“…In wild-caught birds, the variation may have resulted from different individual experience. However, similar differences exist also among naive birds (Sillén-Tullberg 1985;Exnerová et al 2007;Svádová et al 2009) and among wild birds presented with novel food (Marples et al 1998(Marples et al , 2005.…”

“…Birds can have behavioural biases for signals, whether artificial symbols, colours or real prey [16,22,38,39]. When focusing on the effect of the surrounding prey community, signal efficacy of the models and mimic continuums is important: mimics that are all exceptionally efficient or poor warning signals might result in flat generalization curves irrespective of the prey community.…”

“…Previous experiments with naive, hand-reared birds demonstrated that great tits do not have any innate bias against red-and-black prey (Exnerová et al, 2007;Svádová et al, 2009) and that strong neophobia occurs only in some individuals depending on their personality (Exnerová et al, 2010). The avoidance of wild-caught birds is based on the individual learning, and could result either from experience with all the bug species used in the experiments, or, more likely, from experience with any unpalatable red-and-black species from the mimetic complex followed by subsequent wide generalization.…”
