Food restriction decreases thermoregulation in the silky starling Sturnus sericeus (Aves: Passeriformes)
The capacity of small birds to sustain periods of food shortage largely depends on their ability to adaptively regulate expenditure in response to reduced food supply. To investigate changes in thermoregulation during periods of food restriction, we measured changes in the body mass, basal metabolic...
