摘要: In this paper we will describe three studies of European bee-eaters (Merops apiaster) delivering food to a central place. We discuss all in terms energy maximization, and so doing show how spite their superficial similarity the illustrate different problems faced by birds. Our success accounting for birds’ behavior energy-maximizing ranges from good poor.
