| [temporal and spatial variation of shorebirds in barra de navidad lagoon, jalisco, during three non-breeding seasons]. | resident and migratory shorebirds inhabit different kinds of wetlands such as lagoons, rivers and seashores among others. in recent years, these areas have been importantly affected by urban, agriculture and touristic activities, such as the barra de navidad lagoon, for which little information is available to support conservation programs. the aim of this work was to describe shorebirds temporal and spatial distribution in barra de navidad lagoon during three non-breeding seasons (1999-2000, 20 ... | 2012 | 23025100 |
| diurnal and nocturnal visual capabilities in shorebirds as a function of their feeding strategies. | some shorebird species forage with the same feeding strategy at night and during daytime, e.g. visual pecking in the wilson's plover (charadrius wilsonia) or tactile probing in the short-billed dowitcher (limnodromus griseus). the american woodcock (scolopax minor) uses tactile probing, by day and by night, but sometimes pecks for insects during daytime. the black-winged stilt (himantopus himantopus) is a visual pecker, both by day and by night, and sometimes forages tactilely on windy (agitated ... | 1999 | 9858803 |
