great reed warbler song

The relationship between song repertoire size and reproductive success was investigated in a population of great reed warblers breeding in southern Germany.

Wir fanden jedoch heraus, dass weder das Sing-Verhalten der Männchen, noch auffällige Gesangsmuster signifikante Prädiktoren für Parasitismus waren. Academic Press, New York, Leniowski K, Węgrzyn E (2013) Organization, variation in time, and impacting factors in the song strophe repertoire in the Great Reed Warbler (Acrocephalus arundinaceus). Since these song structures are of low frequency and thus might be audible at longer distances, we predicted that males producing more kara syllables or uttering kara syllables of lower peak frequencies would also be more parasitized. Ornis Scand 20:71–73, Robinson WD, Robinson TS (2001) Is host activity necessary to elicit brood parasitism by Cowbirds? Unsere Ergebnisse legen nahe, dass Kuckucks-Weibchen die Nest-Sichtbarkeit oder aber Verhaltensweisen der Wirte, die nichts mit dem Gesang der Männchen zu tun haben, als Mittel benutzen, Nester von Wirten zu finden. Hierfür beobachteten wir die Wirts-Männchen und quantifizierten ihre mit dem Singen verknüpften Verhaltenselemente, inklusive der mit Singen verbrachten Zeit, ihrer räumlichen Bewegungsmuster und der Zeit, die sie singend in ganz bestimmten Körperstellungen an einem Schilfhalm zubrachten. The great reed warbler is a partial polygynist, and through evolutionary compromise has evolved a variable song structure which can be shortened for territorial defence, and lengthened for mate attraction. We predicted that nests of more exposed males (i.e., those spending more time singing, moving a larger total distance, and spending more time on the top of stems) would be more likely to be parasitized than the nests of less exposed males. Short songs consisted of relatively few, stereo-typed, low-amplitude syllables, and were given by males during territorial encounters with rival males. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10336-017-1466-3, DOI: https://doi.org/10.1007/s10336-017-1466-3, Over 10 million scientific documents at your fingertips, Not logged in Observation of prey collection specifically during breeding season has shown the retrieval of insect larvae, moths, dragonflies, damselflies, beetles, spiders, small fish, and frogs.
