“…For example, Yom-Tov & Geffen (2006) concluded that IBP in altricial birds evolved directly from a nonparasitic ancestor, rather than indirectly through some other form of parasitism. In contrast, within the Anatidae, transitions to IBP (both facultative and obligate) are significantly greater on branches of the phylogeny on which CBP occurs (Beauchamp 1998; and see Lyon & Eadie 2000, figure 1). Several analytical models provide further support for the hypothesis that CBP could be a stepping stone to the evolution of obligate IBP (Cichon 1996, Robert & Sorci 2001, Yamauchi 1995.…”

“…Hamilton & Orians (1965) first suggested that interspecific brood parasitism (IBP) evolved through a transitional phase whereby females subject to nest loss laid eggs in a conspecific nest (see also Payne 1977); more recently the idea that CBP could serve as an evolutionary stepping stone to IBP was generalized to include mechanisms other than nest loss (Lyon & Eadie 1991). Recent comparative analyses provide mixed support for this hypothesis (Beauchamp 1998, Poiani 1998, Yom-Tov & Geffen 2006. For example, Yom-Tov & Geffen (2006) concluded that IBP in altricial birds evolved directly from a nonparasitic ancestor, rather than indirectly through some other form of parasitism.…”

Conspecific brood parasitism (CBP), whereby females lay eggs in the nests of other conspecifics, occurs in over 200 species of birds. As an alternative tactic to typical nesting, CBP expands and enriches the classic avian clutch size problem. It is an integral component of a flexible life-history strategy and, consequently, many intriguing aspects of this behavior-adaptive benefits to parasites, host-parasite interactions, population and evolutionary dynamics-can be understood best from a life-history perspective. Because parasite fitness depends on hosts, yet parasitism potentially reduces host fitness, CBP offers a novel opportunity to explore conflicts of interest within species. The intersection of life-history evolution, conflicts of interest, and frequency-dependent fitness provides much scope for theoretical exploration, and recent models indicate a complex range of evolutionary dynamics is possible, including consequences of CBP for population dynamics and conservation. CBP may also be a macroevolutionary stepping stone to diverse breeding systems.

“…Just as in this study, hybridisation between a swan and a goose is extremely rare (McCarthy 2006), and it might be that it only occurs after cross-fostering. Cross-fostering during natural conditions can occur either by a pair taking over a nest, where a female already has started to lay (Fabricius 1983) or by brood amalgamation (Eadie et al 1988, Beauchamp 1998, Randler 2005. Evidences of these behaviours are few from the area covered by this study.…”

Spectacular increases in range and numbers of some swan and goose species around the Baltic Sea have resulted in more contacts between species and facilitated mixed breeding. Records of mixed breeding and observations during the non-breeding season of mixed families, mixed pairs and hybrids in which at least one of the parent species was a swan were compiled for Sweden, Finland, Leningrad and Kaliningrad Regions of Russia, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Germany and Denmark. There were twelve records of mixed breeding, nine of Mute Swan × Whooper Swan and one each of Mute Swan × Greylag Goose, Mute Swan × Greater Canada Goose and Whooper Swan × Bewick’s Swan. Excluding the two cases involving a goose and two cases involving swans with captive background, there were eight breeding records in the wild. Seven of these can be explained by range expansions. The exception was a case where the identification of the male was unsure.

“…Canada Geese are larger than Greylag Geese, and while they display greater levels of intraspecies aggression at nest sites, attacks on Greylag Geese do occur, with evidence suggesting that they can prevent their nesting (Fabricius et al, 1974). This could be due to Greylag Geese performing both inter-and intraspecies nest parasitism (Beauchamp, 1998;Ottenburghs et al, 2016). In an experiment, 14% of male Greylag Geese raised by Canada Geese imprinted on them for life, later choosing them as mates (Fabricius, 1991).…”

Invasive birds: global trends and impacts

2020

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

This 381-paged book covers the biology, ecology, impact and management of 34 common alien invasive species, with reviews on the history and context of avian introductions and invasions in five major regions (Oceania, Africa, Europe (including the Middle East, Asia and South America)), as well as management challenges and the potential of citizen science for monitoring alien birds. The book pitches at the introductory level and is ideal for readers to gain a quick and comprehensive view of the current status of global avian invasions. It has brought the records and research of avian invasion one step ahead of other alien invasive animal taxa. Many chapters contain distribution maps and data tables on the diet and morphology of the species, providing a good reference for the species and its management issues. Each chapter also contains a rich list of references that could help readers dive further into the topic.
