Urban Green Spaces Set the Stage for Rare Interspecific Allopreening Between Crested Caracara (Caracara plancus) and Black Vultures (Coragyps atratus)

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
Observations in San Antonio, Texas documented rare interspecific allopreening between crested caracaras and black vultures at Phil Hardberger Park. This represents the first recorded instance of such behavior in an urban green space, expanding the known ecological and geographic scope of interspecies social interactions.

Past research and future directions in understanding how birds use their sense of smell

Ibis, Volume 167, Issue 4, Page 853-881, October 2025.
Our understanding of the functional importance of olfaction to birds has improved over the past 60 years, largely as the result of experimental studies testing how birds use their sense of smell in different contexts. As it is impossible to measure directly which odours birds can detect, we rely on measuring behavioural responses to scent cues or ...

Avian influenza overview June–September 2025

EFSA Journal, Volume 23, Issue 10, October 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

Assessment of a Social Media‐Based Method for Determining Raptor Diet

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 6, June 2025.
This study mined social media as a citizen science method to reduce the time burden and biases associated with recording accurate diet information for predators. In total, 1985 prey observations were recorded of two Australian coastal raptors and were used to produce diet profiles that were compared by region, social media platform, and against other ...

Double brooding and offspring desertion in the barn owl (Tyto alba) [PDF]

, 2015
Many bird species produce two annual broods during a single breeding season. However, not all individuals reproduce twice in the same year suggesting that double brooding is condition-dependent.

Spatial responses of black vultures to resource pulses during white‐tailed deer hunting seasons

Wildlife Society Bulletin, Volume 49, Issue 2, June 2025.
Pulsed resources can dramatically influence spatial ecology of wildlife. We investigated black vulture responses to resource pulses from white‐tailed deer hunting season. We found that black vulture home range size and overlap decreased with harvest intensity. Abstract Pulsed resources can dramatically influence spatial ecology of wildlife.
