• Predation in bird populations (2011, background): “A similar situation of greater expected lethal effects on bird populations for most preferred prey might also apply to situations where predators have a limited prey choice; for example, more linear trophic chains where the predator eats mostly one species of prey, such as the Hen Harrier Circus cya”
• Food for thought: supplementary feeding as a driver of ecological change in avian populations (2008, background): “…example, provisioning breeding hen harriers (Circus cyaneus, a raptor found in northern parts of Eurasia and North America) at the nest substantially reduced the number of red grouse (Lagopus lagopus scoticus) chicks delivered by harrier adults to feed their chicks (Redpath et al. 2001; Figure 3).”
• Roles of Raptors in a Changing World: From Flagships to Providers of Key Ecosystem Services (2016, background): “…(Thirgood et al., 2000b; 2000c), which results in annual commercial losses of ca. £100,000 (estimation for 1996; Redpath and Thirgood, 1997); and c) several sciencebased management measures, including diversionary feeding, could significantly reduce the conflict (e.g., Redpath et al., 2001).”
• Supplementary feeding as an effective tool for improving breeding success in the Spanish imperial eagle (Aquila adalberti) (2006, result): “Like the findings of other studies, (e.g., Hansen, 1987; Wiebe and Bortolotti, 1994; Gehlback and Roberts, 1997; Wiehn and Korpimäki, 1997; Redpath et al., 2001) our results show that supplementary feeding is effective in increasing breeding success, both in subadults and nonsubadults territories…”
