Behavioral aspects of waterbirds [PDF]
Abstract Estuaries are used by waterbirds as foraging, resting and nesting sites, serving also as shelter for migratory birds. The dynamics of this avifauna in an aquatic environment may be associated with the differences of time of day, tide height, temperature, wind speed and use of the site by different species.

Impact of water level on spring bird assemblages in a natural river valley in central Europe
Water level appears to be crucial for waterbirds, especially in the changeable conditions prevailing in river valleys. One of the best preserved Central European rivers is the Biebrza in north-eastern Poland, which seasonally overflows in spring ...
