Abstract:
During spring and fall migrations, birds migrating during the night are attracted by city lights and often collide with Toronto high–rise buildings. Birds also crash into windows during the day as the reflections create an illusion of open sky. Toronto Wildlife Centre (TWC) works with the Fatal Light Awareness Program (FLAP) to assess and treat the birds that have been injured. In peak flight times 20 to100 birds can arrive at the centre daily. The arrival of so many birds can be a daunting task if one is unprepared. Discussion focuses on how to deal with these rehabilitation patients, the most common injuries, housing, and diet concerns.

Abstract:
Migratory birds spend several months in their breeding grounds in sympatry with local resident birds and relatively shorter periods of time at stopover sites. During migration, parasites may be transmitted between migratory and resident birds. However, to what extent they share these parasites remains unclear. In this study, we compared the assemblages of haemosporidian parasites in migratory, resident, and passing birds, as well as the correlations between parasite assemblages and host phylogeny. Compared with passing birds, migratory birds were more likely to share parasites with resident birds. Shared lineages showed significantly higher prevalence rates than other lineages, indicating that common parasites are more likely to spill over from the current host to other birds. For shared lineages, the prevalence was significantly higher in resident birds than in migratory birds, suggesting that migratory birds pick up parasites at their breeding ground. Among the shared lineages, almost two-thirds presented no phylogenetic signal in their prevalence, indicating that parasite transmission among host species is weakly or not correlated with host phylogeny. Moreover, similarities between parasite assemblages are not correlated with either migration status or the phylogeny of hosts. Our results show that the prevalence, rather than host phylogeny, plays a central role in parasite transmission between migratory and resident birds in breeding grounds.

Abstract:
Avian migration, which involves billions of birds flying vast distances, is known to influence all aspects of avian life. Here we investigate how birds fit moult into an annual cycle determined by the need to migrate. Large variation exists in moulting patterns in relation to migration: for instance, moult can occur after breeding in the summer or after arrival in the wintering quarters. Here we use an optimal annual routine model to investigate why this variation exists. The modelled bird's decisions depend on the time of year, its energy reserves, breeding status, experience, flight feather quality and location. Our results suggest that the temporal and spatial variations in food are an important influence on a migratory bird's annual cycle. Summer moult occurs when food has a high peak on the breeding site in the summer, but it is less seasonal elsewhere. Winter moult occurs if there is a short period of high food availability in summer and a strong winter peak at different locations (i.e. the food is very seasonal but in opposite phase on these areas). This finding might explain why only long-distance migrants have a winter moult.

Abstract:
Climate change and habitat loss have influenced many species of organisms globally. Migratory birds are one of the most responsive animals towards climate change and habitat disruption, many species of migratory birds have a rapid decline in population in recent years because of these two factors. The aim of this article is to conclude information among the data available to achieve a better understanding of the challenges faced by migratory birds under the situation of climate change and suggest ways of preserving these species of migratory birds. This paper is mainly focused on the effects on migratory birds, especially from a perspective of a decline in population, caused by climate change and habitat loss caused by both natural and human factors. Causes such as frequent forest fires and early, warm springs are discussed in this paper. The effect on migratory birds by warm springs is causing a mismatch between food availability and breeding peak, causing inefficient breeding in many species of migratory birds, while the habitat loss caused by increasing forest fires is causing a decline in the population of migratory birds by not only decreasing their efficiency in breeding but also forced them to migrate to a less optimum habitat for reproduction.

Abstract:
Land use change from wildlands to urban and productive environments can dramatically transform ecosystem structure and processes. Despite their structural and functional differences from wildlands, human-modified environments offer unique habitat elements for wildlife. In this study, we examined how migratory birds use urban, productive, and wildland environments of a highly anthropized region of Western Mexico known as “El Bajío”. We used Generalized Linear Models to compare species richness, abundance, and the functional traits of migratory bird assemblages among these three environments. Results revealed differences in species richness, composition, and the functional traits of migratory birds among environments. Regardless of wildlands showing medium to high levels of human disturbance, they presented the highest species richness and abundance of migratory birds, with urban environments presenting the lowest values. Insectivorous and granivorous birds were dominant in the migratory bird assemblages of the three environments. The migratory bird assemblages of productive environments had more grassland granivorous birds. In contrast, insectivorous birds with dense habitat preferences and short culmen lengths dominated the urban bird assemblage. Migratory bird assemblages in productive and urban environments showed similar species richness and abundance of insectivorous birds, but they differ in their composition. Our results reveal that urban trees allowed cities to function as simplified forests, showing that the urban environment has the untapped potential to support complex assemblages of migratory birds. To promote migratory birds in human-modified landscapes, we must maintain complex vegetation areas that allow birds with diverse functional traits to overwinter in urban and productive environments.

