Seasonal body mass changes in Eurasian Golden Plovers Pluvialis apricaria staging in the Netherlands:decline in late autumn mass peak correlates with increase in raptor numbers
Eurasian Golden Plovers Pluvialis apricaria staging in the Netherlands during the non-breeding season show strikingly constant seasonal changes in body mass with a first mass peak in late November and December and a second peak in late April and May. Despite huge sample sizes, variations in this pattern over successive years in the 1990s and among age classes were minuscule. However, in contrast to the body mass levels at other times of the year, there was a marked decline in the winter peak mass of Golden Plovers from the 1970s/early 1980s to 1989-2000. The decrease, by an average of 29 g, wa... Mehr ...
