The taxonomic affinity of the near-flightless Zapata Rail Cyanolimnas cerverai, a critically endangered and highly localized species endemic to Cuba, has long been debated. Morphological analyses have suggested that this species, which constitut[...]

The Red Kite has come to the forefront of general consciousness in recent decades. A major contributing factor has been repeated collisions of these raptors with wind turbines and the important role they play in the approval process for new turb[...]

Animals use diverse signal types (e.g. visual, auditory) to honestly advertise their genotypic and/or phenotypic quality to prospective mates or rivals. Behavioural displays and other dynamically updateable signals (e.g. songs, vibrations) can r[...]

The critically endangered Spoon-billed Sandpiper Calidris pygmaea breeds in Russia and winters between Bangladesh and China. World population estimates during 2014–2019 suggested a decline at a mean rate of 8% per year. Several surveys of local [...]

Photo-identification has gained attention as a method that allows individual recognition in several animal taxa, avoiding the risks associated with artificial marking. However, no studies have determined the existence of individually distinct ex[...]

Experimental studies have shown that individual wildfowl can shorten or skip moulting if the time between breeding and wintering is short; however, studies in wild birds are scarce. We tracked nine Common Shelducks Tadorna tadorna during the bre[...]

The length of the ornamental tail rectrices has been shown to be an important condition-dependent sexually selected trait in various bird species. Similarly, the shape and depth of the tail fork may represent a costly sexual signal that enhances[...]

Mark-recapture studies enable us to estimate population parameters such as survival, if marks do not impact survival and if marks are not lost. Mark loss can result from external wear and damage, but also behavioural factors may be important and[...]

Avian brood parasite hosts can use distinct egg traits to recognize a parasitic egg. Previous studies suggested an important role of eggshell ultraviolet (UV) reflectance in rejection. According to the egg detectability hypothesis, natural selec[...]

Using EURING data and geolocation, we describe migration routes and the nonbreeding range of Red-rumped Swallows breeding in the Western Palearctic. One bird ringed in southern Spain and recovered in southern Morocco indicates southwestern migra[...]

The Short-eared Owl (Asio flammeus) inhabits open grasslands and belongs to the ground-breeding birds that have experienced the most severe declines during recent decades. Here, we studied nest and fledgling survival of the owl species in relati[...]

We investigated potential information content in red carotenoid-based undertail coverts of 28 pairs of breeding Great Spotted Woodpeckers by comparing plumage reflectance to measures of body condition and reproductive success. Plumage coloration[...]

Birds use songs to communicate with mates and rivals and thus these signals have important social and fitness consequences. Understanding the pattern of vocalization and repertoire use of a species is valuable for population monitoring and speci[...]

Currently little is known about intra-African bird migrants. Migratory connectivity between populations may be affected by past climatic fluctuations as well as contemporary threats that affect habitat connectivity resulting in genetic different[...]

Several hypotheses propose an adaptive function of non-breeding nests (female attraction, decoys for nest predators and safe places for roosting). Alternatively, non-breeding nests may be structures abandoned before completion. Grass Wrens Cisto[...]

We tested whether microhabitat use affects dispersal and population differentiation in forest birds of the southwestern Palaearctic, a link previously suggested in Neotropical birds. To approach this, the number of subspecies within 32 species w[...]

The Northern German Black Grouse metapopulation has been affected since decades by a sharply decline that has ultimately led to a reduced genetic variability. Gastrointestinal parasitoses are common among Black Grouse, but it is not clear if the[...]
