Does water quality matter? Foraging activity of Daubenton’s bat (Myotis daubentonii) over three lakes with different trophy by Małgorzata Strzałka, Katarzyna Kozakiewicz, Postawa Tomasz

“…Our results indicate that the differences in the foraging activity of the bats in the present study do not depend on the trophic status of the lake and are linked directly to opportunistic foraging strategy of the species. The higher foraging activity recorded over the small dystrophic lake may be explained by the isolation of this lake from adverse weather conditions (e.g. wind). …”