Abstract:
For migrant birds, the non-breeding season can greatly influence survival and future reproductive success. Knowledge of annual and overwinter survival, the degree of site fidelity and habitat use in the non-breeding season, migration ecology, routes and stopovers, and whether these differ with age or sex is fundamental to understanding population dynamics, vulnerability to anthropogenic habitat degradation, and consequently for understanding the severe widespread declines of migrant bird species. The degree to which a migrant is a winter specialist or generalist is likely to be central to understanding population dynamics. I studied survival rates and the wintering and migration ecology of a declining Palearctic migrant, the whinchat Saxicola rubetra, wintering in West Africa, to establish how the non-breeding season may influence migrant population dynamics. Whinchats were extremely site faithful to both within and between years, holding distinct winter territories and returning to those territories in subsequent winters, despite the opportunity to relocate. Overwinter survival was very high and annual survival was comparable to or higher than that reported on the breeding grounds. Because our power to detect resident and dispersing birds was high, survival rates likely estimated true survival well. Habitat characteristics varied widely across territories and territories were smaller if more perching shrubs and maize were present. Most individuals showed a tolerance or even preference for human modified habitats. Some individuals may have multiple wintering sites. There was no evidence of dominance-based habitat occupancy or any differences in winter ecology, site fidelity, survival and most aspects of migratory behaviour between age and sex classes. Migratory connectivity occurred only on a large-scale and individual migratory behaviour was also varied. Fundamentally, the results suggest a generalist strategy in the non-breeding season within their wintering habitat of open savannah, most likely as an adaption to stochastic site selection within the wintering range for juveniles undertaking their first migration plus changing and unpredictable conditions both within and between years. Consequently, wintering conditions may not significantly limit whinchat populations and mortality is probably highest during active migration. Notably, non-specialist migrants such as whinchats may have some resilience at the population-level to the increasing anthropogenic habitat modification occurring in Africa, suggesting that conditions during migration and in Europe may be driving declines; yet establishing the currently unknown thresholds of any resilience is likely to be fundamental for the future conservation migrants.

