Data exploration on diet, and composition, energy value and functional division of prey items ingested by White Storks Ciconia ciconia in south-western Poland: Dietary variation due to land cover, reproductive output and colonial breeding
Abstract:The dataset presented in this data paper supports "Linking land cover satellite data with dietary variation and reproductive output in an opportunistic forager: Arable land use can boost an ontogenetic trophic bottleneck in the White Stork Ciconia ciconia" (Orłowski et al. 2019) [1]. Analysis of data on diet and prey composition based on an investigation of 165 pellets of White Storks Ciconia ciconia sampled from 52 nests showed that their diet was based primarily on ‘eurytopic prey’ (embracing taxa from grass… Show more
