Article
Richard K. Broughton, Auteur ; Peter J. Alker, AuteurConfident separation of Marsh Tits and Willow Tits remains a challenge in Britain due to the similar appearance of the local races of both species. Several criteria are available to assist the identification of birds in the hand, but none is com[...]

Article
Marta Maziarz, Auteur ; Richard K. Broughton, AuteurCapsule Great Tits breeding in natural cavities in a primeval forest occupied microhabitats containing larger trees, but small differences between ‘breeding’ and ‘non-breeding’ locations indicated the minor importance of microhabitat selection i[...]

Article
Marking birds with individually identifiable metal leg-rings (bands) is a common research tool, and the additional use of plastic colour rings has facilitated numerous studies of bird ecology, yet there is limited information for the impact of t[...]

Article
Richard K. Broughton, Auteur ; Ross A. Hill, Auteur ; Paul E. Bellamy, Auteur ; Shelley A. Hinsley, AuteurCapsule Choice of nest-site appeared flexible and the rate of breeding failure was low, but some birds did not reach the nesting stage. Aims To analyse nest-site selection and its effect on nest predation and establish the rate of breeding failu[...]

Article
Richard K. Broughton, Auteur ; Ross A. Hill, Auteur ; Paul E. Bellamy, Auteur ; Shelley A. Hinsley, AuteurCapsule Natal dispersal was rapid and distances were short. Winter ranging and breeding dispersal were limited. Few birds undertook large movements. Aims To investigate the natal and breeding dispersal of Marsh Tits, including the timing of disp[...]
