Foraging efficiencies and species' distributions : an explanation of the Hadeda ibis (Bostrychia hagedash) in relation to soil moisture

The influence of soil moisture on the foraging time needed to meet BMR (foraging efficiency) in hadedas was explored in Cape Town, South Africa. This was done by monitoring hadedas foraging and recording the prey items eaten successfully per minute on soils of different moisture. BMR was calculated...
