Corpses as Repositories of Information and Funerals as Information Centres: Why Natural Selection Favours the Bereaved

open access: yesEthology, EarlyView.
Corpses are repositories of information about the cause of death. The distress of the bereaved acts as an honest signal drawing conspecifics to the body, enabling them to learn quickly about the death, adapt their behaviour, and spread knowledge of threats across multiple social levels.

A systematic review and meta‐analysis of variation in nest predation of ground‐nesting birds

open access: yesIbis, EarlyView.
Predation and communities of predators of ground‐nesting bird nests and fledglings have been studied across multiple groups of ground‐nesting birds, such as waders, waterbirds, gamebirds and passerines, and habitats, but differences and similarities between groups are less studied.

Population dynamics and reproductive success of Short‐eared Owls in relation to widely fluctuating food abundance and farmland habitat degradation

open access: yesIbis, EarlyView.
Populations of the Short‐eared Owl Asio flammeus have declined across Europe and North America, probably in response to habitat degradation driven by agricultural intensification. However, long‐term evidence linking farmland habitat change to variation in breeding density and reproductive success remains limited.

Persecution by humans affects nest‐site selection of Hooded Crows: a comparison of an urban and two rural areas

open access: yesIbis, EarlyView.
The Hooded Crow, a bird species that once occurred only in agricultural areas, has colonized urban environments in the last 50–100 years in Europe. Apart from higher food availability, safer nesting sites, better thermoregulation and lower predation in cities, persecution through hunting, trapping or poisoning by humans in rural areas is an important ...

Crows

open access: yes, 2005
To depict a flock of crows perching on a dead or dormant tree, Kim Dorland fashioned the birds from thick globs and twists of paint squeezed directly from the tube; synthetic feathers - some of them red or blue like those of cardinals or blue jays ...

Directional analysis of upper eyelid wrinkles and a quantitative index for periorbital ageing

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cosmetic Science, EarlyView.
Eyelid wrinkles not only increase in number and depth but also shift in orientation with ageing. After 40, the dominance of a particular orientation in the upper eyelid image is associated with broader periorbital wrinkle severity, providing a novel quantitative index for fine‐grained ageing assessment. Abstract Objective Periorbital ageing, manifested
