Avian ResearchThe post-fledging period, extending from fledging to independence, is a crucial life stage characterized by high mortality due to fledglings' limited mobility and inexperience.

Disentangling functional spaces: a multidimensional framework for ecology and conservation
Ecography, EarlyView.Trait‐based ecology often relies on a single functional space, where diverse traits are combined into one multivariate framework. While convenient, this approach risks masking ecological strategies because variance is often dominated by a few traits, such as body size.

Turning Down Mum's Cooking: The Ethics of Dietary Difference within Families
Journal of Applied Philosophy, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Although food ethicists have called for greater attention to the relational context of eating for over a decade, the context of ‘eating with family’ remains largely ignored. But the family is both a morally specific relational context and one within which many people do most of their eating.

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Rapid phenotypic change may be mediated by intergenerational transmission of early developmental experiences. In birds, exposure to glucocorticoids during early development can alter global DNA methylation and gene expression. However, DNA methylation is labile, and it is currently unclear whether the impacts of stress suffered during juvenile

Post-fledging survival, movements, and habitat associations of Gray Vireos in New Mexico
Avian Conservation and Ecology, 2022 Annual population growth in songbirds can be particularly sensitive to post-fledging survival, but research and management are frequently biased toward the nesting stage.

Habitat use and characteristics of Connecticut Warbler during the nesting and post-fledging period
, 2020 These data were collected as a part of an effort to study the nesting ecology of Connecticut Warbler (Oporornis agilis). The fledgling_vegetation_data and associated fledgling_vegetation_metadata file contains vegetation survey data that was collected at

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Glucocorticoids are upregulated during acute challenges, contributing to maintenance of energy balance. However, if this upregulation exceeds a threshold or becomes chronic, it can lead to harmful effects. Investigating the factors behind between‐individual variation in the magnitude of the response to acute stress and how effectively ...

Factors influencing pre-fledging mass recession of nestling Tree Swallows [PDF]
, 2016 Fledglings of some aerial insectivores experience pre-fledgling mass recession, possibly to achieve an optimum wing loading by the time of fledging. However, studies of aerial insectivores to date have been limited to two species of swifts (Apodidae ...
