Title: | Observations on the Post-fledging Period of the Barn Owl 'Tyto alba' | Contributor(s): | Courtney, John (author); Debus, Stephen J S (author) | Publication Date: | 2006 | Handle Link: | https://hdl.handle.net/1959.11/3288 | Abstract: | Observations at a nest of the Barn Owl 'Tyto alba' in northern New South Wales revealed that juveniles were dependent and remained in the nest area for 3 weeks after fledging. Siblings stayed together into their second week out of the nest. Juveniles roosted in the nest area in the first two weeks and remote from the nest in the third week, and returned to the nest area at night to beg for food; they did not accompany their foraging parents at this stage. | Publication Type: | Journal Article | Source of Publication: | Australian Field Ornithology, 23(3), p. 159-162 | Publisher: | Bird Observers' Club of Australia | Place of Publication: | Australia | ISSN: | 1448-0107 | Fields of Research (FoR) 2008: | 060201 Behavioural Ecology | Socio-Economic Objective (SEO) 2008: | 960804 Farmland, Arable Cropland and Permanent Cropland Flora, Fauna and Biodiversity | Peer Reviewed: | Yes | HERDC Category Description: | C1 Refereed Article in a Scholarly Journal | Publisher/associated links: | http://search.informit.com.au/documentSummary;dn=307996735921077;res=IELHSS |
