New year, new covers! The first issue of 2023 features a group of common guillemots on the Treshnish Isles, Scotland.
A new paper by Bernd Meyburg and Daniel Holte shows that adult ospreys demonstrate high fidelity to migratory paths in autumn and spring, as well as to the timing of migration in autumn; and sidewinds are predominantly compensated, especially when sidewinds are strong.
Journal of Avian Biology is delighted to announce the introduction of a new article category: Mini-Reviews.
We at Journal of Avian Biology wish you a HAPPY NEW YEAR and are glad to share the Nov/Dec issue cover featuring the artwork by Joshua LaPergola, a portrait of a black catbird.
In this study, we examined whether population declines in the Cape Rockjumper were caused by decreased provisioning rates at higher temperatures, leading to smaller nestlings and thus lower fledging or post...
In this study we challenged the widespread view that tropical seabirds forage more unpredictably than temperate and polar species, and we tested the hypothesis that the foraging behaviour of a species...
As specialists of temperate mountain ecosystems in Europe, Ring Ouzels Turdus torquatus are expected to be particularly vulnerable to climate change. However, the underlying mechanisms by which drier and warmer...
Shearwaters and petrels are some of the worlds greatest travellers. The migration of adult Manx shearwaters has been documented by use of small biologging devices. It showed that those seabirds fly from UK, across the globe...
We are very happy to announce that Journal of Avian Biology is participating in a pilot on transparent peer review.
To fully know a species and develop sound conservation efforts, its full life cycle must be understood. But tracking small migratory birds for thousands of miles has proven challenging, if not impossible, in the past. However, using new and minute technology...
