“…Rather, social stimuli, and specifically the presence of affiliated individuals and individuals of similar levels on the dominance hierarchy, were associated with higher individual‐level calling rates. Together with other studies on Swinhoe's White‐eyes (Meaux, He, et al, 2021; Meaux, Peabotuwage, et al, 2021), these findings suggest that changes in contact call rate in this species are more influenced by social context than by environmental conditions. Below, we discuss in detail the effects of vegetation density, and then the effects of group size and group composition on the different call types.…”

“…The result is consistent with our work in the field. There, aspects of vegetation density explained only 2% of the variation in the group‐level contact call, which was rather related to movement, specifically increasing before peripheral birds flew into the center of the group (Meaux, Peabotuwage, et al, 2021). The conclusion of the field study was that call rate did not convey information on environmental conditions when both signaller and receiver were relatively close together, although it might function as a recruitment call (see e.g., Gall & Manser, 2017; Mahurin & Freeberg, 2009).…”
