Time of breeding and female condition affect chick-growth in the Chilean Swallow (Tachycineta meyeni)
(Taylor & Francis, 2012-05)
We analysed growth of nestling Chilean Swallows (Tachycineta meyeni) over four consecutive breeding seasons and determined the factors that explain variation in growth rate, asymptotic body mass and length of the nestling ...
Extreme use of feathers for nest construction by the Chilean Swallow (Tachycineta leucopyga) in the sub-Antarctic forests of southern Chile
