The authors’ detailed delineation of problems with the accuracy of NYC breeding bird surveys or with the limits of historical writings may test a reader’s patience. The first three sections are brief, presenting a summary of the bird’s current NYC status (migrant, resident, breeder, vagrant, etc.), It’s a very mixed chapter.

This is similar to the fact that all birds, even first time breeders within a species build identical nests. According to these researchers, only the exceptionally intelligent herons acquire the skill of bait fishing. Just a bit of ingenuity can make a big difference for these herons and their progeny if they are breeding.

The breeding ecology of the Yellow-bellied Warbler was actually studied exactly here at Nonggang in 2019 by 3 Chinese researchers. Some Thai researchers looked at the breeding ecology of the Buff-breasted Babbler and published their findings in the somewhat unsuitable-sounding journal “Agriculture and Natural Resources”.

A study on the breeding biology of Whitehead’s Broadbill was just published in May 2023 but leaves a bit of a puzzle as the breeding success is described as relatively high, meaning there should be other reasons for the population decline of the species. That might help these species deal with climate change.

Author Joshua Hammer, who previously wrote about a different type of real-life-unexpected-caper in The Bad-Ass Librarians of Timbuktu , read about Lendrum in the Times of London in 2017, realized the possibilities, did the research. And, how they betrayed that trust, stealing eggs for years and, possibly even worse, falsifying research data.

Over the next few days, the Alpine Accentors ( Prunella collaris ) will arrive on their high-Alpine breeding grounds – it is time to start singing, despite that the treeless Alpine landscape is still under metres of snow. all Alpine Accetor photos digiscoped (c) Dale Forbes. all Alpine Accetor photos digiscoped (c) Dale Forbes.

With regard to the Grey-backed Thrush , “further research should focus on identification of nest predators, implications of nest exposure and begging calls on nesting success, and breeding habitat requirements at different spatial and temporal scales of Grey-backed Thrush in fragmented landscapes of northeast China.”

But then, I am not a cooperative breeder either (nor a non-cooperative one, should this term exist). For quite a few birders visiting Wuyuan, the main reason is to see the Blue-crowned Laughingthrush. The Grey-sided Scimitar Babbler looks like it is constantly a bit confused about the status of this world.

Yes, Germans were a particularly supersticious breed in the days of old, and would not dare to use the word devil even when cursing. When researching the origin of this saying, I figured it pertained to snares that were used to catch thrushes until better times prevailed. You know, cavity breeders. Yupp, you read that correctly.

With all of those birds singing and showing off their breeding colors, it’s no surprise that we see major bird races like Champions of the Flyway and The World Series of Birding , along with other main birding events like the Global Big Day. Spring isn’t just a season of change and renewal.

Please do not think any less of me, I set out to write a more sensationalist piece about adult Dusky Moorhens murdering their young, only to realise when I opened a book to do some research that I had misremembered that fact and it was coots that committed that misdeed. They may breed as a group, but monogamy is the general rule.

Turtle Dove Turtle Doves are a protected species in Britain, in fact the status of Turtle Doves has become of so much concern there is a special project called Operation Turtle Dove created to look at how the huge declines in our British breeding populations might be halted.

Apparently , the two main factors influencing double brooding are the individual quality of the breeder and the timing of the first clutch. Finally, in my own compound, just a few meters away from my apartment, Chinese Blackbirds are breeding – though without a lockdown, I am spending less time on them this year than last year.
