• Novel seasonal land cover associations for eastern North American forest birds identified through dynamic species distribution modelling (2016, background): “…and as a result, it is has been hypothesized that many of these species are capable of innovative and flexible behaviour (e.g., use of novel food items) allowing them to take advantage of a wider suite of resources and vegetation types than migrants (Sol et al., 2005; Overington et al., 2011).”
• Problem-solving performance is correlated with reproductive success in a wild bird population (2013, background): “Exploration behaviour, a correlate of problemsolving in other birds (carib grackles, Quiscalus lugubris: Overington et al. 2011b; Indian mynahs, Acridotheres tristis: Sol et al. 2011), has been shown to be heritable in wild great tits (Dingemanse et al. 2002).”
