  • This dataset contains information on reproductive events of blue and great tits recorded by manually inspecting approximately 300 to 500 nestboxes annually along a 35 km urban gradient in and around Glasgow, Scotland from 2014 to 2022. The datasets contain annually aggregated values per nestbox on clutch initiation, clutch size, number of hatchlings and fledglings. Data were collected to investigate the effects of urbanisation on daily activity patterns, reproductive traits and population dynamics of passerine birds.

  • This dataset contains information on individual birds caught at nestboxes or via mistnetting at 20 sites along a 35 km urban gradient in Glasgow, Scotland, 2014-2022. For each capture, we recorded the ring number of the individual, morphological parameters, whether samples were obtained and the sample number (blood, feather, faeces). The morphological measurements obtained were: Wing length (total length of the stretched wing, as per BTO guidelines), Weight (to the nearest 0.01 g), Tarsus length (using a caliper with 0.1 cm precision). Data were collected to investigate the effects of urbanisation on daily activity patterns, reproductive traits and population dynamics of passerine birds.
