“…This specific protocol, in combination with the high tolerance of nesting albatrosses to disturbance (Wheeler et al 2009), probably explains why we did not find any effect of our blood sampling protocol on fledging success. However, the result may be different during incubation, when birds are more prone to desert the nest (Rodway et al 1996;Blackmer et al 2004). Importantly, we did not find any effect of our protocol on fledging success of inexperienced birds (question 4), even though they are the most likely to desert their nest under poor environmental conditions (Angelier et al 2007b;Nevoux et al 2007).…”

“…In recent years, attention has increasingly been focused on so-called avoidance behavior (Cameron et al, 1979(Cameron et al, , 1992(Cameron et al, , 1995Nellemann, 1997;Nellemann and Cameron, 1998). Wildlife may travel through zones of development, but greatly reduce their use of areas within or near sources of disturbance, thereby reducing optimal foraging or fledging success or increasing risks of predation (Hockin et al, 1992;Reijnen et al, 1995;Cameron and Ver Hoef, 1996;Rodway et al, 1996;Fox and Madsen, 1997;Lord et al, 1997;Verlinden, 1997).…”

“…It is one of the most abundant seabirds breeding in northeast Britain (Harris & Wanless 2004) yet a recent review of data relevant to the foraging ranges of British seabirds revealed that less is known of the feeding areas used by Puffins than by most other species and more information is urgently needed (Thaxter et al 2012). One reason for this knowledge gap is that Puffins are sensitive to disturbance, particularly handling (Wernham 1993, Rodway et al 1996, Harris & Wanless 2011 and, like the Tufted Puffin F. cirrhata (Whidden et al 2007), seem intolerant of back-mounted devices (pers obs). However, extensive areas within the likely foraging range of Puffins at many of the major colonies in Scotland have recently been designated as potential sites for the generation of wave, tidal or wind energy (Crown Estate 2012).…”
