The strength of migratory connectivity for birds en route to breeding through the Gulf of Mexico
The strength of migratory connectivity is a measure of the cohesion of populations among
phases of the annual cycle, including breeding, migration, and wintering. Many Nearctic …

Identifying migratory pathways of Nathusius' pipistrelles (Pipistrellus nathusii) using stable hydrogen and strontium isotopes
Rationale Identifying migratory corridors of animals is essential for their effective protection,
yet the exact location of such corridors is often unknown, particularly for elusive animals …

Wood warblers copy settlement decisions of poor quality conspecifics: support for the tradeoff between the benefit of social information use and competition avoidance
Social information use in songbird habitat selection commonly involves a conspecific
attraction strategy. Individuals copy the breeding‐site choices of conspecifics, that is, bias …

Moult location and diet of auks in the North Sea inferred from coupled light-based and isotope-based geolocation
Many pelagic seabirds moult their feathers while at sea, which is an energetically costly
behaviour. Mortality rates during moult can be high, so spatial and trophic ecology during …
