During the brooding period adult birds have to deliver more than 180 kJ per visit to the nest vs. less than 170 kJ during the rest of the nesting period. It seems likely that the parental ability to deliver large quantities of food per visit affects the duration of the brooding period and therefore also affects growth rates of Wilson's storm petrel chicks and the duration of their nesting period.}, type={Article}, title={The food demand in the nest of Wilson's storm petrel}, URL={http://www.czasopisma.pan.pl/Content/110670/PDF-MASTER/ppr24-127.pdf}, keywords={Antarctic, birds, Wilson's storm petrel}, }
