Sedimentary Metagenomics Reveal Avian Community Transitions From the Last Glacial Maximum to the Holocene. [PDF]
We used sedimentary ancient DNA shotgun metagenomics to reconstruct past bird communities in northern high‐latitude environments. By using long time series and data collected across a large environmental gradient, we contributed in a unique and explorative way to the understanding of palaeoecological dynamics between birds and their habitat on the ...

Migration, Habitat and Hunting Style Do Not Affect the Malar Stripe of Different Falcon Species. [PDF]
Migratory strategy, habitat and hunting style do not markedly influence the size and intensity of malar stripes across falcon species, suggesting that other mechanisms, such as thermoregulation or camouflage, also play a role. ABSTRACT The solar glare hypothesis suggests that the malar stripe of a falcon decreases the sun's glare in the eye, possibly ...

Home Range and Habitat Selection of the Endangered Red Goshawk (<i>Erythrotriorchis radiatus</i>) Across Australia's Tropical Savannas. [PDF]
We used long‐term GPS tracking to quantify home‐range size and habitat selection of the endangered Red Goshawk across tropical savannas of northern Australia. Red Goshawks occupied extensive overall home ranges, with well‐defined core ranges centred on nest sites.

Serratospiculosis in Captive Peregrine Falcons (Falco peregrinus) in Switzerland [PDF]
Infection with Serratospiculum species was identified in a captive peregrine falcon (Falco peregrinus) in Switzerland. Pathologic and parasitologic examination results revealed generalized severe granulomatous airsacculitis, with intralesional adults ...
