What is it about?
By means of video photography, we quantified the foraging behaviour of diving birds and their level of exposser to kleptoparasitic attacks

Why is it important?
This paper assumes a significance that for the first time in a field study, we used the videographic technique to estimate the prey size against bill length as a reference.
Perspectives
This comparative study confirms that the body size of diving speceis strongly determines its foraging attributes and trophic adaptations.
