Nestling carcasses from colonially breeding wading birds: patterns of access and energetic relevance for a vertebrate scavenger community

Energy transfer is fundamental to ecosystem processes, affecting productivity and community structure. Large aggregations of colonially breeding birds are known as nutrient sources through deposition of feces, but also may deposit large quantities of energy in the form of dead nestlings. The magnitu...
