The diet, growth and survival of Razorbill Alca torda chicks in the southern Barents Sea
Over 32 years (1981–2013), Razorbills Alca torda breeding at Hornøya, NE Norway fed their chicks on capelin Mallotus villosus, sandeels Ammodytes spp. and, sometimes, I-group herring Clupea harengus. It seems that Razorbills are opportunistic and feed their chicks the youngest stages of herring in y...
