A pale, medium-sized gull with a 'gentle' expression and bright yellow bill, the Kittiwake has been the subject of behavioural research since the late 1950s - one of the longest running studies in the world. In this Poyser Monograph, John Coulson summarises these decades of research, revealing amazing insights into the life of these gulls, with wider implications for the behavioural ecology of all colonial birds. There are sections on life at sea, nest-site selection, breeding biology, feeding ecology, colony dynamics, moult, survivorship and conservation. This book is essential for academics working on colonial species, and is also of great interest to birders who want to learn more about these elegant cliff-dwelling birds."--Bloomsbury Publishing. 410 0$aPoyser Monographs 606 $aKittiwakes 606 $2Birds (ornithology) 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aKittiwakes. 676 $a598.338 700 $aCoulson$b John$g(John C.)$0761611 801 0$bUtOrBLW 801 1$bUtOrBLW 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910457580403321 996 $aThe Kittiwake$92463452 997 $aUNINA LEADER 00988nam a2200265 i 4500 001 991000264519707536 008 040128s2003 it b 001 0 ita d 020 $a8840170111 035 $ab1259197x-39ule_inst 040 $aDip.to Scienze pedagogiche$bita 082 0 $a128 100 1 $aPalumbieri, Sabino$0481703 245 12$aL'uomo, questa meraviglia :$btrattato sulla costituzione antropologica /$cSabino Palumbieri 260 $aRoma :$bUrbaniana University Press,$c2003 300 $a414 p. ;$c24 cm 440 0$aManuali ;$v3 504 $aContiene bibliografia e indice dei nomi 650 4$aAntropologia filosofica 740 0 $aAntropologia filosofica ;$n1 907 $a.b1259197x$b21-09-06$c28-01-04 912 $a991000264519707536 945 $aLE022 128 PAL01.01$g1$i2022000107334$lle022$op$pE26.00$q-$rl$s- $t0$u0$v0$w0$x0$y.i13069986$z03-02-04 996 $aUomo, questa meraviglia$9277966 997 $aUNISALENTO 998 $ale022$b28-01-04$cm$da $e-$fita$git $h2$i0
