TL;DR: The subtending angle of natural prey at detection was lower than that of resolution of square-wave, high-contrast grating and turbidity, at levels significantly lower than commonly used in behavioural experiments, had a pronounced effect on visually mediated behaviour patterns.

TL;DR: To study the hypothesis that migratory waterfowl are possible disseminators of Vibrio cholerae and Aeromonas, a large number of birds from around the world are studied.

TL;DR: The effects of competition and risk of predation on secondary cavity breeders were examined using an experimental design manipulating two nest entrance sizes (large entrances allowed Barn Owls to enter, while the small entrances excluded them), and Jackdaws probably did not breed in large entrance nest boxes due both to exploitation competition and the risk of interference competition.

TL;DR: The measurements of minimal nitrogen requirements and total endogenous nitrogen loss in the omnivorous European starling Sturnus vulgaris suggest that the low measured nitrogen requirements of nectar‐feeding birds are not simply the result of their sugary and watery diets but a physiological adaptation to the low nitrogen input.

TL;DR: Rhus coriaria L. est decrite pour the premiere fois comme un semencier facultatif apres incendie dans une foret naturelle de pins sur le Mont Carmel en Israel.
