Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2021 Hosts of brood parasitic cuckoos often employ mobbing attacks to defend their nests and, when mobbing is costly, hosts are predicted to adjust their mobbing to match parasitism risk. While evidence exists for fine-tuned plasticity, it remains unclear why

Coadaptation of offspring begging and parental provisioning--an evolutionary ecological perspective on avian family life. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Offspring begging and parental provisioning are the two central social behaviours expressed during the period of parental care. Both behaviours influence each other and it is, therefore, hypothesized that they should ultimately become (genetically ...

Female song rate and structure predict reproductive success in a socially monogamous bird.
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2016 Bird song is commonly regarded as a male trait that has evolved through sexual selection. However, recent research has prompted a re-evaluation of this view by demonstrating that female song is an ancestral and phylogenetically widespread trait. Species
