New paper: What determines when birds moult in tropical environments? In common bulbuls, diet manipulation shows that moult onset depends on body condition before moult, while moult speed depends on resources available during moult. ㅤ ➡️ https://vist
New paper: how does moult affect immune function in birds? In Eurasian blackbirds, immune function remained stable across moult progression in both juveniles and adults, suggesting maintenance of immunity during this energetically demanding stage. ㅤ
