Abstract:

The paper presents the recent data on the distribution and breeding abundance and distribution of the Mongolian Gull, Slaty-backed Gull, Black-tailed Gull and the Common Tern nesting within Peter the Great Bay of the Sea of Japan. Over the past 30 years, all species of gulls increased their abundance, while the Common Tern has almost ceased to nest on the islands of the bay.

Abstract:

This research note documents an observation of a wild western grey kangaroo (Macropus fuliginosus) feeding on a dead silver gull (Chroicocephalus novaehollandiae) at Lucky Bay in the Cape Le Grand National Park on the south coast of Western Australia. Published evidence suggests that this behaviour is not unique and could be widespread in Western Australia and further afield. We consider why the kangaroo may be feeding on the dead gull and possible implications for conservation programs relying on poison meat baits to control introduced species.

Abstract:

The ongoing decline of sea ice threatens many Arctic taxa, including the ivory gull. Understanding how ice-edges and ice concentrations influence the distribution of the endangered ivory gulls is a prerequisite to the implementation of adequate conservation strategies. From 2007 to 2013, we used satellite transmitters to monitor the movements of 104 ivory gulls originating from Canada, Greenland, Svalbard-Norway and Russia. Although half of the positions were within 41 km of the ice-edge (75% within 100 km), approximately 80% were on relatively highly concentrated sea ice. Ivory gulls used mor

The predation by large gulls on passerines migrating across the southeastern North Sea was studied on the offshore island Helgoland throughout 1999; 15,307 pellets of Herring Gull Larus argentatus and Great Black-backed Gull L. marinus were examined. The main prey was fish and crustaceans, but during migratory seasons of passerines (March to May, August to November) up to 7% of the pellets contained remnants of passerines (mainly thrushes Turdus spp. and Starlings Sturnus vulgaris, but few species of <50 g body mass). For half-month periods, the number of pellets containing passerines corre

Abstract:

Abstract Migration poses a high risk to birds. Crossing of large bodies of water is especially demanding for land birds. One of the dangers faced by migrants are opportunistic predators like gulls. Most gulls Laridae are generalist predators with omnivorous diets. Attacking on migrating birds was investigated during ground observations of bird migration at Ada Island (S Montenegro) between 17 Mar and 10 Apr 2015. We recorded 20 attacks on 22 individuals of six species and on one unidentified passerine. In four instances gulls attacked birds of prey, in two Hoopoe Upupa epops and in 16 passerin

Abstract:

The ivory gull Pagophila eburnea is a high-Arctic seabird associated with sea ice throughout the year. It breeds at high latitudes, mostly in the Atlantic sector of the Arctic. It is rare (<11500 breeding pairs globally) and remains one of the most poorly known seabirds in the world. Although Svalbard (Norway) supports breeding populations of international significance, the population trend in the region was unknown prior to this study. We conducted annual surveys of known breeding sites from 2006 to 2019 to estimate the size of the ivory gull population in Svalbard and to assess the popula

An environmental impact assessment for the area was done in 2002. The area holds 850–1050 pairs of breeding birds annually.

Abstract The distribution and abundance of scavenging seabirds and their utilization of discards and offal between June and December 1998 were studied in the western Baltic Sea. Herring gulls were clearly the most numerous scavenging species in all areas and all seasons, followed by great black-backed gulls, lesser black-backed gulls and mew gulls. High percentages of discarded gadoids (cod, whiting), clupeids (herring, sprat), scad, rockling and offal were consumed by seabirds during experimental discarding on fishing boats, whereas the percentages of flatfish consumed were extremely low.

AbstractAs with most archipelagos, geography played a central role in the assembly and evolution of the endemic-rich biological communities of the Gulf of Guinea oceanic islands. The islands are located at moderate distances from the species-rich African continent that surrounds them to the east and north. This proximity facilitated colonization by many branches of the tree of life, but gene flow between the islands and continent was low enough that many lineages evolved in isolation once they reached the archipelago, resulting in many endemic species. Furthermore, several of the island taxa b

Abstract:

Islands are landmarks for sea birds, whether for orientation, as resting points during foraging and migration trips, or most importantly as nesting sites. This is due to the isolation that islands offer, rendering them free of many of the continental predators. If, additionally, islands are located in the midst of highly productive waters, they provide sea birds with abundant food, which is particularly valuable during the nesting season. This is the case in the northern Sea of Cortes. Not surprisingly, we find that the islands of this region are nesting sites for more than 90% of the world’s

Very few of the early scientific explorers in the Gulf of California had much to say about the land birds. There might be two reasons for this: first, the land birds in arid, desert regions are sparse and in general unbecoming, and second, the species encountered are by and large those seen in the much more accessible regions of southwestern North America.

There was an endless backdrop of clouds, sand, and waves, miles away from roads or houses.

Abstract:

The nature of the relationships between physical and biological processes in the ocean is subtle and complex. Not only do the physical phenomena create a structure, such as a shallow, mixed layer or a front, within which biological processes may proceed, but they also influence the rates of biological processes in many indirect ways. In the ocean, physical phenomena control the distribution of nutrients necessary for phytoplankton photosynthesis. Places with higher kinetic energy have higher concentrations of planktonic organisms, and that makes the whole food web richer (Mann and Lazier 1996)
