Still Waters Posted September 18, 2018 #1 Share Posted September 18, 2018 Noticing that songbirds, such as finches, never seem to get fat despite overeating at bird feeders, London environmental biologist Lewis Halsey wondered whether the amount of energy birds put into singing, fidgeting, or exercising could be adjusted in ways that regulate weight. In a literature review published September 18 in the journal Trends in Ecology & Evolution, he explores whether songbirds don't need to worry about their calorie counts because they can control the way their bodies use energy. https://phys.org/news/2018-09-explores-birds-slim-overeat.html 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
