“…Our results con rm the important role played by the Atlas Mountains for wintering ring ouzels (Glutz von Blotzheim and Bauer 1988;Ryall and Briggs 2006;Sim et al 2015): two thirds of our birds spent the cold season in Maghreb. The remaining third overwintered in the Iberian Peninsula, suggesting that Spanish mountain ranges may represent another, so far unrecognized key wintering hotspot, at least for the Alpine population.…”

“…Hence, the few sudden movements we could document in winter may correspond to relocations to regions providing good food supplies. An ability to move between feeding areas could make ring ouzels somehow resilient to the progressive loss of their foraging habitat in the Maghreb, notably in Morocco where juniper forests are systematically overexploited for rewood (Ryall and Briggs 2006). Finally, we also evidenced complex patterns of elevational movements.…”
