Avian influenza overview June–September 2025
Abstract Between 7 June and 5 September 2025, 183 highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) A(H5) virus detections were reported in domestic (27) and wild (156) birds across 15 countries in Europe. Although HPAI A(H5N1) virus detections were predominant in western and southwestern Europe, they also occurred on the northernmost coast of Norway. More than

ABSTRACT Agents of taphonomy can bias skeletal parts and the frequency of bones in archaeological sites. An important factor to consider is the possible effect of bone density‐mediated attrition on archaeornithological assemblages. We scanned willow ptarmigan (Lagopus lagopus) specimens using a Lunar iDXA and an enCcore small animal body add‐on to ...

Climatic variation affects seasonal survival of an alpine bird species
Mountains are particularly exposed to climate change, and empirical studies have shown that montane bird species are highly sensitive to the ongoing changes. Modelling mortality risks under climatic variation will give insight into species‐specific sensitivity. Willow ptarmigan Lagopus l.

Avian influenza overview March–June 2025
Abstract Between 8 March and 6 June 2025, 365 highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) A(H5) virus detections were reported in domestic (167) and wild (198) birds across 24 countries in Europe. HPAI A(H5N1) virus detections were predominant and mainly located in western, central and south‐eastern Europe.

No support for solar radiation as a major evolutionary driver of malar stripes in falcons
The malar stripes of falcons (Falco spp.) are often hypothesised to function by reducing the amount of solar glare reflected into the falcon's eyes while hunting, thereby aiding foraging efficiency in bright conditions. This ‘solar glare hypothesis' is supported by intraspecific trends in peregrine falcons Falco peregrinus, in which populations ...

Gyrfalcon in Boyd County, Nebraska
Gyrfalcon (Falco rusticolus) is considered in Nebraska to be a rare casual winter visitor statewide (Sharpe et al. 2001). Since 1990, there has been only one NOURC (Nebraska Ornithologists\u27 Union Records Committee) accepted record (Class III) for ...

A single nucleotide polymorphism (MC1R: c.376A>G) in the MC1R gene was found to be highly correlated with pigment phenotype in the Gyrfalcon. Homozygous genotypes c.376GG and c.376AA were found to dominate the extreme white and dark plumage types ...

First record of gyrfalcon Falco rusticolus in Korea
On 20 March 2010, One Gyrfalcon (Falco rusticolus) was observed at Nakdong river, Sangju city, Gyeongsangbukdo province (E128° 14′ 25.6″ N36° 25′ 05.0″), and this is the first record of this species for the Korean peninsula. The Gyrfalcon has distributed

This article reviews the literature on how prairie dogs as keystone species affect grassland birds, an imperiled avian community. We tested hypotheses and synthesized conclusions from the literature, and then we identified key knowledge gaps to be filled with future work.
