DOI: 10.1002/ece3.70846
Abstract: ABSTRACT Specimens stored within museum collections are increasingly leveraged to reconstruct historical baselines to both decipher the legacies of past anthropogenic impacts and anticipate the consequences of future climate change on species distributions. However, the… read more here.

Individual Antipredator Responses Are Positively Correlated Across Cue Types in Free‐Living Black‐Capped Chickadees ( Poecile atricapillus )

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.72016
Abstract: ABSTRACT Prey animals must accurately assess predation risk within their environment. To gather information about this risk, prey animals may personally sample the environment (“personal information”) or observe the behavior of congeners (“social information”). Personal… read more here.

Discrimination of acoustically similar conspecific and heterospecific vocalizations by black-capped chickadees (Poecile atricapillus)
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "Animal Cognition"
DOI: 10.1007/s10071-017-1087-5
Abstract: Chickadees produce a multi-note chick-a-dee call in multiple socially relevant contexts. One component of this call is the D note, which is a low-frequency and acoustically complex note with a harmonic-like structure. In the current… read more here.

Discrimination of male black-capped chickadee songs: relationship between acoustic preference and performance accuracy

DOI: 10.1016/j.anbehav.2017.02.001
Abstract: Many species form social groups with dominance hierarchies. Often, individuals possess a status signal that indicates dominance rank. Songbirds produce songs that are used to attract mates or repel rivals, and acoustic features within songs… read more here.

Exploring sources of (co-)variation in timing and total daily feeder visits in a wild population of black-capped chickadees
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2024 at "Biology Letters"
DOI: 10.1098/rsbl.2024.0365
Abstract: The timing and amount of foraging in birds are shaped by many of the same extrinsic factors, including temperature and daylength, as well as intrinsic factors, such as sex and age. Here, we investigate co-variation… read more here.

Individual risk-taking behaviour in black-capped chickadees (Poecile atricapillus) does not predict annual survival
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "Royal Society Open Science"
DOI: 10.1098/rsos.220299
Abstract: Within species, individuals often show repeatable differences in behaviours, called ‘animal personality’. One behaviour that has been widely studied is how quickly an individual resumes feeding after a disturbance, referred to as boldness or risk-taking.… read more here.

Vernal growth of vocal control nucleus Area X, but not HVC, precedes gonadal recrudescence in wild black‐capped chickadees (Poecile atricapillus)
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2024 at "Journal of Neuroendocrinology"
DOI: 10.1111/jne.13375
Abstract: In temperate‐zone songbirds, the neuroanatomical changes which occur in advance of breeding, including the growth of nuclei of the vocal control system, are believed to occur downstream of gonadal recrudescence. However, evidence from wild birds… read more here.

DOI: 10.47349/jbi/13012017/16
Abstract: ABSTRACT Phytogenic feed additives are plant-derived product such as herbs, spices, and essential oils used in animal feed to improve their performances and health. Garlic (Allium sativum) is well-known as a spice and herbal medicine.… read more here.
