We ompre plsm initors of ft eposition (triglyerie), ft tolism (B-hyroxyutyrte), n protein tolism (uri i) mong psserine speies tht re frugivorous to vrile egree uring utumn stopover on Blok Isln, Rhoe Isln. We lso ompre plsm lipi metolites from 3 of these speies tht were pture t 2 stopover sites with ifferent fruit unne. The more frugivorous Hermit Thrushes (Cthrus gutttus) h the highest plsm triglyerie, n uri i ws highest in the lest frugivorous speies smple on Blok Isln, ut other ifferenes mong speies were not lerly relte to iet. B-hyroxyutyrte ws more vrile mong the speies smple on Blok Isln. Plsm triglyerie ws signifintly higher in Hermit Thrushes pture on Blok Isln, where fruit resoures were unnt, thn in Hermit Thrushes pture t minln site in southern Rhoe Isln, where less fruit ws ville.

Thus, migrtion suess epens on the vilility of high-qulity hitts tht provie equte foo resoures, prtiulrly in res long migrtion orriors tht support lrge numers of irs uring migrtions. Beuse mny migrnts use stopover sites to inrese their energy stores, mesuring fuel eposition rtes of irs uring stopovers n provie informtion out the qulity n use of speifi sites. Fuel eposition rtes re typilly ssesse y mesuring mss hnge of irs repture uring stopovers or y ompring oy mss of irs pture t ifferent times of y to infer rte of mss gin s ily forging progresses (Winker et l. 1992; Winker 1995; Dunn 2000, 2002). The first pproh is limite y smll smple sizes euse few irs re repture uring short stopovers, wheres the seon pproh ssumes tht rrivl times n rtes of mss gin re similr mong ll iniviuls (Dunn 2000, 2002), n the results of these two types of nlyses re sometimes inonsistent (Winker et l. 1992, Bonter et l. 2007). Plsm metolite profiling vois these limittions n provies informtion out fuel use n eposition over the pst severl hours in iniviul irs pture one. For exmple, plsm onentrtions of lipi metolites inrese uring ft eposition (triglyerie) n tolism (B-hyroxyutyrte, nonesterifie ftty is, glyerol), n plsm uri i inreses uring protein tolism (Stevens 1996). Aoringly, plsm triglyeries n B-hyroxyutyrte were iretly relte to mss hnges of ptive irs over perio of severl hours (Jenni-Eiermnn n Jenni 1994, Jenni n Shwilh 2001) to severl ys (Willims et l. 1999, Semn et l. 2005). Plsm metolite profiling hs een use to etet ifferenes in fuel eposition rtes of migrting irs n hitt qulity t stopover sites (Shu n Jenni 2001; Guglielmo et l. 2002, 2005; Yenerg et l. 2002; Aeveo Semn et l. 2006; Willims et l. 2007). Here, we use plsm metolite profiling to ompre fuel eposition rtes mong vriety of songirs throughout utumn migrtion t stopover site n mong selete songirs with ifferent forging strtegies t 2 stopover sites with ifferent fruit unne. Mny psserine speies in estern North Ameri swith from primrily insetivorous iet on their reeing grouns to primrily frugivorous iet uring utumn migrtion (Prrish 1997). This ietry plstiity llows irs to utilize fruit resoures tht re often superunnt uring utumn n tht re presumly less energetilly expensive to fin n et thn inset prey (Prrish 2000). In ition, mny temperte fruits re high in ft or sugr (Thompson n Willson 1979, White 1989, Smith et l. 2007), whih my filitte migrtory fttening (Birlein n Simons 1995, Stevens 