Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book analyzes the feeding ecology of eight bird species that breed on a tropical oceanic island, comparing their diets and feeding habits. The author spent time on a remote island in the Pacific Ocean, handling thousands of birds to collect regurgitated food samples. The analysis of these samples sheds light on the competition for food among these seabirds, revealing how they have evolved different strategies to avoid direct competition. The book also explores the relationship between the food available and the timing of breeding, incubation and feeding of chicks. By examining the diets of these seabirds, the author provides insights into the wider ecosystem of the central equatorial Pacific Ocean and the critical role of these birds within it. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.…
