Biometrics and Primary Molt of Common Tern and Sandwich Tern in Autumn in Puck Bay, Southern Baltic
Waterbirds, 2007Data were collected at one of the important stop-over sites in the southern Baltic between 1989 and 1995. Sandwich Terns were not only more advanced in primary molt than Common Terns, but also replaced their flight feathers faster due to larger number of primaries growing simultaneously. All caught adult Sandwich Terns were in active molt, whereas over

Biometrics and colour forms of chicks of common terns and arctic terns
Ringing & Migration, 1984Methods of distinguishing the chicks of Common and Arctic Terns based on measurement of tarsus length and on the colours of the dorsal down and the belly down are described. The variation of tarsus length with age was investigated by relating it to bill length, to mid‐toe length, and to body weight.

Evidence for social facilitation of preening in the common tern
Animal Behaviour, 1998Social facilitation of reproductive behaviour has been studied extensively in gulls and terns, but social facilitation of preening has been reported only anecdotally, and has not been previously quantified. We studied a common tern, Sterna hirundo, colony during the summers of 1996 and 1997 to test for socially facilitated preening.

Primary moult in black terns and common terns
Ringing & Migration, 1987In July‐September 1984 the primary moult of Black Terns Chlidonias niger and Common Terns Sterna hirundo was studied in the southwestern region of the Ijsselmeer near Amsterdam, The Netherlands. The study was undertaken using the method of collecting and identifying shed primaries. Primaries collected were identified by their lengths. Both species have

Group Adherence in the Common Tern
Bird-Banding, 1951An additional decade of field work and study in this area has yielded data which not only further substantiate the concept of the Cape 'Cod group of terns, but also show some of the reasons for the persistence of this phenomenon. It suggests that while kinship is an important causative factor, as in similar associations of other forms, it is ...

Chick Survival in Terns (Sterna Spp.) with Particular Reference to the Common Tern
The Journal of Animal Ecology, 1972The differential survival of young birds within a brood prior to fledging occurs in many bird species. This phenomenon is particularly common in raptors, storks and corvids where it has been well documented (e.g. Schmaus 1938; Schuiz 1942, 1957; Lockie 1955), but it also occurs in various other species.
