The European Bee-eater (<em>Merops apiaster</em>) is an opportunistic insectivore of open habitats, preying mainly on medium to large-sized flying insects. Its diet composition received some attention in the past, but the current variation in diet composition of birds breeding across different habitats, and between adults and chicks remains poorly known. In this study, we determine variation in bee-eaters’ diet in colonies located in five common habitats at the Iberian Peninsula. We also assess differences in the diet composition of chicks and adults and investigate seasonal diet selectivity of adults. Finally, we explore the variability in the size of prey provided to chicks throughout their growth period. Hymenoptera and Coleoptera were the most important groups for bee-eaters, with adults and chicks consuming 58.8% and 64.1% of hymenopterans and 37.6% and 28.6% of coleopterans, respectively. The proportion of Hymenoptera (42.3–55.7%) and Coleoptera (43.3–53.5%) in the diet was similar in colonies in pasture and oak habitats, but Hymenoptera dominated (83.8% and 95.7%) in meadow and mixed forest colonies. Despite being a generally opportunistic predator, adult bee-eaters provide their progeny with an increasing proportion of larger insects through chick development. Moreover, they equally take Hymenoptera and Coleoptera for themselves and their chicks, even when the abundance of these insects decreases seasonally. Overall, these results suggest that local prey availability associated with specific habitats influences diet composition and that regional declines in certain groups may, therefore, affect insectivore species differently according to their dietary and habitat preferences.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":51311,"journal":{"name":"Avian Research","volume":"15 ","pages":"Article 100211"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142662127","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We conducted the first study using accelerometry to detect food provisioning in birds, using Support Vector Machine (SVM) models to identify when adults feed chicks of three different age classes. Accelerometers were attached to the head of adult female Imperial Shags (<em>Leucocarbo atriceps</em>), and various attributes derived from the acceleration signals were used to train SVM models for each chick age class. Model performance improved with chick age class, with SVM models achieving high overall accuracy (>88%) and highest sensitivity in older chick categories (>91%). However, precision values, especially for younger chicks, remained relatively low (between 26% and 45%). The application of a time filter based on the minimum duration of the observed food provisioning behaviours for each chick age category, improved model performance by reducing false provisioning behaviours, particularly in the model for older chicks, which showed the highest precision (72.4%). This study highlights the effectiveness of accelerometry and machine learning in studying parental food provisioning in birds, providing a rapid and accurate data collection method to complement traditional techniques. The described methodology can be applied to any bird species that exhibits distinctive movements while feeding its offspring and has suitable characteristics for attaching an accelerometer to the body part that best captures this movement.

They showed a unimodal recess pattern in which nest departures peaked primarily between 13:00 and 16:00. Furthermore, females rarely left nests when daily precipitation was high. Recess duration and nest attendance were influenced by the interaction between daily mean ambient temperature and daily precipitation, as well as day of incubation. Additionally, there was a positive correlation between clutch size and recess duration.

This study investigated the effect of Common Cuckoo (<em>Cuculus canorus</em>) parasitism on the productivity of a local population of the Great Reed Warbler (<em>Acrocephalus arundinaceus</em>) host in south-western Slovakia. A total of 495 females nesting at the studied site successfully fledged 1321 of their own young and 63 young of the Common Cuckoo over the course of 15 years (2008–2022), and the annual rate of successful parasitism ranged from 18% to 44% over this period. As predicted, higher rates of successful cuckoo parasitism significantly reduced the annual productivity of the local Great Reed Warbler population, and its contribution to decreased host reproductive success was at about the same rate as overall nest failure caused by predation and other environmental factors. Such a heavily parasitized population was probably maintained by immigrants from other populations and density-dependent selection, which is also consistent with source–sink dynamics.

In this study, we investigated potential variations in the routes and timing in autumn migration of juvenile and older soaring birds, using count data of Greater Spotted Eagles (<em>Clanga clanga</em>) from two coastal sites and two inland sites in China. From 2020 to 2023, we recorded a total of 340 individuals, with the highest site averaging over 90 individuals per autumn, making it one of the world’s top single-season counts and thus a globally important site for this species. We found that 82% and 61% records from coastal sites were juveniles, significantly higher than inland sites (15% and 24%). Juveniles at all four sites exhibited markedly earlier median passage time than non-juveniles, with brief overlapping in their main migration periods. Both coastal sites are located on the tip of peninsulas stretching southwest, requiring long overwater flights if crossing the Bohai Bay or Beibu Gulf, which would be energetically demanding and increase mortality risk. Experienced individuals may have learned to avoid such terrain and subsequent detour, while juveniles are more prone to enter these peninsulas due to lack of experience and opportunities for social learning, or following other raptor species that are more capable of powered flight.
