  Title (up) The foraging efficiency of great tits (Parus major L.) in relation to light intensity Type Journal Article
  Year 1979 Publication Animal Behaviour. Abbreviated Journal Anim. Behav.  
  Volume 27 Issue Part 1 Pages 237-241  
  Keywords  
  Abstract I report an experiment aimed at testing whether foraging efficiency of great tits is limited by light intensity at the time of the dawn chorus. Captive great tits hunting for prey under different luminance conditions were less successful in finding prey when foraging, hunted for a lower proportion of their time, and handled individual prey items for longer when luminance was under approximately 7 cd/m2. This luminance is not reached in the field until after the time of the dawn chorus, suggesting that in the early morning foraging is limited by light intensity. I suggest that a satisfactory functional explanation of the dawn chorus must take into account the comparatively low foraging opportunity early in the morning, as well as the factors affecting the opportunity for singing and other territorial activities.

  Title (up) The logical stag: Adaptive aspects of fighting in red deer (Cervus elaphus L.) Type Journal Article
  Year 1979 Publication Animal Behaviour. Abbreviated Journal Anim. Behav.  
  Volume 27 Issue Part 1 Pages 211-225  
  Keywords  
  Abstract For red deer stags, fighting both has appreciable costs and yields considerable benefits. Up to 6% of rutting stags are permanently injured each year, while fighting success and reproductive success are closely related, within age groups as well as across them. Fighting behaviour is sensitive to changes in the potential benefits of fighting: stags fight most frequently and most intensely where potential benefits are high and tend to avoid fighting with individuals they are unlikely to beat. The relevance of these findings to theoretical models of fighting behaviour is discussed.
