Urban ecological studies often emphasize the role of vegetation‐related factors in promoting local biodiversity, but less attention has been given to human‐related factors, especially in tropical assemblages dominated by native species. In this study, we assessed the role of landscape and local variables in bird species richness and abundance in ...

Adaptiveness of Cattle Egret’s (Bubulcus ibis) foraging
Cattle Egrets (Bubulcus ibis) feeding in close association with cattle catch insect prey at a significantly higher rate and expend less energy than do those foraging alone. Cattle Egrets once had a strong association with grazing cattle, but have now shifted themselves behind tractors specially in inundated agricultural fields. Captures per minute were

ABSTRACT Slaughterhouses in The Gambia serve as critical feeding sites for diverse vertebrate scavenger communities, including hooded vultures, domestic dogs, pigs and avian species such as pied crows, black kites and cattle egrets. This study investigated how the quantity and type of organic waste influence the composition and competitive interactions

Visual fields, foraging and collision vulnerability in gulls (Laridae)
Wide variation in visual field configuration has been recorded among avian species and it is hypothesized that this variation is driven primarily by foraging ecology and predator detection. It has also been shown that visual field configurations can render some species more vulnerable to collisions with human artefacts that extend into open airspace ...
