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.

Ethology, EarlyView.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, EarlyView.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 ...

Spring migration of Blackpoll Warblers across North America
Avian Conservation and Ecology, 2020 The awe-inspiring seasonal migrations of birds between breeding and wintering grounds has long attracted the interest of casual naturalists and professional ornithologists alike. Although new technologies improve our ability to follow individual migrants

Evaluation of an automated recording device for monitoring forest birds
Wildlife Society Bulletin, 2012 Monitoring of forest songbirds via auditory detections during point surveys can be enhanced by using preprogrammed recording devices. During May–July 2008, we compared boreal forest bird surveys conducted with SM‐1 bird song recorders (Wildlife Acoustics,

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.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 ...

The what, which, when, why and who of Off responses in the auditory system
The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend In this article, we will first review ‘What’ different mechanisms are involved in the generation of Off responses at the sub‐cortical and cortical level of the auditory system. Then, we evaluate ‘Which’ stimulus properties elicit Off responses at the different levels of the auditory system.

The effect of white‐tailed deer density on breeding songbirds in Delaware
Wildlife Society Bulletin, 2013 Most population goals for white‐tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) are based solely on deer data, with little consideration for other parts of the ecosystem. A wider ecological approach is needed for more justifiable target deer densities.

Developmental Neurobiology, Volume 86, Issue 2, April 2026.ABSTRACT The cortico‐basal ganglia pathways that mediate vocal learning in zebra finches (Taeniopygia guttata) are localized in parallel circuits formed by CORE and SHELL subregions. These circuits traverse a specialized region of the basal ganglia essential for vocal learning (Area X), which includes intermixed striatal and pallidal neurons.
