On the basis of long-term (2001–2017) and extensive data (> 1700 breeding attempts), we assess factors influencing breeding parameters in Montagu’s Harrier (Circus pygargus), a medium-sized ground-nesting semi-colonial raptor breeding in cereal [...]

Avian haemosporidians are vector-transmitted blood parasites that are distributed worldwide, abundant in many bird families and well studied across Europe and North America. Since avian haemosporidians have been poorly examined in the Palearctic[...]

Several Darwin’s finch populations on the Galapagos Islands are declining and/or locally extinct. Acoustic surveys provide useful information about population size, but do not provide information on the age or morphology of birds. This study use[...]

Birds are the best-studied taxa with respect to our knowledge about predation risk assessment. In the past 4 years, global progress in this field has been made due to a remarkable number of synthetic reviews, meta-analyses, and comparative analy[...]

In sex-role-reversed species, females are typically the more competitive sex, defending territories and access to mates, while males take care of the young, often without any help from the female. In males of species with traditional sex roles, [...]

Although the biogeographic history of thrushes (Turdidae) has been extensively studied, a concise discussion of this topic is still lacking. Therefore, in this study we aimed to investigate: (1) the evolutionary origin of the migratory behaviour[...]

Reproductive success in monogamous species is generally affected by both behavioural and hormonal fine-tuning between pair partners. Vigilance, defence and brooding of offspring are among the main parental investments, and often the sexes adopt [...]

Nest site selection in birds is expected to represent a trade-off between a suitable microclimate for thermoregulation and visual protection against predators or social disturbance. In this study, I examine the influence of different characteris[...]

Migratory birds need energy-rich fuel which is primarily gained through fattening. However, it is also hypothesised that birds store excess lean mass as an additional energy reserve during migration. Until now, changes in the fat of live birds c[...]

Sex ratio is a fundamental concept in evolutional biology, and theory predicts that parents should invest in sons and daughters according to the fitness returns they expect from them. The fitness returns may depend on the timing of breeding and [...]

A large number of young birds are caught each year shortly after having left the nest and subsequently brought to bird care centres. These birds are temporarily hand-raised before release. To date, the effectiveness of this action has remained l[...]

When they detect a predator, many birds exhibit mobbing behaviour and produce mobbing calls that quickly draw other prey against the predator. This anti-predator strategy often involves several species and, therefore, implies heterospecific comm[...]
