Mechanisms and fitness effects of interspecific information use between migrant and resident birds (2007, background): “Many other migrants aggregate with resident birds during the breeding period, and both foraging benefits (Mönkkönen et al. 1996) and predator protection (Forsman, Mönkkönen, Inkeröinen, and Reunanen 1998; Forsman and Mönkkönen 2001) have been suggested.”
A mutual understanding? Interspecific responses by birds to each other's aerial alarm calls (2007, background): “Their alarms are high pitched but in other respects differ from the classic seeet aerial alarm call described for several European and North American passerines (Marler 1955; Ficken and Witkin 1977 ).”
Heterospecific attraction among forest birds: a review (2002, background): “Second, birds are able to recognize vocalizations of heterospecific individuals, e.g. song (Mönkkönen et al. 1996) and warning calls (Forsman & Mönkkönen 2001; Gunn et al. 2000), and therefore birds can make use of information delivered by other individuals.”
Fear factor: prey habitat selection and its consequences in a predation risk landscape (2006, background): “However, the unimodal passerine density pattern relative to distance from sparrowhawk nests (Forsman and Mönkkönen 2001b), and the decreased predation of artificial nests close to the similar goshawk (Mönkkönen et al. 2000), suggests that sparrowhawks may indeed provide a protective umbrella…”
Reed warblers discriminate cuckoos from sparrowhawks with graded alarm signals that attract mates and neighbours (2008, background): “Because mobbing signals may actually attract enemies (Carter 1986; McLean et al. 1986; Wiley 1988; Krama & Krams 2005) and are costly in terms of time and effort that could have been spent on other fitness-enhancing activities (Curio & Regelman 1985; Forsman & Monkkonen 2001 ), birds should adjust ”
Comparative Permeability of Roads, Rivers, and Meadows to Songbirds in Banff National Park (2003, background): “Birds of many species respond to this call (Hurd 1996), although their responsiveness may vary with perceived predation risk (Forsman & Mönkkönen 2001).”
Predators and the breeding bird: behavioral and reproductive flexibility under the risk of predation (2009, background): “…substantial reproductive advantage; the precise mechanism underlying this advantage was not identified (see also Seppänen, Mönkkönen & Forsman, 2005; Forsman et al., 2007), but heterospecific neighbours are frequent mobbing partners during encounters with predators (Forsman & Mönkkönen, 2001).”
