Is What Comes out the Same as What Goes in? A Preliminary Investigation of the Isotopic Impacts of Digestion by Red‐Tailed Hawks (Buteo jamaicensis) and Eurasian Eagle Owls (Bubo bubo)

ABSTRACT We investigated isotopic diet‐excreta offset (Δdiet‐excreta) for predatory birds, and the isotopic influence of bird digestion on consumed prey tissues. Foraging ecology of predatory birds can be non‐invasively monitored using excreta or regurgitated prey. However, one must account for Δdie...
