Information on feeding behaviour of Javan myna (Acridotheres javanicus) was obtained by observing their
feeding activities for six days of sampling starting from November 2013 until February 2014. The study was
conducted by using visual observation which is focal sampling and scan sampling in Kuching City, Sarawak.
A total of 125 observations of focal sampling and 136 observations of scan sampling were recorded. The
feeding activities of A. javanicus were observed in three sessions for each day which include morning session
(0900-1200), afternoon session (1200-1500), and evening session (1500-1800). Both focal and scan sampling
recorded that the number of A. javanicus seen on ground searching for food during morning and evening
session was higher compared to the afternoon session. An ethogram chart was constructed to describe each
behaviour of A. javanicus displayed during feeding such as walking, jumping, hopping, gleaning, running,
short flying, voicing, looking around, and feather fluffing. A kinematic diagram was constructed to show the
transition frequencies of each behaviours displayed by A. javanicus during feeding. |