Abstract:
Il cambiamento climatico e le alterazioni degli habitat sono ritenuti i principali fattori che contribuiscono alla perdita di biodiversità. Gli uccelli sono considerati un eccellente indicatore delle conseguenze del cambiamento climatico, a causa della loro estrema visibilità, mobilità e diffusione. Gli uccelli migratori sono ritenuti particolarmente sensibili a tali cambiamenti poiché, trascorrendo le diverse fasi del loro ciclo di vita in aree differenti, subiscono gli effetti di diversi pattern di cambiamento delle condizioni ecologiche. Questo lavoro esplora i molteplici effetti del cambiamento climatico e degli habitat sugli uccelli. In particolare, fornisce prove empiriche di come gli uccelli migratori siano influenzati dalla variabilità delle condizioni ecologiche incontrate sia negli areali non riproduttivi che durante i viaggi migratori e di come vi reagiscano. Si elencano di seguito i temi principali trattati nella tesi. Innanzitutto, si propone un innovativo metodo automatizzato per rappresentare le rotte migratorie attraverso l'analisi di dati di cattura e ricattura. La procedura è stata applicata su dati di inanellamento delle Rondini e ha consentito di ricostruire modelli migratori coerenti con le conoscenze pregresse di questa specie. Questo studio dimostra la possibilità di applicare il metodo di analisi ad altre specie meno studiate ed enfatizza il valore informativo dei dati di inanellamento, valore spesso sottostimato. Secondariamente, si valuta come le condizioni ecologiche esperite dalla Rondine negli areali non riproduttivi e durante i viaggi migratori influenzino le dinamiche demografiche della specie. I risultati indicano che l'arrivo nei quartieri non riproduttivi e nelle zone di sosta durante la migrazione primaverile sono le fasi più critiche del ciclo di vita di questo migratore. In un ulteriore studio basato sui dati di inanellamento del Pettirossi, un migratore parziale, si dimostra che la distanza percorsa dagli individui di popolazioni interamente migratrici diminuisce con inverni più miti. Questi studi indicano che le condizioni ambientali esperite dagli uccelli durante la stagione non riproduttiva possono influenzare i comportamenti dei migratori, con un impatto significativo sui trend demografici e sulla loro distribuzione. Inoltre, si osserva un diverso grado di variabilità nelle risposte fenologiche tra diverse popolazioni geografiche. Si indagano, gli effetti dell’allevamento sugli uccelli di habitat rurali che stanno subendo declini demografici in Europa. Questo studio è condotto attraverso una meta-analisi quantitativa della letteratura scientifica sull'argomento. I risultati confermano che la dismissione di pratiche di allevamento ha effetti negativi sull'abbondanza e la riproduzione delle Rondini. Un test sperimentale condotto su pulcini sottoposti ad un’alterazione controllata della disponibilità di cibo ha confermato che la disponibilità di risorse nei quartieri riproduttivi può alterare il loro comportamento di begging,, con conseguenze sulla loro fitness. Infine, sono presentati i risultati di due studi innovativi sul microbioma intestinale delle Rondini e del piumaggio dei Rondoni.<br>Climate change and habitat modification are the main anthropogenic causes of the alarming loss of the worldwide biodiversity. Highly visible due to diurnal lifestyle, mobile, and widespread in quite all habitats, migratory birds are considered excellent bio-indicators of the ongoing global environmental change. Long distance migrants − experiencing divergent patterns of change in ecological conditions in the breeding and non-breeding quarters − are more sensitive to these changes and, thus, are suffering larger demographical decline in comparison to short dis<tance migrants. The present dissertation investigates the multifaceted effects of climate change and habitat alteration on bird migratory behaviour. In particular, it provides empirical evidence of how migrants are affected by and react to variability in the ecological conditions in the non-breeding grounds and during migration journeys. The Barn swallow (Hirundo rustica), the European robin (Erithacus rubecula) and the Common swift (Apus apus) are the three model species use in this thesis. Firstly, a novel automatized method for representing migratory routes through the analyses of mark-recaptures data is proposed. The procedure is tested on the Barn swallows’ ring recoveries, which composed the largest ring database from the EURING and SAFRING databanks. The resulting migratory routes confirm the existing knowledge of the general migration pattern for the species in Europe, and emphasise the often-unexploited informative values of ringing data. Concerning the main topic of the dissertation, I documented the influence of ecological factors (i.e. the primary productivity) experienced by Barn swallows in their sub-Saharan non-breeding ranges and during migratory journeys aiming at identifying significant relations with the year-to-year population trends. The arrival at wintering ground and the resting at stopover sites during spring migration revealed to be the most critical phases of migrants’ annual life cycle. Similarly, I found that wintering thermal conditions experienced by the European robins induce spatial and temporal variations in migration propensity and distance among individuals and populations. The second part of the thesis includes other studies that increase the knowledge of other biological traits of the model species investigated during my Ph.D. course. A meta-analysis review of the existing literature confirmed that abandonment of livestock rearing, seen as a fundamental feature of rural habitats, exerts negative effect on the breeding Barn swallow, by reducing availability of invertebrate preys in the habitats or nest sites. An experimental test of food deprivation on Barn swallow nestlings further confirmed that resources supplies in the neighbourhood of a farm alter social intra-brood interactions and begging behaviour with potential consequences on nestlings’ quality. The dissertation ends with the description and characterization of Barn swallow gut microbiome and Common swift plumage bacteria. The similarity of bacterial communities among populations or groups of individuals disclose the possibility to use bacteria as intrinsic marks for bird origin.

Abstract:
Abstract The impact of artificial lighting on birds and animals has been a subject of research for many decades. These studies have established that light pollution from offshore facilities result in disturbing effects on migratory birds and marine animals. It is understood from the various studies that light emanating from offshore structures attract birds at night and disorient them during their migratory flight. As they are distracted from their flight path, they are either found trapped by the light that they keep circling around the installations or make them to take shelter in the installations, ultimately making them miss their migratory journey. This results in reduced winter survival and reduced reproduction success. Many birds are also found to die eventually because of bird strike or by getting themselves incinerated in flares. Congregation of birds in offshore installations also lead to risks related to helicopter landing / take-off. It is also observed that artificial light attracts marine species like turtles and fishes, which result in adverse effects like alteration of feeding habits, impacted circadian rhythm and interference with their reproductive function. From the knowledge of aforementioned disruptive effects of artificial lighting, significant efforts have been made to develop lighting systems for offshore installations that are eco-friendly. Various means of mitigating the undesirable effects of artificial lighting in offshore installations are being tried in the last couple of decades.

