Time and energy costs of different foraging choices in an avian generalist species

Time and energy costs of different foraging choices in an avian generalist species

Abstract Background Animals can obtain a higher foraging yield by optimizing energy expenditure or minimizing time costs. In this study, we assessed how individual variation in the relative use of marine and terrestrial foraging habitats relates to differences in the energy and time investments of a...
