В начале гнездового сезона на Куршской косе Балтийского моря в окрестностях полевого стационара Фрингилла раскладывали в разных точках куриные перья и шерсть собак, выкрашенные в разные цвета бытовыми красителями для шерсти. В течение сезона искали гнезда птиц с меченым материалом и после вылета из них птенцов разбирали по компонентам. Получены количественные данные о массе и структуре гнезд пяти видов воробьинообразных, проанализирована их сезонная динамика, измерено расстояние, с которого в гнезда были принесены порции крашеной шерсти и перьев. Выявлено, что самая большая дистанция доставки материала у большой синицы (Parus major) (1 км). Пеночка-весничка (Phylloscopus trochilus) и зяблик (Fringilla coelebs) не меньше половины материала для выстилки собирали за пределами демонстрируемой самцами территории, удаляясь от гнезда на расстояние до 140 м. Ключевые слова: гнездостроение, материал для выстилки гнезда, размер демонстрируемой гнездовой территории, пространство обитания, Parus major, Phylloscopus trochilus, Fringilla coelebs

The breeding plumage of pied flycatcher males exhibits the full spectrum of transitions from contrasting black and white to cryptic brownish, the latter being very similar to the colouration of females. In spite of numerous studies, the nature of this polymorphism still remains vague. Unlike many other avian species with monocyclic breeding, a considerable fraction of pied flycatchers overlaps two energy con suming productive processes, breeding and moult, over the whole species range. During the main experimen tal treatment we activated the humoral immunity of free living males in chick rearing period by injection of nonpathogenic multifactorial antigen (sheep red blood cells, SRBC) and estimated the strength of the immune responses after repeated captures in 6-8 days. In addition, after each capture we evaluated the num bers of leucocytes (WBC), heterophil to lymphocyte ratios (H/L) and measured night time basal metabolic rates (BMR). Non moulting males of different colour types showed the same immune responses. Among moulting birds, the strength of the immune response was significantly higher in pale males (morphs 4-7 by Drost's scale) than in bright males with rich melanin based colouration (morphs 2-3). This difference resulted from two opposite processes. During moulting, pale males heightened the antibody titer after immunization, while bright males tended to reduce the strength of immune response. Possibly such an asymmetry in immunocom petence at the first stage of moult reflects the different life strategies of pied flycatcher males-conspicuous birds less commonly overlap breeding with moult than cryptic ones.

Long-term studies of individually marked animals are not an exception. These studies are especially important as instrumental for understanding evolutionary and ecological processes in the wild. Further, their number and global distribution provides a unique opportunity to assess the generality of patterns and to address broad-scale global issues (e.g. climate change). To solve data integration issues and enable a new scale of ecological and evolutionary research based on long-terms studies of birds, we have created the SPI-Birds Network and Database (www.spibirds.org) – a large-scale initiative that connects data from, and researchers working on, studies of wild populations of individually recognizable (usually ringed) birds. Within a year of the establishment, SPI-Birds counts 120 members working on more than 80 populations, w...

The total amount of visits was 760. Most of the visits (94%) were made by males and 5% and 1% were made by females and young birds with juvenile plumage, respec tively. Both bachelor and paired males of various ages were among the visitors. Most of the adult birds and all young ones behaved as "inspectors"; a part of the visitors tried to feed nestlings. Among them, only nine males and a female were constant "helpers."

From this equation the DEBs of 26 most numerous in the studied region bird species were calculated. According to this calculations as well as to the published data on utilisation coefficients and to the results of a great number of bird censuse, the amount of energy consumpted by all birds of western part of the White Sea during the year is equal 3.25*10^10 to 4.22*10^10 kJ, or 1.4*10^6 to 1.8*10^6 kJ/km^2/year. The weight and caloric proportions between different kinds of food in the diet of studied bird species were determined on the basis of analysis of gizzard and oesophagus contents. These data were used for calculation of the amount of each kind of food consumpted by all birds per year.

A great number of independent parameters was used for microhabitat description of the territories of 147 males. Males with conspicuous plumage appeard to prefer more opened forest patches than pale ones did. According to multiple regression and stepwise selection, the major factors were the size of glade and the density of plant cover (trunks, brunches and bushes) just in front of the nest hole.

Daily energy budgets (DEB) of paired males and females and DEB of single birds were calculated from time budgets. Average number of nestlings in the nests of paired and single parents were 5.1 (n=8) and 4.8 (n=5) respectively. Single birds fed the 6 to 12 day nestlings as both of the paired birds did (n=17.9, s.e.=1.6 and n=19.1, s.e.=1.0 visits per h, respectively). In spite of that, DEB of single parent (57.7 kJ/day) was not essentially larger than that of paired male (56.7 kJ/day) and female (54.7 kJ/day). The productive energy for feeding one nestling in single bird was equal to 3.0 kJ/day and the same in the paired birds (male and female in average) was equal to 3.6 kJ/day.

At the same time, their behavioral pattern was different. The metronome timing of 56 bachelor males was carried out. The level of energy expenditures for each male in the daytime (without cost of thermoregulation) was calculated from the time budget using converting coefficients (Dolnik 1980). The rate of energy expenditure was found to be higher in cryptically colored males (V-VII grades by Drost’s scale) than in conspicuous ones (II-III grades) (2.5*BMR and 2.1*BMR, correspondingly) mainly due to the heavier time expenses for flight activities (12% aganst 7.8% in conspicuous males).

To compare the cost of their advertising strategies, we provided metronomic timekeeping of 56 free-living bachelor males (178 hours) in the Moscow region from late April to early June. The daily energy budget (DEB) of each male was calculated from its time budget by converting coefficients according to the method by Dolnik (1982). The average DEB was 2.67 BMR (range 2.11-3.68). Among males of all phenotypes, DEB was maximal in late April and early May. In some birds, it was close to the level of “maximal potential energy”. DEB declined to the end of pre-breeding period due to decreasing cost of both thermoregulation and behaviour itself. After the median date of egg-laying, DEB of bachelor males was similar to the level of “existence energy”. The average singing intensity was close in males of different phenotypes. At the same time, the style of behaviour of these males was different...
