This paper investigates, through experiments using surrogate predators, differences in intraspecific alarm calls between familiar and unfamiliar Bronze Mannikin Spermestes cucculatus groups. Four groups of mannikins were captured with mist nets from

Bronze Mannikins Lonchura cucullata form flocks of up to 30 birds at the end of the breeding season and huddle in communal nests during winter. Assuming there are thermoregulatory benefits associated with huddling for these small endotherms, particul

The various phases of the reproductive behaviour of the Bronze Mannikin are described in detail and discussed. This species possesses rather specialised fighting patterns which are different from those of the other Estrildine Finches. In an all-out a

Abstract We describe foraging behaviour and time budgets of the gregarious bronze mannikin, Lonchura cucullata. In addition to being the first such study of a southern African granivore, this was the first study of a group-forager to differentiate be

Birds with a small body size have a high surface area to volume ratio, and this means that they have a high rate of heat loss to the environment. Birds may employ behavioural strategies in order to counter this heat loss. The adjustment of feeding pa