Abstract:
Today, global climate changes are taking place, leading to changes in the habitats of many species, including organisms of epidemiological importance. The transfer of such organisms will primarily involve the blood-sucking parasites of migratory birds. The sand martin (Riparia riparia Linnaeus, 1758) is one of many migratory birds nesting in the Saratov region. In order to understand how much the species is involved in the transmission of infection and the creation of a new focal point of infection, it is necessary to establish the taxonomic structure of the nidicol fauna.

Abstract:
Black and turkey vultures cause problems in several ways. The most common problems associated with vultures are structural damage, loss of aesthetic value and property use related to offensive odors and appearance, depredation to livestock and pets, and air traffic safety. Management of these diverse problems often can be addressed by targeting the source of the birds causing the problem, namely the roost where the birds spend the night. Often the roost itself is the problem, such as when birds roost on a communication tower and foul the equipment with their feces or when they roost in a residential area. Several methods are available for roost dispersal. Vultures are protected by the Migratory Bird Treaty Act, and are managed by the federal government. Vultures may be harassed without federal permits, but can be killed only after obtaining a Migratory Bird Depredation Permit from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. State wildlife agencies may require state permits prior to killing migratory birds.

Abstract:
The term blackbird loosely refers to a diverse group of about 10 species of North American birds that belong to the avian family Icteridae. The most common species include: Red-winged blackbird (Agelaius phoeniceus, Common grackle (Quiscalus quiscula), Great-tailed grackle (Quiscalus mexicanus), Brown-headed cowbird (Molothrus ater), Yellow-headed blackbird (Xanthocephalus xanthocephalus), Brewer’s blackbird (Euphagus cyanocephalus), and Rusty blackbird (Euphagus carolinus). They can cause damage to crops and fruits. Some of them may cause damage to livestock feed in feedlots and some of them may be a cause for concern in the future, due to the potential for disease transmission, with their expanding range. There is potential to amplify and spread disease to humans such as avian influenza although there is no evidence that this happened. Blackbirds are native migratory birds, and thus come under the jurisdiction of the Federal Migratory Bird Treaty Act (MBTA), a formal treaty with Canada, Mexico, Japan, and Russia. Blackbirds have federal protection in the U.S.

Abstract:
European starlings (Sturnus vulgaris, Figure 1)are an invasive species in the United States. The first recorded release of the birds was in 1890 in New York City’s Central Park. Because starlings easily adapt to a variety of habitats, nest sites and food sources, the birds spread quickly across the country. Today, there are about 150 million starlings in North America. Conflicts between people and starlings occur mostly in agricultural settings. Starlings damage apples, blueberries, cherries, figs, grapes, peaches, and strawberries. Starlings gather at concentrated animal feeding operations (CAFOs) during late fall and winter. Starlings also cause human health problem, airplane hazards, and nuisance problems. European starlings are not protected by the Migratory Bird Treaty Act (MBTA).

Abstract:
Canada geese, snow geese, ducks, and American coots all have been implicated in agricultural crop and turf damage. Generally, goose, duck, and American coot damage to crops, vegetation and aircraft can be difficult to identify. Usually the damage to crops or vegetation shows signs of being clipped, torn, or stripped. Tracks, feces, or feathers found neat the damage can be used to help identify the species. Damage to aircraft is obvious if the bird is recovered, but if not, and only bird parts are recovered, a scientific analysis is required. Canada geese, snow geese, ducks, and American coots are federally protected by the Migratory Bird Treaty Act (MBTA), which stipulates that, unless permitted by regulation, it is unlawful to “pursue, hunt, take, capture, kill, possess, sell, barter, purchase, ship, export, or import any migratory birds alive or dead, or any part, nests, eggs, or products thereof.” Generally, geese, ducks, and coots can be hazed without a federal permit in order to prevent damage to agriculture crops and property with a variety of scare techniques. In most cases, live ammunition cannot be used.
