Is the breeding distribution of Dippers influenced by stream acidity
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show that fewer Dippers are present on acidic reaches of rivers, probably because changed water quality affects the birds' food supply, though this is not the only way that watercourses can increase in acidity.
Journal ArticleDOI
The post-natal and breeding dispersal of Welsh Dippers Cinclus cinclus
TL;DR: In this article, the authors found that adults showed strong fidelity to breeding sites, only 3.6% (of 138) moving more than 2.5 km between breeding attempts, whereas 30% of birds ringed as nestlings moved more than 5 km and up to 32 km from natal sites.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biometrics, growth and sex ratios amongst Welsh Dippers Cinclus cinclus
TL;DR: Weights of nestlings indicated sex‐related differences, although it was impossible to sex every nestling using weight alone, and a ‘condition factor' is suggested from regression of weight on wing length.
