Nest defence and predator recognition by Arctic tern \kur{(Sterna paradisaea)}
In the presented work, I describe the behaviour of Arctic terns (Sterna paradisaea) toward predator species that differ in the threat they represent to them and to their nests.

Many seabird species are in decline and population demographic models are important for revealing the causes and developing conservation strategies. Natal and breeding dispersal are key parameters of such models but can be challenging to estimate and may vary by sex.

Source amplitude increases with body‐mass across avian genera
Amplitude, or intensity, of sound is a fundamental characteristic of acoustic communication, with relevance in many scientific fields. The amplitude of an animal's acoustic signal at its source (‘source amplitude’) may be particularly relevant in the field of acoustic allometry, where relationships between species' physical and acoustic features (e.g ...

The impacts of sleep disturbance on birds: a review of the knowledge gaps
Sleep is an evolutionarily conserved behaviour critical to animal function. While the exact functions of sleep are still unclear, the ubiquity of sleep behaviour and its potential high costs (e.g. reduction in foraging time, increased vulnerability to predators) suggest sleep serves a critical role for animals.

Human activity near seabird colonies is often equated with disturbance. Coping with human disturbance is a critical task in the management of seabird colonies where human access is an issue. Nest‐site fidelity and breeding dispersal were characterised in an Arctic tern population exposed to a high level of benign human activity from resident ...

Adjustment of the annual cycle to climatic change in a long-lived migratory bird specie
Climate change has advanced the phenology of many organisms. Migratory animals face particular problems because climate change in the breeding and the wintering range may be asynchronous, preventing rapid response to changing conditions. Advancement in

Abstract The emergence of highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) A(H5N1), clade 2.3.4.4b, genotype B3.13 in U.S. dairy cattle marks a significant shift in the virus' host range and epidemiological profile. Infected cattle typically exhibit mild clinical signs, such as reduced milk production, mastitis and fever, with morbidity generally below 20% and

Commons are cared for: Coexistence between humans and wild birds on the island of Kihnu, Estonia
Abstract Local knowledge is an essential dimension of humanity's relationship with the environment. Investigating the interdependence between humans and wild birds holds value in fostering a mutually beneficial relationship with avian populations. Gathering bird eggs is a significant practice for Kihnu islanders in Estonia.
