This paper reviews the use and the effects of marks and devices on birds. Although most papers reporting research on birds make use of marks or devices, very few studies test for harmful effects or data biases caused by these. Many research projects have used marks and devices without encountering any harmful effects of these…

To investigate migration strategy we have studied the visually observable fat deposits of Robins and Goldcrests and made calculations of flight distance capacity. High fat deposits found in Robins and Goldcrests after one night migrations to Ottenby suggest that these birds could migrate two or more nocturnal stages without refuelling. The long periods needed to…
Tracking devices are useful in studying the movement and behaviour of birds throughout the year. However, the effects of device attachment must be monitored for bird welfare and the scientific veracity of information gathered. We report on a trial of three different harness types (leg-loop, body and wing) for attaching GPS devices to Lesser Black-backed…
Repeatability is the consistency with which an observer measures a set of objects. This statistic can therefore be used both to assess observer performance and to detect changes in the size of the objects between measurements. These uses are described in the context of biometric studies of birds caught by ringers. A simple account is…
Bird ringing and other tracking technologies have the potential to be equal partners in ornithology, with the former being ideal for broad, large‐sample‐size approaches and the latter being more suitable for focused studies in much greater detail. Bird tracking methods such as radio tracking, satellite tracking, geolocator loggers, passive integrated transponders or even the use…
