Resilience of Breeding Boreal Waterbirds to Harsh Wintering Conditions: Could Climate Warming Smooth Population Declines?

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
Due to global climate change, wintering conditions of open water‐dependent waterbirds have become milder in central‐western Europe. We found that breeding populations of most waterbird species in northern Europe are resistant to cold winters, and this pattern was not associated with long‐term population trends. Results suggest that breeding populations

Vocal Phenology of Forest Tinamous Along a Latitudinal Gradient: Effects of Daylength and Precipitation

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
Based on an analysis of eBird records, this study finds that the vocal patterns of tropical forest tinamous are primarily influenced by changes in daylength, with a secondary effect of precipitation. Birds sang more when days were longer or shorter than 12 h and during drier periods, especially in wetter regions.

Shifting Balancing Selection Underlies an Inversion Cline in Eurasian Blackcap

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
We investigated what factor contributes to a cline of a chromosomal inversion of the Eurasian blackcap, which differs from typical inversion clines maintained by divergent selection. Using a simulation‐based machine learning approach, we found that the inversion is under negative frequency‐dependent selection, and the optimal frequency is shifted ...

The Presence and Behaviour of Birds at Two Prescribed Fires in Sweden

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
Shifting fire regimes pose immediate threats to animal conservation. Swedish birds appear to mostly ignore prescribed fire, and some species even continue to sing. Behavioural plasticity towards fire is poorly understood, but may prove to be an essential tool in animal conservation.

Bird Diversity and Habitat Associations in the Tara Gedam Monastery Church Forest: A Seasonally Informed Study in Northwestern Ethiopia

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
This study explores how habitat structure and seasonal variation shape bird diversity in the Tara Gedam Monastery church forest of Ethiopia. Across wet and dry seasons, 94 species were recorded, with abundance higher in the wet season but diversity remaining stable, underscoring the forest's role as a perennial refuge.
