Complex phenological changes and their consequences in the breeding success of a migratory bird, the white stork Ciconia ciconia
The timing of bird migration has shifted in response to climate change. However, few studies
have linked the potential consequences of any phenological shift on individual fitness and …

Nest size, nest building behaviour and breeding success in a species with nest reuse: the white stork Ciconia ciconia
Nest size and nest building behaviour affect individual fitness and thus, selection may act on
these traits. Most data on nesting behaviour come from species that build a nest for each …
