An original test to study the behavior of the pied flycatcher has been developed. The experimental arena can be used in field and laboratory study. It looks like a plus maze with a darkened central compartment, simulating an empty nesting box, and four entrances to the illuminated peripheral compartments of the arena. Birds demonstrate individual behavioral variability. They stay in the central compartment or leave it; make a different number of transitions between compartments and try to escape from the peripheral compartments through the transparent cover. Bird activity may depend on a number of factors, including the level of research activity and anxiety of individuals. This allows you to use this test to study the behavioral syndrome of the pied flycatcher.