1996). We hypothesize tht higher fruit onsumption n enhne fuel eposition rtes of irs uring migrtory stopovers. We teste this hypothesis in two wys: (1) we ompre plsm metolites from vriety of songirs tht iffere in egree of frugivory while they inhite stopover site with unnt fruit, n (2) we ompre fuel eposition rtes of 3 songir speies with ifferent forging strtegies while they inhite 2 stopover sites tht iffere in fruit unne. Beuse we re involve in long-term (>40 yers) ir-ning progrms t oth the southern New Engln stopover sites use in the present stuy, our ojetives lso inlue etermining the reltive importne of environmentl n methoologil vriles tht my influene plsm lipi n protein metolite onentrtions n their interprettion s initors of physiologil n nutritionl stte of migrting songirs. Met h o s Stuy res. We onute our stuy t 2 lotions in southern Rhoe Isln. Blok Isln, whih is lote ~19 km off the southern ost of Rhoe Isln (41 12 N, W), is ielly lote to reeive lrge numers of migrting irs tht frequently rift offshore when they enounter the strong northwesterly wins typil uring utumn in southern New Engln s ostl res. These migrnts reorient themselves n onentrte t the north en of the isln efore flying k to the minln to ontinue migrtion (Ale 1977). The Cly He Preserve omprises lrge re of mritime shruln hitt t the north en of the isln (~77 h) tht serves s stopover site for mny of these psserine speies uring utumn migrtions (Bir n Niset 1960, Reinert et l. 2002). This re is hrterize uring utumn y superunnt wil fruits tht provie foo resoure for psserine migrnts uring utumn stopover (Prrish 1997, Smith et l. 2007). The shruln ommunity is ominte y wooy fruit-ering shrus, suh s Arrowwoo Viurnum (Viurnum enttum), Northern Byerry (Myri pensylvni), Blk Chokeerry (Aroni melnorp), n Common Wintererry (Ilex vertiillt). The ense unerstory lso ontins fruiting plnt speies suh s Amerin Pokewee (Phytol merin), Virgini Creeper (Prthenoissus quinquefoli), n Northern Dewerry (Ruus flgellris). Highly invsive speies, nmely Orientl Bittersweet (Celstrus oriultus), Multiflor Rose (Ros multiflor), n Autumn Olive (Elegnus umellt) re lso present within Cly He Preserve. The Kingston Willife Reserh Sttion (KWRS) is lote in southern Rhoe Isln in South Kingstown (41 27 N, W). The lnspe of this re is primrily eiuous forest pthes frgmente y evelope ln n griulturl fiels.

The forest nopy is ominte y White Ash (Frxinus merin), Re Mple (Aer rurum), n oks (Querus spp.). Dominnt fruiting speies in the unerstory n nopy openings inlue Common Greenrier (Smilx rotunifoli), Orientl Bittersweet, Europen Privet (Ligustrum vulgre), n Fox Grpe (Vitis lrus). Arrowwoo Viurnum, Amerin Pokewee, Virgini Creeper, n Common Wintererry re rre n our in isolte pthes in the unerstory n nopy openings. Within-site omprisons. We smple loo from 8 speies of migrtory psserines tht ommonly our on Blok Isln. These speies were selete euse they were pture in suffiient numers (n 10) n iffer in level of frugivory while on Blok Isln uring utumn migrtion. Hermit Thrush (Cthrus gutttus), Yellow-rumpe Wrler (Denroi oront), Gry Ctir (Dumetell rolinensis), n Re-eye Vireo (Vireo oliveus) re highly frugivorous uring utumn migrtion on Blok Isln ( 74% fruit in fel smples; Prrish 1997).

