Avian flight feathers have the unique advantages of lightweight and high strength, which play a key role in their flight capacity. In this article, the rachis of the bean goose's primary flight feather was used as the research object. Its compressive

Molt summary tables reveal the sequence and mode of flight-feather replacement and how these feathers are divided into independent replacement series. Tables for summarizing molt are relatively new, and the rules for generating them were first formal

This study intended to record a species of feather mite, Neopteronyssus bilineatus Mironov, 2003, (Arachnida: Pteronyssidae), from a grey-capped pygmy woodpecker, Yungipicus canicapillus (Blyth, 1845), in the Republic of Korea. Mite samples were coll

Environmental conditions, including weather, influence organisms in a variety of ways. Specifically, animal males and females might be affected differently by ambient temperatures that vary in time and space. In this study, we explored the effect of

Scoring moult from live birds in the hand takes time, thereby increasing the handling stress to the birds. We show that digital photography can be used to efficiently study moult extent across multiple feather tracts. We photographed the upper wings

Amur Falcons Falco amurensis undergo one of the most extreme migrations of any raptor, crossing the Indian Ocean between their Asian breeding grounds and non-breeding areas in southern Africa. Adults are thought to replace all their flight feathers o
