Title

STUDIES ON ACTIVITY PATTERN OF FORAGING BEHAVIOUR BY GREATER FLAMINGO ACROSS DIFFERENT SEASONS IN POINT CALIMERE WILDLIFE SANCTUARY, TAMILNADU, SOUTHERN INDIA.

Abstract

ABSTRACT To investigate the foraging ecology of Greater Flamingo in the swamp by documenting their food items, method of foraging, food preferences and prey characteristics influencing their use by the Flamingos. Totally 47 species of waterbirds were recorded among them the feeding method of flamingos is characteristic and peculiar. The seasonal variation on the time spent on probing, beak out, vigilance, walking and aggressiveness showed significant variations. No difference was observed between adult and sub adult in any of the behaviours. The percent time spent on probing, beak out and vigilance showed significant difference in relation to the type of feeding method adapted by the individual Greater Flamingoes. The percent time spent on beak out and fight showed significant variations among the flock sizes. The percent time spent on beak out and preening feather showed significant difference between habitats. The percent time spent on probing, beak out and vigilance, preening feather, preening neck and fight showed significant difference among different seasons.