Bloo smples from 2 White-rowne Sprrows (Z. leuophrys) were omine with those from the ongeneri White-throte Sprrow (herefter Zonotrihi ) for the nlyses. We esigne our loo-smpling protool so tht it oul fit within the typil ily sheule t ir-ning sttions. We pture irs using 30-mm nylon mist nets situte long estlishe trils within the shruln hitt in Cly He Preserve uring utumn Nets were opene t sunrise on eh morning of opertion, n irs were inlue in susequent nlyses if they were pture 1 6 h fter sunrise. This ensure tht irs h egun forging in the morning efore they were pture. Birs were extrte from nets t intervls of min n then rought to entrl lotion where they were hel in loth holing-gs until morphologil mesurements n loo smples were otine. We rew ~50 μl of loo from the rhil vein fter punture with 27-guge neele n ollete it in heprinize pillry tues. After loo ws rwn, we mesure wing hor n oy mss n then relese the irs. We reore the time of y s net hek time when irs were extrte from nets n then onverte the time of y to numer of full hours plus frtions of hours fter sunrise (herefter hours fter sunrise ). This ontrolle for hnges in time of sunrise s the seson progresse. Blee time ws reore s the time elpse etween the net hek n loo smpling. Only irs for whih lee time ws 30 min were inlue in susequent nlyses. Bloo smples were entrifuge t 8,000 rpm for 10 min to seprte plsm from re loo ells, n plsm ws then store t 80 C until nlysis. Between-site omprisons. We pture n le Hermit Thrushes, Yellow-rumpe Wrlers, n White-throte Sprrows t KWRS n on Blok Isln. We selete these speies euse they re ommonly pture t oth sites n re sesonlly frugivorous uring utumn migrtion (Prrish 1997). We onute loo smpling, proesse loo, n mesure irs using the sme proeures esrie ove. Birs were then ne with serilly numere feerl luminum leg ns n relese. Nets were operte t oth sites on 4 ys in 2004 (21, 23, 26, n 28 Otoer) n 4 ys in 2005 (16, 18, 20, n 27 Otoer). The simultneous pture of irs t oth sites minimizes ifferenes in wether or migrtion ptterns mong smpling ys t the 2 sites. We lso minimize temporl vrition in ily forging y inluing only irs pture within the sme 2.5-h perio in the morning t eh site on eh smpling y. We ssesse frequeny of ourrene of 10 plnt speies tht proue fruits n the presene of ripe fruit t eh site in 2005 to ompre the vilility of fruit resoures etween sites for the following speies: Arrowwoo Viurnum, Northern Byerry, Amerin Pokewee, Virgini Creeper, Blk Chokeerry, Ros spp., Orientl Bittersweet, Common Wintererry, Common Greenrier, n Europen Privet. Smpling ws onute within twenty-four 4-m 2 plots lote 1 m into the vegettion long the estlishe net lnes or trils. We reore the presene of plnt speies tht proue fruits n the presene of ripe fruit on these plnts in eh plot on Blok Isln n t KWRS on 6 n 7 Otoer 2005, respetively. We reognize tht there my e nnul vrition in fruit proution n tht fruit vilility my hve een ifferent in 2004 n However, suh vrition is likely to ffet these 2 sites similrly eh yer given their reltive proximity. Mesurement of plsm metolites. We mesure onentrtions of triglyerie (TRIG), B-hyroxyutyrte (BUTY), n uri i in plsm ollete for within-site omprisons mong speies pture on Blok Isln, n we mesure TRIG n BUTY in plsm ollete for etween-site omprisons (Blok Isln vs. KWRS). We mesure TRIG y sequentil enpoint ssy (Sigm, St. Louis, Missouri; 5 μl plsm, 240 μl regent A, 60 μl regent B) y first mesuring free glyerol n then sutrting free glyerol onentrtion from mesure totl triglyerie onentrtion. We mesure BUTY y kineti ssy (R-Biophrm, Mrshll, Mihign; 5 μl smple, 150 μl working solution, 3 μl BUTY ehyrogense, re kinetilly for 30 