The osprey / Tim Mackrill (2024)  

Public ISBD Titre : The osprey Type de document : livre Auteurs : Tim Mackrill, Auteur Mention d'édition : 1st ed. Editeur : London : T. & A.D. Poyser Année de publication : 2024 Importance : 304 p. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-1-4729-9261-1 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Birds  Predators  Migration  Behaviour Résumé : Le site éditeur indique : A highly readable Poyser monograph on one of the most widespread raptors. The Osprey is a large, fish-eating bird of prey. Distinctively marked in deep brown and white, with a piercing yellow eye and powerful hooked bill, the Osprey snatches its prey in spectacular swoops above lakes and wetlands around the world – it is one of the most widespread of all birds. Persecuted mercilessly in Britain, it became extinct in the 1890s before returning to the famous Loch Garten in Scotland in the 1950s. The return of the bird has been slow, but reintroduction programmes elsewhere – notably at Rutland Water – have been successful, and this remarkable raptor is an increasingly common sight in our skies. This Poyser monograph is dedicated to this fine species and includes more than 150 colour photographs. The Osprey looks at the distribution, foraging ecology, migration, breeding behaviour and population dynamics of this spectacular bird, with emphasis placed on conservation efforts both in Britain and in the species' African haunts, which have been discovered only very recently thanks to advances in satellite tagging technology.

Avian survivors: the history and biogeography of Palearctic birds / Clive Finlayson (2011)  

Public ISBD Titre : Avian survivors: the history and biogeography of Palearctic birds Type de document : livre Auteurs : Clive Finlayson, Auteur Editeur : London : T. & A.D. Poyser Année de publication : 2011 Collection : Poyser monographs Importance : 304 p.

In this book, Finlayson shows that the avifauna of the Palearctic long predates the glaciations of the last two million years, and had established itself gradually during the turbulent times of the Miocene and Pliocene, the lifting of Tibet and the drying of the continents having a major influence on these birds.

Poyser Année de publication : 2002 Importance : 884 p. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-0-7136-6514-7 Note générale : Published for British Trust for Ornithology (BTO) Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Migration  Birds  Great Britain  Ireland Résumé : Le site éditeur indique : This landmark publication presents the most up-to-date information on bird migration, using the vast wealth of data that the British Trust for Ornithology (BTO) have collected from ringing recoveries. Since the ringing programme began in 1909, there have been around half a million recoveries of birds ringed in the UK and the data yielded has enabled the BTO to build up a picture of the movements of around 200 migratory species. This volume details the ringing scheme, migration ecology and study methods and contains detailed texts for individual species, written by experts on their movement. It also critically examines the potential biases in the ringing-recovery informaton caused by ringing and finding circumstances.
