No “carry-over” effects of tracking devices on return rate and parameters determining reproductive success in once and repeatedly tagged common swifts (

HIGHLIGHTS

SUMMARY

    By comparing return rates, apparent survival, and breeding parameters in logger birds which were tagged once or repeatedly tagged with non-logger birds, the authors can assess whether this technique affects important parameters influencing reproduction. The authors compared these parameters in logger birds which carried a logger once or up to five times in different years about 9-10 months before returning to the breeding site with those in non-logger birds returning to the same breeding site in the same year. If loggers have an effect on apparent survival, the authors would expect . . .
