Formation of Distance‐Based Orientation: Political Identity through Relational Positioning in Israel

open access: yesSymbolic Interaction, EarlyView.
Distance‐based orientation describes how pejorative labels may serve as anchor points for political identity.

Ontogeny of foraging behaviour in an opportunistic gull inhabiting urban marine ecosystems

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Urbanization affects ecosystems by reducing biodiversity and displacing species from native habitats. While some suffer, others, like urban wildlife, adapt through innovative feeding and behaviours that improve their fitness in human‐altered settings. Despite research on wildlife in urban areas, the development of foraging behaviour in urban species is

Flexible parental care in a songbird correlates with sex‐specific responses to seasonal phenology, mating opportunity and reproductive success

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
This population‐comparative study reveals that male and female parents respond differently to social and ecological conditions. This sex‐specific responsive strategy is related to the incongruent parental care systems across populations in Chinese penduline tits.
