Unravelling effects of fine-scale changes within wild-bird flocks on sociality

C. A. Troisi, J. A. Firth, S. J. Crofts, G. L. Davidson, M. S. Reichert, J. L. Quinn

This study examines how fine-scale changes in food distribution and social stability affect sociality in wild great tits, finding that resource clustering increases flock size and social centrality.

Individual variation in the avian gut microbiota: the influence of host state and environmental heterogeneity

S. E. Somers, G. L. Davidson, C. N. Johnson, M. S. Reichert, J. M. S. Crane, R. P. Ross, C. Stanton, J. L. Quinn

The study examines how the gut microbiota of wild great tits varies with age, environment, and life history traits, finding that nestlings show greater sensitivity to ecological variation than adults.

Inhibitory control, personality, and manipulated ecological conditions influence foraging plasticity in the great tit

J. R. Coomes, G. L. Davidson, M. S. Reichert, I. G. Kulahci, C. A. Troisi, J. L. Quinn

This study examines how inhibitory control and personality traits affect foraging plasticity in great tits under different ecological conditions.

A time-lagged association between the gut microbiome, nestling weight and nestling survival in wild great tits

G. L. Davidson, S. E. Somers, N. Wiley, C. N. Johnson, M. S. Reichert, R. P. Ross, C. Stanton, J. L. Quinn

The paper examines the relationship between gut microbiome composition, nestling weight, and survival in great tits, finding a time-lagged association between early microbiome diversity and later weight gain.

No evidence for cross-contextual consistency in spatial learning and behavioural flexibility in a passerine

C. A. Troisi, A. C. Cooke, G. L. Davidson, I. de la Hera, M. S. Reichert, J. L. Quinn

The paper tests cross-contextual consistency of spatial learning and behavioural flexibility in great tits and finds no correlation between different measures of these cognitive traits.
