    Foraging, Fear and Behavioral Variation in a Traplining Hummingbird by Katarzyna Wojczulanis-Jakubas, Marcelo Araya-Salas

    Published 2023-06-01
    “…Here, we explored this mechanism by evaluating the foraging efficiency of long-billed hermit hummingbirds (<i>Phaethornis longirostris)</i> with regard to three behavioral traits: (a) exploration (number of feeders used during the foraging visit), (b) risk avoidance (latency to start feeding) and (c) arousal (amount of movements during the foraging visit) in conditions at two different levels of perceived risk (low—control and high—experimental, with a threatening bullet ant model). …”

The point of their comment is evidently to contest the fact that hummingbirds use capillary suction, so as to defend their claim to the contrary (3).…”
