Daytime sleeping behavior observed in a Black-and-white Warbler during spring stopover
Nocturnally migrating birds experience loss of sleep during the migratory period especially when undertaking long, non-stop flights. We report a field observation of daytime sleeping behavior in a Black-andwhite Warbler (Mniotilta varia) during spring migration. It is likely that this individual was...

description |
Nocturnally migrating birds experience loss
of sleep during the migratory period especially when
undertaking long, non-stop flights. We report a field
observation of daytime sleeping behavior in a Black-andwhite
Warbler (Mniotilta varia) during spring migration. It
is likely that this individual was compensating from sleep
loss experienced during a trans-Gulf of Mexico flight.
Only a few observations of daytime sleeping behavior
have been reported in free-living migrants and all have
been associated with long-distance flights in relation to
ecological barriers. |
