Video cameras on wild birds.

چکیده
New Caledonian crows (Corvus moneduloides) are renowned for using tools for extractive foraging, but the ecological context of this unusual behavior is largely unknown. We developed miniaturized, animal-borne video cameras to record the undisturbed behavior and foraging ecology of wild, free-ranging crows. Our video recordings enabled an estimate of the species' natural foraging efficiency and revealed that tool use, and choice of tool materials, are more diverse than previously thought. Video tracking has potential for studying the behavior and ecology of many other bird species that are shy or live in inaccessible habitats.

Activity profiles and hook-tool use of New Caledonian crows recorded by bird-borne video cameras
New Caledonian crows are renowned for their unusually sophisticated tool behaviour. Despite decades of fieldwork, however, very little is known about how they make and use their foraging tools in the wild, which is largely owing to the difficulties in observing these shy forest birds. To obtain first estimates of activity budgets, as well as close-up observations of tool-assisted foraging, we e...

People re-identification is one of the most important and fundamental processes in video surveillance systems. The accuracy and efficiency of this task influence the effectiveness of the subsequent processes. Event detection and behavior analysis are instances of such subsequent processes that are classified in semantic levels. In people re-identification, having an image or video of an individ...
متن کاملSocial Interactions of Juvenile Brown Boobies at Sea as Observed with Animal-Borne Video Cameras
While social interactions play a crucial role on the development of young individuals, those of highly mobile juvenile birds in inaccessible environments are difficult to observe. In this study, we deployed miniaturised video recorders on juvenile brown boobies Sula leucogaster, which had been hand-fed beginning a few days after hatching, to examine how social interactions between tagged juveni...
