Within‐Night Variation in Predictor Importance Highlights Dynamic Nature of Bird Migration
Ecology Letters, Volume 29, Issue 6, June 2026.Bar chart summarising median percent of gain contributed by each predictor type (atmospheric, sampling and terrestrial) for each timestep after sunset for spring (left) and fall (right) bird migration seasons. Predictor types are denoted by different colours.

Speciation History Shapes Patterns of Assemblage Species Richness in Birds
Ecology Letters, Volume 29, Issue 6, June 2026.Speciation is the ultimate source of biodiversity. However, because most species arise in spatial isolation, how speciation shapes patterns of co‐occurring species richness remains unclear. Here we examine how the legacy of speciation affects contemporary biodiversity patterns via a phylogenetic model and show that this build‐up is remarkably slow and ...

Mechanisms of Body Alignment in a Diurnal Songbird Migrant
Ethology, Volume 132, Issue 6, Page 399-411, June 2026.The graphical abstract illustrates the body alignment mechanism of a diurnal songbird migrant, the dunnock (Prunella modularis). Dunnocks consistently expressed an angular body alignment, with inter‐individual variation at the level of the population.

Ethology, Volume 132, Issue 6, Page 373-384, June 2026.Scoring of male courtship behaviour in Dolomedes minor revealed no effect of female mating status on courtship duration or sequence structure, but males delayed the initiation of courtship when encountering previously mated females. ABSTRACT The evolution of male courtship rituals has traditionally been attributed to female mate selection, but may also

A supramolecular assembly of cone‐specific G‐protein and cryptochrome 4a on lipid bilayer
The FEBS Journal, Volume 293, Issue 11, Page 3362-3375, June 2026.Immobilized phospholipid bilayers on a sensor chip surface serve as membrane platform to investigate critical protein–lipid and protein–protein interaction processes by surface plasmon resonance. The putative magnetoreceptor cryptochrome 4a and the myristoylated cone‐specific G‐protein α‐subunit (Gtα) bind with high affinity to immobilized lipid ...

Wildlife Rehabilitation Bulletin, 2011 This paper provides tips on various aspects of organizing a songbird rehabilitation program. Whether one works in a large center with several volunteers or is a home–based rehabilitator, developing procedures, protocols, and policies helps one manage each day more productively and provides continuity of care for each songbird patient.

Predation, Climate and Species Traits Interact to Shape Global Patterns of Avian Nest Architecture
Global Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 35, Issue 6, June 2026.ABSTRACT Aim Bird nest structures are critical for reproductive success and vary widely across species. However, the ecological and evolutionary drivers behind enclosed nests (domes and cavities) remain unclear, with previous studies yielding conflicting results.

DISAPPEARANCE AND RECOVERABILITY OF SONGBIRD CARCASSES IN FRUIT ORCHARDS
, 1990 Songbird mortality due to agricultural pesticides is often assessed by searching treated areas for carcasses. However, carcass removal by scavengers and the failure of searchers to find carcasses that are present may bias mortality estimates.

Molecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 12, June 2026.ABSTRACT Early‐life telomere length can be an integrated and accessible biomarker of lifetime fitness. Telomere length can result from complex interactions between heritable genetic variation, inherited gametic variation and accumulated environmental effects acting on individuals and parents.

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 40, Issue 2, Page 305-322, June 2026.A study of louse flies in the United Kingdom, Isle of Man, and Ireland found 212 different interactions between Hippoboscidae and their hosts, of which 70 were previously unrecorded. No louse flies were found on aquatic species of birds. Host‐switching to gulls (Laridae) has occurred during a period in which these species have started relying on ...
