Why didn't you stop that bird?

RE: Aviary (birds birds) - ICan'tGiveCredit - 05-11-2015

Why didn't you apprehend, incarcerate that bird. Slap some chains on it and feed it to another bird.

To make the bird vortex

The naturalist approach is bomb diggity, ecology major here to verify

A boyfriend of mine (who currently works in forestry looking at biological control of key pest species) noticed gulls (species uncertain, probably Dominican; he's going to try ID them properly next time he's at the site) eating Huhu beetles that are attracted to floodlights at the processing station for a pine plantation. Huhus are a big, robust, native beetle whose larvae live in rotting wood.

Gulls are not known for selectively preying on these beetles, so this could be a behavioural response to living in an biospherically scant habitat like an artificial pine forest! He's going to submit the observation to an ornithological journal, in case some gull-loving graduate down the track decides to put together a research proposal for studying how gull feeding patterns vary over space and time or what have you, and needs stuff in scientific journals to show that there's cool things up worth studying.

RE: Aviary (birds birds) - Schazer - 05-11-2015

I'd probably have to request he put up a separate PDF of it, as Notornis (The journal he'd be submitting it to) shoves their less-than-one-year old stuff behind a membership paywall.

It looks like people can submit any old observation of interest as a Short Note, though. Anything on this page with a single/two-page count would be the kind of submission we're talking about, although obviously people submit the findings from robustly-designed studies and junk, too.

I didn't know gulls could eat that many things.

here's horse the australian magpie, who is old (not sure HOW old but he must be getting there at this point)
he likes sunbathing and has his own specific spot where he does it
