- Statement
- Automated bird feeders were used to collect the described data. Each of the feeders had one access hole with a clear flap and an inbuilt Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) antenna within the perch. All birds equipped with a Passive Integrated Transponder (PIT) tag that landed on the perch got recorded, and the time and date of visits stored on a Secure Digital (SD) card. The flap can be programmed to open only for specified PIT tagged individuals. This allowed us to manipulate local densities by specifically restricting access to each feeder. Feeders were visited every two to three days, to refill food, check feeder performance and collect data. For the final dataset, erroneous recordings (e.g. entries with a wrong date or tag number) were removed. Data are provided as comma separated value files for deposit into the EIDC.
