Summary

This dataset contains information on activity parameters obtained from automated radiotelemetry data collected on individual birds of six passerine species (European robin, Eurasian blackbird, great tit, blue tit, dunnock, common chaffinch). Birds were caught via mistnetting at 4 sites along a 35 km urban gradient in Glasgow, Scotland, in autumn and winter of two years: 2020 and 2021. Once tagged, each bird was monitored for approximately 3-4 weeks. Raw telemetry data was processed and analysed in order to extract activity traits. The activity traits were: onset of morning activity, end of evening activity, total amount of daily activity. Data were collected to investigate the effects of urbanisation on daily activity patterns, reproductive traits and population dynamics of passerine birds.
