Overwinter users of nest cavities affect breeding birds via nest‐dwelling ectoparasites

open access: yesEcosphere, 2023
Cavities used for avian reproduction in spring often host other organisms for roosting during winter, which should affect their microclimatic conditions and, then, the patterns of emergence of nest‐dwelling ectoparasites of birds and successful ...

Population expansion of the Hoopoe Upupa epops in Silesia, SW Poland

open access: yesRivista Italiana di Ornitologia - Research in Ornithology, 2016
A total of 258 breeding pairs of the Hoopoe were recorded in Silesia (c. 42,000 km2), SW Poland, during the years 2004- 2008. This is almost twice more than during the years 1978-1987 (136 pairs). This increase was rather unexpected.

Disentangling the spatial and temporal causes of decline in a bird population

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2020
The difficulties in understanding the underlying reasons of a population decline lie in the typical short duration of field studies, the often too small size already reached by a declining population or the multitude of environmental factors that may ...

Multiple habitat associations: the role of offsite habitat in determining onsite avian species density [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Many animal populations continue to decline despite occurring in protected areas or on sympathetically managed sites. Frequently, this is because a specific habitat patch may not fulfil all the niche requirements of a threatened species.

Massive nest-box supplementation boosts fecundity, survival and even immigration without altering mating and reproductive behaviour in a rapidly recovered bird population. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Habitat restoration measures may result in artificially high breeding density, for instance when nest-boxes saturate the environment, which can negatively impact species' demography.

The effects of hatching asynchrony on growth and mortality patterns in Eurasian Hoopoe Upupa epops nestlings [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Growth is a fundamental life history trait in all organisms and is closely related to individ- ual fitness. In altricial birds, growth of many traits is restricted to the short period between hatching and fledging and strongly depends on the amount of ...

Gut microbiota variation and trophic niche differentiation among sympatric birds in a forest-farmland mosaic

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Conservation
The abundance and diversity of gut microbiota influence avian health, nutrient assimilation, and overall physiological performance. However, the extent to which variation in gut microbial composition corresponds to resource use and niche differenśtiation

Chlamydia species in free-living Cattle Egret (Bubulcus ibis) and Hoopoe (Upupa epops) in Egypt

open access: yesInternational Journal of Veterinary Science and Medicine, 2014
Little information is available on the presence of chlamydia infection in wildlife. This study was conducted to assess the occurrence of chlamydiae in asymptomatic birds from two species of wild birds (Cattle Egret and Hoopoe) in Egypt.
