Richard K. Broughton, Auteur ; Marta Maziarz, Auteur ; Shelley A. Hinsley, AuteurAnalysis of the impacts of social structure on the behaviour and life history of birds is a rapidly developing area of ornithology. Such studies commonly focus on the Paridae (tits and chickadees) as a model group, but detailed assessment of the[...]

Richard K. Broughton, Auteur ; John C. Day, Auteur ; Jane E. Carpenter, Auteur ; Andrew G. Gosler, Auteur ; Shelley A. Hinsley, AuteurWe assessed whether the sex ratio of nestling Marsh Tits (Poecile palustris) varied with habitat fragmentation by sampling broods from two British woodland areas with contrasting patch size, and comparing the data with published results from an [...]

Richard K. Broughton, Auteur ; Peter J. Alker, Auteur ; Paul E. Bellamy, Auteur ; Stuart Britton, Auteur ; Daria Dadam, Auteur ; John C. Day, Auteur ; Michael Miles, Auteur ; Shelley A. Hinsley, AuteurBiometrics are commonly used to compare bird species. For Marsh Tits and Willow Tits in Britain there are few biometric data from birds of known age and sex, despite their value for population analyses in estimating the proportion of males and f[...]

Richard K. Broughton, Auteur ; Paul E. Bellamy, Auteur ; Ross A. Hill, Auteur ; Shelley A. Hinsley, AuteurCapsule Radio-tracking and remote sensing showed Marsh Tits selected for English Oak Quercus robur trees within large winter home-ranges.

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[...]

Shelley A. Hinsley, Auteur ; Paul E. Bellamy, Auteur ; Peter Rothery, Auteur ; Paula Redman, Auteur ; Lindsay Furness, Auteur ; John R. Speakman, AuteurCapsule Female feeding rate behaviour was highly variable between individuals but no effect of the doubly labelled water (DLW) procedure on female visit rate was detected, whereas visit rates by males, which were neither trapped or manipulated, [...]
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[...]
Article
Peter N. Ferns, Auteur ; Shelley A. Hinsley, AuteurCapsule The blue colour of the coverts and crowns of Blue Tits Cyanistes caeruleus and Great Tits Parus major is influenced by sex, age and environmental factors. Aims To quantify the blueness of two species of tits breeding in different habitat[...]

Broughton, AuteurDans Bird Study (56 2009)Capsule Use of Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) data identified suitable Willow Warbler habitat based on mean vegetation height. This habitat model provided maps of distribution and occupation of suitable habitat. Aims To identify habitat ass[...]

Carotenoid plumage hue and chroma signal different aspects of individual and habitat quality in tits
Peter N. Ferns, Auteur ; Shelley A. Hinsley, AuteurWe hypothesized that Blue Tits Cyanistes caeruleus and Great Tits Parus major from low quality habitat (small woods) would have less yellow ventral plumage than those from high quality habitat (large woods) because they moult faster and/or their[...]
Article
Richard K. Broughton, Auteur ; Shelley A. Hinsley, AuteurThe Marsh Tit Poecile palustris is one of several British woodland birds to have suffered a serious population decline in recent decades. Its abundance has fallen by almost three-quarters since the 1960s while its range has contracted by a fifth[...]

Gosler, AuteurDans Ibis (149 NOV 2007)The Marsh Tit Poecile palustris is a small, hole-nesting woodland passerine whose national population in the UK has declined by more than 50% in the last 25 years. To investigate possible causes for the species long-term decline, we examined hab[...]

Richard K. Broughton, Auteur ; Shelley A. Hinsley, Auteur ; Paul E. Bellamy, Auteur ; Ross A. Hill, Auteur ; Peter Rothery, AuteurWe used individual colour-marking and territory mapping to quantify the spatial extent of 32 Marsh Tit Poecile palustris territories in Monks Wood, eastern England, during spring of the years 2002-04. A mean territory size of 4.1 ha was identifi[...]
