Weight loss in incubating albatrosses and its implications for their energy and food requirements
Read more of: Weight loss in incubating albatrosses and its implications for their energy and food requirementsThe weight loss of incubating Black-browed Albatrosses (Diomedea melanophris) and Grey-headed Albatrosses (D. chrysostoma) was measured at Bird Island, South Georgia. The rate of weight loss did not differ significantly […]
