Article
Jennifer R. Smetzer, Auteur ; David I. King, Auteur ; Philip D. Taylor, AuteurEach year, millions of songbirds concentrate in coastal areas during fall migration. The choices birds make at the coast about stopover habitat use and migratory route can influence both the success of their migratory journey and fitness in subs[...]![]()

Lisa V. Kennedy, Auteur ; Yolanda E. Morbey, Auteur ; Stuart A. Mackenzie, Auteur ; Philip D. Taylor, Auteur ; Christopher G. Guglielmo, AuteurQuantitative magnetic resonance (QMR) is a non-invasive technology used to measure body composition. It has great potential to advance the study of energetics and fuel use of migratory birds. However, there is concern that exposure to a strong m[...]![]()

C. Myles Falconer, Auteur ; Greg W. Mitchell, Auteur ; Philip D. Taylor, Auteur ; Douglas C. Tozer, AuteurABSTRACT Bank Swallows (Riparia riparia) congregate in large nocturnal roosts during the non-breeding season. Scant evidence suggests that Bank Swallows may also congregate regularly in nocturnal roosts during the breeding period. To help clarif[...]![]()

Robert A. Ronconi, Auteur ; Jessica R. Stephens, Auteur ; Zoe J. Crysler, Auteur ; Ingrid L. Pollet, Auteur ; Danielle T. Fife, Auteur ; Andrew G. Horn, Auteur ; Philip D. Taylor, AuteurSable Island is the most isolated seabird colony site in eastern Canada and the United States, offering a unique opportunity to study the population dynamics of terns and gulls in an area removed from human activities. Sable Island likely suppor[...]![]()

Bradley K. Woodworth, Auteur ; Greg W. Mitchell, Auteur ; D. Ryan Norris, Auteur ; Charles M. Francis, Auteur ; Philip D. Taylor, AuteurDeparture decisions of songbirds at ecological barriers they encounter en route can strongly influence time, energy and survival costs of migration. To date, most field studies of departure decisions and their correlates have used indirect metho[...]![]()

Ingrid L. Pollet, Auteur ; Robert A. Ronconi, Auteur ; Ian D. Jonsen, Auteur ; Marty L. Leonard, Auteur ; Philip D. Taylor, Auteur ; Dave Shutler, AuteurKnowledge of foraging movements during the breeding season is key to understanding energetic stresses faced by seabirds. Using archival light loggers (geolocators), a Bayesian state-space model, and stable isotope analysis, we compared foraging [...]![]()
Article
Bradley K. Woodworth, Auteur ; Charles M. Francis, Auteur ; Philip D. Taylor, AuteurInland dispersal of migrating land birds away from the coast, often opposite to the direction of migration, occurs frequently. Many of these movements may involve migrants seeking improved stopover conditions farther inland, but direct study of [...]![]()

Ingrid L. Pollet, Auteur ; April Hedd, Auteur ; Philip D. Taylor, Auteur ; William A. Montevecchi, Auteur ; Dave Shutler, AuteurAccumulating evidence suggests that Atlantic populations of Leach's Storm-Petrels (Oceanodroma leucorhoa) are experiencing significant declines. To better understand possible causes of these declines, we used geolocators to document movements of[...]![]()
Article
Michael L. Peckford, Auteur ; Philip D. Taylor, AuteurStudies comparing numbers of nocturnal migrants in flight with numbers of migrants at stopover sites have produced equivocal results. In 2003, we compared numbers of nocturnal migrants detected by radar to numbers of passerines observed at the A[...]
