Feeding ecology

2005
Abstract Herons are, fundamentally, birds that wade in the water to capture aquatic prey with their bills. Many of the biological characteristics, described in Chapter 1, influence and reflect the way they feed.

Zooplankton feeding ecology

Marine Biology, 1985
Hjort proposed that fishery year-class fluctuations are due mainly to variable larval mortality, and that most mortality is due to early starvation. Some larvae die because they do not find enough zooplankton to eat, but others may die because zooplankton cat them.

Abstract All the Australian estrildines feed on the seeds of grasses, but no species concentrates on them to the same extent as Zebra Finches. Six quantitative studies of diet have been published since Immelmann’s (1962a, 1965a) original observations, and despite differences in habitat and climate among the studies, they agree on two ...

Seabird Feeding Ecology

1987
When not tied to breeding colonies, seabirds can range over vast areas of sea in search of food, and, if necessary, migrate to avoid a hostile winter environment. As the onset of breeding approaches however, they must obtain enough food to undertake the journey to their breeding colonies.
