Statements and Declarations
:
: This study did not involve the capture or handling of birds and complied in accordance with current local and national laws and regulations in Argentina. Although our playback experiments changed the immediate behaviour of the targeted birds, we do not feel that these experiments were stressful. Indeed, all tested birds returned to normal activity relatively quickly after the playbacks. In addition, we have no evidence that our experiment affected the long-term behaviour of individuals or their reproductive success. This study and the protocols we used were approved by the Dirección Provincial de Áreas Naturales Protegidas y Recursos Faunísticos from the Neuquén province, Argentina (Disp 025/22).
: The authors declare that the research was conducted in the absence of any commercial or financial relationships that could be considered as a potential conflict of interest.
