Netherlands Journal of Zoology, 1994
An analysis of bill, forelimb and hindlimb skeletal morphology of four families of aerial foraging birds (apodids, caprimulgids, glareolids and hirundinids) and closest related families of non-aerial foragers (charadriids and parids) was made to investigate possible convergence for acrial feeding in groups with very different phylogenetic histories ...

Declines in insectivorous birds are associated with high neonicotinoid concentrations

Nature, 2014
Recent studies have shown that neonicotinoid insecticides have adverse effects on non-target invertebrate species. Invertebrates constitute a substantial part of the diet of many bird species during the breeding season and are indispensable for raising offspring.
