Impact of land cover and landfills on the breeding effect and nest occupancy of the white stork in Poland

Abstract Food wastes are among the factors with the greatest effects on animal populations. The white stork is among bird species that clearly profit from feeding at landfills, at least in Western Europe and North Africa. However, the rate and the consequences of this feeding are still unknown in th...
