Journal ArticleDOI

Boldness behavior and stress physiology in a novel urban environment suggest rapid correlated evolutionary adaptation

TL;DR: In this article, the authors compared elevation in corticosterone (CORT) in response to handling and flight initiation distances in birds from a recently established urban population in San Diego, California to birds from an ancestral wildland population in the species' ancestral montane breeding range.
Journal ArticleDOI

Which birds adjust the frequency of vocalizations in urban noise

TL;DR: It is found that raising the minimum frequency is common in urban birds and is not restricted to passerine song, but also occurs in other vocalizations of passerines and parrots, indicating that frequency differences between species influence the way in which they respond to the same communication problem, and possibly also the subsequent evolution of acoustic signals.
Journal ArticleDOI

Are bird species that vocalize at higher frequencies preadapted to inhabit noisy urban areas

TL;DR: It is found that species occurring in urban environments generally vocalize at higher dominant frequency than strictly nonurban congeneric species, without differing in body size or in the vegetation density of their natural habitats.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hormonal, Behavioral, and Life-History Traits Exhibit Correlated Shifts in Relation to Population Establishment in a Novel Environment

TL;DR: It is argued that correlated shifts in multiple traits, organized by underlying physiology, may be a generally important element of many successful adjustments to changing environments.
Journal ArticleDOI

Inferring performance in the songs of dark-eyed juncos (Junco hyemalis)

TL;DR: It is concluded that bird receivers may best evaluate how well a song is performed if they integrate multiple cues and discuss how researchers may similarly devise measures of song performance.
