Contribution of research to conservation action for the Northern Bald Ibis Geronticus eremita in Morocco
TLDR
The recovery in the Souss-Massa region remains precarious because the population is concentrated in a few places where adverse changes are possible, however, it could provide opportunities for natural extension of the range to formerly occupied sites further north in Morocco.

The race to prevent the extinction of South Asian vultures
TLDR
It may be some years before diclofenac is removed from the vultures' food supply, and captive populations of three vulture species have been established to provide sources of birds for future reintroduction programmes.

The status and recent breeding performance of the critically endangered Northern Bald Ibis Geronticus eremita population on the Atlantic coast of Morocco
TLDR
It is suggested that coastal fogs in this region may buffer the adverse impacts of low rainfall and may in part account for the year-round residency of the birds.

Influence of feeding ecology on breeding success of a semi-wild population of the critically endangered Northern Bald Ibis Geronticus eremita in southern Turkey
TLDR
It is speculated that selection of highly suitable wild foraging habitat such as mint crops or fields covered in manure allows the Northern Bald Ibis to raise more fledglings than exclusive reliance on supplementary food provided at the breeding station.

Selection of Foraging Habitats by Woodlarks (Lullula arborea) Nesting in Pine Plantations
TLDR
It is suggested that woodlarks prefer bare ground and short vegetation because at these sites they can forage by walking for invertebrate food for their young there and because the preferred vegetation is mixed intimately with much other unsuitable tall vegetation, breeding woodlark need a large home range.

High variation reduces the value of feather stable isotope ratios in identifying new wintering areas for aquatic warblers Acrocephalus paludicola in West Africa
TLDR
The large within-site variability of feather isotope ratios of a habitat specialist species like the aquatic warbler indicates that using feathers of known origin by trying to establish isotopic gradients across sub-Saharan West Africa may not be an efficient tool in identifying wintering areas of Palaearctic African migrants.
