Abstract:
Abstract We monitored radio-tagged Harlequin Ducks (Histrionicus histrionicus) to determine whether nocturnal feeding was part of their foraging strategy during winter in south-central Alaska. Despite attributes of our study site (low ambient temperatures, harsh weather, short day length) and study species (small body size, high daytime foraging rates) that would be expected to favor nocturnal foraging, we found no evidence of nocturnal dive-feeding. Signals from eight radio-tagged Harlequin Ducks never exhibited signal loss due to diving during a total of 780 minutes of nocturnal monitoring.

Abstract:
The pecten oculi is a unique and highly specialized structure found in the eyes of birds. It is a thin, folded, fan-like membrane that extends from the optic nerve region into the vitreous fluid of the eyeball. This membrane is primarily composed of pigment cells, an extensive network of blood vessels, and a thick basal lamina. The pecten's main function is to supply nutrients and oxygen to the retina, maintain the internal eye temperature, and support sharp vision, especially during activities such as migration and hunting. The number of folds in the pecten varies between diurnal and nocturna

Urban bird atlases offer solid information about the distribution and breeding status of birds and can help in urban planning, education, research, pest control, and many other fields of work. In Romania, the first urban atlas was completed for Cluj city in 2017. Our study offers solid information about breeding birds from the capital city, Bucharest, the biggest city in Romania.

Abstract:
Early arrival at the breeding site positively affects the breeding success of migratory birds. During migration, birds spend most of their time at stopovers. Therefore, determining which factors shape stopover duration is essential to our understanding of avian migration. Because the main purpose of stopover is to accumulate fat as fuel for the next flight bout, fuel reserves at arrival and the accumulation of fuel are both expected to affect stopover departure decisions. Here, we determined whether fuel reserves and fuel accumulation predict a bird's motivation to depart, as quantified by noc

Abstract:
Abstract I studied summer movements of juvenile Reed Warblers (Acrocephalus scirpaceus) marked as nestlings during four field seasons (1999–2002). To control for birds' movements, nocturnal playback of songs and daytime mist-netting were done. Captures by song playback suggest the existence of nocturnal postfledging movements in Reed Warblers. Birds' age (days) during such movements was found to be 39–52 days. I analyze the temporal schedule and physiological condition of the birds during this period and discuss the mechanism of nocturnal postfledging dispersal and its background and relations

Abstract:
(Uploaded by Plazi for the Bat Literature Project) Anti-predation strategies are critical to animal survival and are fundamental to deciphering predator–prey interactions. As an important defense strategy, sensory predator detection (such as through acoustic and visual cues) enables animals to assess predation risk and execute predator-avoidance behavior; however, there are limited studies on the anti-predation behavior of nocturnal animals. The prey of bats provides an excellent representative system for examining the anti-predation behavior of nocturnal animals. Here, we broadcasted differen

Understanding interactions between biota and the built environment is increasingly important as human modification of the landscape expands in extent and intensity. For migratory birds, collisions with lighted structures are a major cause of mortality, but the mechanisms behind these collisions are poorly understood. Using 40 years of collision records of passerine birds, we investigated the importance of species' behavioural ecologies in predicting rates of building collisions during nocturnal migration through Chicago, IL and Cleveland, OH, USA.

Birds are a key environmental asset and this is recognised through comprehensive legislation and policy ensuring their protection and conservation. Many species are active at night and surveys are required to understand the implications of proposed developments such as towers and reduce possible conflicts with these structures. Night vision devices are commonly used in nocturnal surveys, either to scope an area for bird numbers and activity, or in remotely sensing an area to determine potential risk.

On the wing, a common nighthawk is acrobatic and incredibly sleek. In the hand, however, its wings seem too long, its body squat and strange.
