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 ...

The human population is growing rapidly, increasing pressure on natural habitats. Suitable habitats for resident and migratory waterbirds are, therefore, more threatened. This study analyses how the presence of anthropogenic land cover (urban area and cropland) at multiple spatial scales affects the community composition of waterbirds along the Nile in

ABSTRACT Aim We expand here previous own biogeographic work on the determinants of avian colonisation of a major land‐bridge Mediterranean island. So far we have explained mechanistically the high current rate of colonisation of the island which proceeds by overflow of mainland species with growing population trends and with prior experience as winter ...

Bird Assemblages on Gurage Highland Lakes: Patterns of Species Diversity and Composition
The study investigated the role of highland lakes in conserving avian fauna in the Gurage highland, south‐central Ethiopia. The study was carried out from January 2022 to October 2022 by considering dry and wet seasons. The transect lines are designed purposively at the shoreline of the lake by moving around the lake.

Exploring the Role of Wild Bird Species in the Transmission of Avian Influenza to Poultry
Wild aquatic birds are crucial in maintaining the high pathogenicity avian influenza (HPAI) viruses. However, the HPAI dynamic at the wild‐domestic interface is still poorly known, and a comprehensive understanding of species that could potentially act as a bridge between wetlands and poultry farms is still lacking.

GROSS AND MORPHOMETRICAL STUDIES ON HUMERUS OF CATTLE EGRET (BUBULCUS IBIS) [PDF]
The present study was conducted on the two humeri bones of cattle egret. The humerus of cattle egret was a long pneumatic bone. The proximal extremity was broad and flattened cranio-caudally and presented head and two tubercles.
