Título: | Floater strategies in the spotless starling |
Autor: | Gil, Diego CSIC ORCID ; Monclús, Raquel; Muriel, Jaime CSIC ORCID ; D'Arpa, Stefania R. CSIC ORCID; Pérez-Rodríguez, Lorenzo CSIC ORCID | Fecha de publicación: | 2019 | Citación: | ASAB Summer Conference (2019) | Resumen: | Nest-site limitations are an important constraint for hole-nesting birds. We studied a spotless starling (Sturnus unicolor) population in which the number of floaters exceeds nest site availability. By providing extra nest-boxes we found that floaters search for a nesting place throughout the breeding season until the very end of the second-broods, even though the chances of raising young successfully at that time are greatly reduced. Female floaters showed evidence of increased follicular development around the population laying peak, showing reproductive synchronization with female nest-owners, and suggesting a brood-parasitism strategy. We further studied movements of floaters by radio-tags and transponder readers, finding that they show limited home areas. This suggests that floaters settle in reduced areas within the colony, possibly as a way of acquiring public information about available nesting sites. | Descripción: | Resumen del trabajo presentado a la ASAB Summer Conference: "New Frontiers in the Study of Animal Behaviour", celebrada en University of Konstanz (Alemania) del 26 al 28 de agosto de 2019. | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/10261/217519 |