min) using metho similr to tht of Guglielmo et l. (2005). We mesure uri i y enpoint ssy (TECO Dignostis, Anheim, Cliforni; 5 μl smple, 300 μl regent). Smples with smll plsm volumes were ilute 2-fol to 3-fol with 0.9% NCl efore ll ssys, n we repete mesurements until the oeffiient of vrition etween replites ws <10%. Sttistil nlyses. The ir speies tht we use vry onsierly in overll oy size, n these struturl ifferenes in oy size will influene oy mss (Connell et l. 1960). Thus, we juste oy mss for mesure of oy size y using the resiuls from liner regression of oy mss n wing length in ll susequent nlyses. We use n informtion-theoreti pproh to investigte the importne of 5 vriles for explining vrition in TRIG, BUTY, n uri i onentrtions of irs uring utumn stopover on Blok Isln. We evlute moel set ontining ll possile omintions of speies, hours fter sunrise, te, size-orrete oy mss, n lee time. We lulte Akike s informtion riterion juste for smll smple sizes (AIC ) n use ifferenes in AIC (Δ i = AIC i AIC min ) to rnk nite moels (Burnhm n Anerson 2002). We onsiere nite moels with Δ i < 2 sustntilly supporte (Burnhm n Anerson 2002). We use Akike weights (w i ) to lulte eviene rtios (w 1 /w j ; Burnhm n Anerson 2002) to etermine the reltive likelihoo of eh nite moel (w j ) ompre with the highestrnke moel (w 1 ). We then lulte the reltive importne (w + (j)) of eh explntory vrile y summing the w i ross ll nite moels in whih tht vrile ourre (Burnhm n Anerson 2002). We use Person s orreltion oeffiients to lrify the iretion of the reltionship etween the highest-rnke ontinuous vriles n metolite onentrtions. We then use nlysis of ovrine (ANCOVA) with post ho Tukey s HSD tests to test for expliit ifferenes in metolite onentrtions mong the speies pture on Blok Isln in utumn We use reltive importne vlues s guie to etermine whih vriles (hours fter sunrise, te, lee time, n oy mss juste for oy size) to inlue s ovrites in ANCOVA. We then eliminte ovrites tht i not ontriute signifintly to the moel.

Blee time ws not signifintly orrelte with TRIG (P = 0.81) or BUTY (P = 0.10) onentrtions, n verge lee time ws similr etween sites (F = 2.1, f = 1 n 58, P = 0.15) n mong speies (F = 0.1, f = 2 n 58, P = 0.91), presumly euse we limite our site-omprison t set y speies, time of y, n te. Our stuy esign for the etweensite omprison effetively ontrolle for te y limiting smpling to 4 ys eh yer. Thus, we eliminte lee time n te s potentil ovrites. We use n informtion-theoreti pproh (s esrie ove for within-site omprisons) to evlute the importne of site, speies, hours fter sunrise, n size-orrete oy mss for explining vrition in TRIG n BUTY onentrtions in irs pture t the 2 stopover sites. We then use two-wy ANOVA with site n speies s fixe ftors to test for expliit ifferenes in TRIG onentrtions etween sites. Heterogeneity of vrine of BUTY onentrtions etween sites for Hermit Thrush n etween speies t KWRS prelue the use of two-wy ANOVA to test for speifi site ifferenes. Thus, we use one-wy ANOVA to ompre BUTY onentrtions mong speies on BI n the Kruskl-Wllis test to ompre BUTY onentrtions mong speies t KWRS. We then use two-smple t-tests using the Stterthwite pproximtion for egrees of freeom when there ws unequl vrine etween speies or sites. Speies-speifi ifferenes in BUTY onentrtions etween sites were onsiere signifint t P = 0.017, tking into ount Bonferroni orretion for ompring 3 speies. We lulte perent presene (numer of plots present / totl plots 100) of eh fruiting plnt speies n presene of ripe fruit seprtely for eh site n yer for tulr representtion of plnt presene t. We use hi-squre tests (2 2 ontingeny tles) to ompre the frequeny of ourrene for eh fruiting plnt