Journal ArticleDOI
Supplementary feeding restructures urban bird communities
TL;DR: This study directly demonstrates that the human pastime of bird feeding substantially contributes to the structure of avian community in urban areas, potentially altering the balance between native and introduced species.
Journal ArticleDOI
Garden Bird Feeding: Insights and Prospects from a North-South Comparison of This Global Urban Phenomenon
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that bird feeding is important for urban biodiversity conservation, community engagement, and in establishing personal connections with nature and their associated benefits.
Journal ArticleDOI
Risks and drivers of wild bird feeding in urban areas of New Zealand
Josie A. Galbraith,Jacqueline R. Beggs,Darryl Noel Jones,Ellery J. McNaughton,Cheryl R. Krull,Margaret C. Stanley +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used a comprehensive approach to investigate the practice of bird feeding in the unique avian landscape of New Zealand, and identified ecological risks from current feeding practices.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The low level of diversity among all BFDV isolates from red-fronted parakeets could suggest a more recent infection among these birds compared to the yellow-crowned parrot populations, whereas the diversity in the eastern rosellas indicates a much more established infection.
Journal ArticleDOI
Urban Bird Feeders Dominated by a Few Species and Individuals
Josie A. Galbraith,Josie A. Galbraith,Darryl Noel Jones,Jacqueline R. Beggs,Katharina Parry,Margaret C. Stanley +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated patterns of feeder use by garden birds visiting experimental feeding stations in Auckland, New Zealand, with the specific aim of determining whether use of supplementary food was consistent or variable among individuals and species.
