Global change affects differently at local scales animal populations: why Starlings still expands to the south while other temperate species go to the north?

The paper examines why European starlings expand southward while other temperate birds move northward in response to global warming, focusing on differences in reproductive timing and distribution shifts.

Habituation, task solving and memorization may facilitate biological invasions: the Starling example

This study examines how habituation, task solving, and memorization in European starlings may enhance their ability to invade new environments.

Population colonization history influences behavioral responses of European starlings in personality tests

This study examines how colonization history affects behavioral responses to novelty in European starlings, finding differences in anxiety and boldness among rural, urban, and migratory populations.

SOCIAL INFORMATION AND BIOLOGICAL INVASIONS: CHORUS SONGS ARE MORE ATTRACTIVE TO EUROPEAN STARLINGS IN MORE RECENTLY ESTABLISHED POPULATIONS.

The paper tests if recently established European starling populations are more responsive to social cues like chorus songs than long-established ones, finding they react more strongly to acoustic stimuli.
