Abstract:
The distribution of regular winter bird species to the south of Tenerife is studied on a UTM grid of 1x1 km. Eighteen bird species (i.e. 14 non-passerines & 4 passerines), belonging to 7 families were detected: 5 non-passerines (Anatidae, Rallidae, Charadriidae, Scolopacidae, Sternidae) and 2 passerines (Alaudidae and Motacillidae). Anatidae, Rallidae, Sternidae, Alaudidae were all represented by a single species, whereas Charadriidae by 2 and Motacillidae by 3 species. At least 9 members of the Sandpipers (Scolopacidae) were detected, but some limited their distribution to an important ma

Abstract:
During spring and summer 1997, non-passerines were surveyed in three woodlots near Arnprior, Ontario, using standard point counts, and standard point counts combined with “pishing” (pishing involves the observer saying the words “pish pish pish pish” in a continuous series of short bursts). Of the 27 non-passerine species detected, 22 were recorded on more days using pishing as opposed to the standard point count method. However, only three of these species were recorded on significantly more days using pishing. Several woodpecker species approached more closely during point counts with pishin

Abstract:
SummaryAt the present time the earth is facing an anthropogenic (human-caused) mass extinction event that may eventually rival previous mass extinction events caused by drastic changes i n the physical environment; however, the impact of this event on the earth's biotic diversity remains difficult to predict. Patterns of extinction and endangerment in birds, one of the best known taxonomically among major groups of organisms, showed that the distribution of human impact has been non-uniform relative to phylogenetic relationships. Fifteen major avian lineages differed over 35-fold with respect

Abstract:
AbstractHabitat modification may facilitate the emergence of novel pathogens, and the expansion of agricultural frontiers make domestic animals important sources of pathogen spillover to wild animals. We demonstrate for the first time that Plasmodium juxtanucleare, a widespread parasite from domestic chickens, naturally infects free-living passerines. We sampled 68 wild birds within and at the border of conservation units in central Brazil composed by Cerrado, a highly threatened biome. Seven out of 10 passerines captured in the limits of a protected area with a small farm were infected by P.

Abstract:
Three groups of fluorescing pigments in the plumage of birds of Australo-Papua and elsewhere have been known for a while, all restricted to certain groups of non-passerines. Recently, fluorescing plumage in several species of birds-of-paradise (Paradisaeidae) and other passerines has been reported, the first evidence of this in this group of birds. This raises the question of the nature of this unidentified pigment and its possible distribution elsewhere in the Passeriformes.

Abstract:
An attempt has been made to understand the extent of ornithophony (vocalization of birds) in the soundscape of Anaikatty Hills. The study was limited to 13 hours of daylight from dawn to dusk (06.00–19.00 h) between January 2015 and October 2016. Six replicates of 5-minute bird call recordings were collected from each hour window in 24 recording spots of the study area. Each 5-minute recording was divided into 150 ‘2-sec’ observation units for the detailed analysis of the soundscape. A total of 78 recordings amounting to 390 minutes of acoustic data allowed a preliminary analysis of the ornith

Abstract Of the approximately nine thousand to ten thousand extant birds, some 40% constitute the evolutionarily more primitive, and typically larger bodied, non-passerines and 60% the typically smaller, and evolutionarily more advanced, passerines or ‘perching’ birds. Bowerbirds are medium sized members of the passerines, which have characters of their legs, feet, palate, syrinx, and sperm that together define them as such but none of which is unique to them (but see below). Passerines are subdivided into a more primitive group, the Tyranni or suboscines (having a mesomyodian syrinx worked by

Abstract:
Abstract One of the most widespread ecological phenomena for which there is yet to be a single satisfying explanation is why the number of eggs in a clutch declines with latitude. This is one area where research on raptorial birds can make an impact because several studies have now compared food resources between northern temperate and southern subtropical regions and arrived at similar conclusions. These global trends in avian reproduction are well known and were first analysed by Moreau (1944) and Lack (1947); they found that avian reproductive output, particularly clutch size, decreases pro

Abstract Domesticated Australian Zebra Finches are the avian model of choice in many behavioural investigations. In this chapter I will first describe the relevant behaviour of free-living birds and then consider the more scientifically rigorous observations from the laboratory. Non-social behaviour of Zebra Finches, other than feeding and drinking (Chapters 4 and 5), is more or less the same as that found in other small passerines and is not dealt with here. I have listed non-social behaviours observed in wild birds in an ‘ethogram’ in Appendix 3. Finally, vocal behaviour and sexual preferenc

The purpose of an NRCA is to: 1) synthesize information related to the primary drivers and stressors affecting natural resources identified by park managers, 2) report conditions for these natural resources, and 3) provide management recommendations to park managers based on NRCA findings. During a scoping meeting with report writers and Subject Matter Experts in September 2023, participants identified the top three drivers of change within MEVE to be cl
