Breeding densities of Robin Erithacus rubecula in different habitats: the importance of hedgerow structure: Capsule Territory density varied between habitat types and displayed a clear relationship with certain macro‐ and micro‐habitat characteristics. pp. 97-104(8) Authors: Fennessy, Gavin J.; Kelly, Thomas C.
Surveying waterbirds away from major waterbodies: implications for waterbird population estimates in Great Britain: Capsule Population size estimates of widely dispersed waterbird species in Great Britain were improved using a stratified random sample of habitats in addition to standard counts of known wetlands. pp. 105-111(7) Authors: Jackson, Sarah F.; Austin, Graham E.; Armitage, Michael J. S.
Relationships between bird abundance and the composition and structure of moorland vegetation: Capsule Variations in the composition, structure and heterogeneity of moorland vegetation are shown to affect the abundance of eight of nine moorland bird species, with implications for grazing management. pp. 112-125(14) Authors: Pearce‐Higgins, James W.; Grant, Murray C.
Population trend and breeding biology of Montagu's Harrier Circus pygargus in a natural vegetation site in northeast Spain: Capsule Reproductive output in a natural habitat was higher than in birds breeding in cereal crops, highlighting the importance of natural habitats for the species. pp. 126-131(6) Authors: Limiñana, Rubén; Surroca, Martín; Miralles, Stephan; Urios, Vicente; Jiménez, Juan
Effects of individual life‐history traits and weather on reproductive output of Black‐headed Gulls Larus ridibundus breeding in the Wadden Sea, 1991–97: Capsule Annual breeding success was relatively constant and is shown to be related to clutch size and growth rate and to be positively affected by rain during egg‐laying and advanced chick‐rearing phase. pp. 132-141(10) Authors: Thyen, Stefan; Becker, Peter H.
Breeding biology of the Song Thrush Turdus philomelos in an island population: Capsule Breeding characteristics were explained by agricultural intensification, climate, latitude and insular syndrome. pp. 142-155(14) Authors: Kelleher, Katherine M.; O'Halloran, John
Diet of nestling Linnets Carduelis cannabina on lowland farmland before and after agricultural intensification: Capsule Between the 1960s and 1990s, nestling diet has changed in ways consistent with the impact of agricultural intensification on the availability of seed sources. pp. 156-162(7) Authors: Moorcroft, Darren; Wilson, Jeremy D.; Bradbury, Richard B.
Phenotype‐dependent selection of juvenile urban Feral Pigeons Columba livia: Capsule We suggest the existence of colour‐based selection processes on juvenile Feral Pigeons in an urban environment. pp. 163-170(8) Authors: Haag‐Wackernagel, Daniel; Heeb, Philipp; Leiss, Andreas
Nest‐site selection and predation in Savi's Warblers Locustella luscinioides: Capsule Savi's Warblers preferred sites dominated by high and dense Juncus and Rubus with thick litter, and avoided pure reeds; predation was higher in sites with less litter. pp. 171-176(6) Author: Neto, Júlio M.
Breeding bird communities in the upland margins (ffridd) of Wales in the mid‐1980s: Capsule The bird communities in the Welsh marginal uplands were frequently distinct from those of adjacent habitats and consisted of heterogeneous mixtures of species strongly influenced by vegetation composition and land‐use. pp. 177-186(10) Authors: Fuller, Robert J.; Atkinson, Philip W.; Garnett, Martin C.; Conway, Greg J.; Bibby, Colin J.; Johnstone, Ian G.
Effect of nestbox construction and colour on the occupancy and breeding success of nesting tits Parus spp.: Capsule Breeding performance was not affected, although variation in nestbox occupancy may result from perceived differences in protection from predators and insulation properties. pp. 187-192(6) Author: Browne, Stephen J.
