leaf juice; inner leaf juice; and aloe latex. A great deal of confusion regarding the terminology of this botanical and its components has been identified, mostly because of a lack of clear definitions, marketing, and other factors.
