“…Based on knowledge of Western Screech-Owl behaviour (non-migratory and territorial year round), high turnover rates were not anticipated. My results were similar to those reported by Galeotti and Sacchi (2001), with an annual survival o f 59% in suburban areas and 55% in rural areas (Gehlbach, 1994), and 61-67% annual survival for all adults in northern Idaho (Van Camp and Henny, 1975).…”

“…Some authors have suggested that the performance of alternative morphs is associated with climatic variables. In the screech (Otus asio) and tawny (Strix aluco) owls, the proportion of red individuals decreased after a harsh winter (Van Camp and Henny 1975;Galeotti and Cesaris 1996), maybe because rufous and grey individuals differ in their ability to thermoregulate (Mosher and Henny 1976). Morph-dependent thermo-regulation may explain why, in a cross-fostering experiment, foster nestlings were heavier when their foster and biological mothers were redder .…”

Oxygen consumption in offspring tawny owls Strix aluco is associated with colour morph of foster mother

In several colour polymorphic species, morphs differ in thermoregulation either because dark and pale surfaces absorb solar radiation to a different extent and/or because morphs differ in key metabolic processes. Morph-specific thermoregulation may potentially account for the observation that differently coloured individuals are frequently not randomly distributed among habitats, and differ in many respects, including behaviour, morphology, survival and reproductive success. In a wild population of the colour polymorphic tawny owl Strix aluco, a recent crossfostering experiment showed that offspring raised and born from red mothers were heavier than those from grey mothers. In the present study, we tested in the same individuals whether these morph-specific offspring growth patterns were associated with a difference in metabolic rate between offspring of red and grey mothers. For this purpose, we measured nestling oxygen consumption under two different temperatures (laboratory measurements: 4 and 20°C), and examined the relationships between these data sets and the colour morph of foster and biological mothers. After controlling for nestling body mass, oxygen consumption at 20°C was greater in foster offspring raised by grey foster mothers. No relationship was found between nestling oxygen consumption and coloration of their biological mother. Therefore, our study indicates that in our experiment offspring raised by grey foster mothers showed not only a lower body mass than offspring raised by red foster mothers, but also consumed more oxygen under warm temperature. This further indicates that rearing conditions in nests of grey mothers were more stressful than in nests of red mothers.
