Migration is one of the most physical and energetically demanding periods in an individual
bird's life. The composition of the bird's gut or cloacal microbiota can temporarily change …

Among the potential animal reservoirs of the zoonotic parasite T. gondii, birds have received
relatively little attention. This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to assess the …

To develop effective conservation strategies for migratory birds, it is essential to understand
the ecology of a species at each biological phase, including its wintering (or non-breeding) …

Global climate change is an ongoing pervasive global conservation concern, with significant
negative impacts for many species and populations. This Conservation Letter provides a …

Stochasticity in food availability influences vital rates such as survival and fertility. Life-
history theory predicts that in long-lived organisms, survival should be buffered against …

Migration monitoring may allow us to detect population trends over large geographic areas
because the pattern of change in migrant counts may be expected to follow the pattern of …

Aim This report summarises the results of a review of the conservation status of the 36
species of birds of prey that are considered to breed in North Africa according to the IUCN …

Simple Summary Although impacts of climate change at the population level are frequently
reported in the scientific literature, the effects of global warming on particular individuals are …

The seasonal phenology of latitudinal movements is one of the key life-history traits of
migratory birds. We used quantile regression to examine long-term changes in the timing of …

Birds are useful indicators of biodiversity. Their bones have been used for reconstructing the
local environments and seasonality of human activity at Epipalaeolithic and early Neolithic …
