metadata.value: The rapid growth of cities causes behaviour changes in birds in response to
  urban environmental factors. The avian response to human disturbance has
  recently been studied by a non-invasive research tool as an alert distance (AD)
  and a flight initiation distance (FID) assessment. The tolerance of hooded crows
  (n = 395), jackdaws (n = 394) and rooks (n = 169) to humans was assessed by AD
  and FID. It was shown that the FID of all species is maximal during the summer,
  when the parents send clear “danger — fly away” signals to the young and the
  birds fly away. The AD and FID of the three species reliably correlates with the
  season. Rooks showed FID species-specificity in seven cities of Eastern Europe.
  Comparison of the attitude of birds to people in cities that have similarities in
  human culture showed that tolerance increases with increasing latitude in all
  species and is statistically significant only in the jackdaw. This should be taken
  into account in environmental protection measures.
