Avian Research, 2023 Nordmann's Greenshank (Tringa guttifer) is a globally endangered species that has received little research attention. It is threatened by rapid habitat loss, an incomplete network of protected sites, and lack of long-term data on population dynamics ...

Global aerial flyways allow efficient travelling [PDF]
Ecology Letters, 2015 AbstractBirds migrate over vast distances at substantial costs. The highly dynamic nature of the air makes the selection of the best travel route difficult. We investigated to what extent migratory birds may optimise migratory route choice with respect to wind, and if route choice can be subject to natural selection.

Raptor migration in an oceanic flyway: wind and geography shape the migratory route of grey-faced buzzards in East Asia [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2018 Flapping flight is relatively costly for soaring birds such as raptors. To avoid costly flight, migrating raptors generally avoid flying over water. As a result, all but one of the global raptor migration flyways are largely over land.

Wintering Steppe Eagle in Hurghada (Egypt) from 2016 till 2022
Пернатые хищники и их охрана, 2023 The East African-Eurasian flyway is one of the most important routes for migratory soaring birds in the world. Each spring and autumn 37 species of migratory soaring birds navigate this flyway, with over a million birds passing through the larger ...

Prey type and foraging ecology of Sanderlings Calidris alba in different climate zones: are tropical areas more favourable than temperate sites? [PDF]
PeerJ, 2015 Sanderlings (Calidris alba) are long-distance migratory shorebirds with a non-breeding range that spans temperate and tropical coastal habitats. Breeding in the High Arctic combined with non-breeding seasons in the tropics necessitate long migrations ...

Shifting of the Migration Route of White-Naped Crane (Antigone vipio) Due to Wetland Loss in China
Remote Sensing, 2021 In the last 15 years, the west population of white-naped crane (Antigone vipio) decreased dramatically despite the enhanced conservation actions in both breeding and wintering areas.