speies or ripe fruit etween sites. The TRIG, BUTY, n uri i onentrtions of irs pture on Blok Isln uring utumn 2005 evite from normlity. Therefore, we log (X + 1) trnsforme TRIG n BUTY, n we trnsforme uri i using the fourth root power trnsformtion, X (0.25), whih normlize the t. These trnsforme metolite onentrtions were use for ll within-site nlyses on Blok Isln. The BUTY onentrtions of irs pture t KWRS n on Blok Isln were log (X + 1) trnsforme n, onsequently, the t were normlly istriute for etween-site omprisons. All sttistil tests were lulte using SAS, version 9.1 (SAS Institute, Cry, North Crolin), with the signifine level set t P < Re s u lt s Vrition in plsm metolites of irs pture on Blok Isln. Speies, hours fter sunrise, n size-orrete oy mss were inlue in the highest-rnke moel explining vrition in plsm TRIG (see Tle 1 for rw metolite onentrtions use for within-site nlyses); however, 2 other moels lso h sustntil support, with Δ i < 2 (Tle 2). Reltive importne vlues suggeste tht speies n hours fter sunrise were more importnt thn te, lee time, n size-orrete oy mss for explining vrition in TRIG (Tle 3). Hours fter sunrise ws onsistently positively orrelte with TRIG ross speies (overll: r = 0.36, P < 0.001; Hermit Thrush: r = 0.47, P = 0.001; Yellow-rumpe Wrler: r = 0.43, P = 0.01; Gry Ctir: r = 0.39, P = 0.05; Re-eye Vireo: r = 0.21, P = 0.51; Zonotrihi: r = 0.60, P = 0.01; Drk-eye Juno: r = 0.38, P = 0.15; Blue-hee Vireo: r = 0.47, P = 0.12). The moel explining plsm BUTY onentrtions ws more omplex euse speies, hours fter sunrise, te, n lee time were inlue in the highest-rnke moel (Tle 2). In ition, there were 3 other moels with Δ i < 2, whih were only times less likely to explin more vrition thn the highest-rnke moel (Tle 2). Reltive importne vlues suggest tht speies, te, n lee time were more importnt thn hours fter sunrise n size-orrete oy mss (Tle 3).

We reognize tht there re mny other ifferenes etween speies n our stuy sites, in ition to fruit resoures, tht my ontriute to vrition in plsm TRIG onentrtions. For exmple, Hermit Thrushes, White-throte Sprrows, Drk-eye Junos, n Yellow-rumpe Wrlers ll winter on Blok Isln to some extent (S. Comings pers. omm.); however, speies tht re stritly migrnts uring utumn on Blok Isln (Blue-hee Vireo n Re-eye Vireo) showe no extrorinry pttern of ft eposition. Gry Ctir is the only speies smple in our stuy tht is known to ree on Blok Isln (S. Comings pers. omm.), n plsm TRIG ws lowest in this speies, perhps euse some irs were not yet in migrtory stte. It is lso possile tht the fuel eposition rte ws influene y ge or sex (Woorey n Moore 1997, Yong et l. 1998, Jones et l. 2002, Heise n Moore 2003). Age is not likely n importnt ftor explining interspeifi vrition in fuel eposition rtes on Blok Isln, euse nerly ll irs pture were hth-yer. In generl, more oler irs re pture t KWRS thn on Blok Isln, ut this is not likely signifint ftor for Hermit Thrushes, most of whih pture t KWRS were hth-yer. Further, Drk-eye Juno ws the only speies in whih more mles thn femles were pture (mong iniviuls tht oul e relily sexe). Molt is proly irrelevnt to the interspeifi ifferenes in plsm metolites reporte here, euse most of the irs smple were just ompleting their presi molt n so were t reltively similr molt stges. In ition, plsm lipi metolites o not orrelte strongly with intensity of molt throughout the presi molting perio in migrtory songirs (Jenni-Eiermnn n Jenni 1996). Given tht iet n other interspeifi ifferenes my ontriute to vrition in plsm metolite onentrtion, suh interspeifi omprisons shoul e unertken with ution or limite to speies with very similr life histories, iet hits, n migrtion strtegies.

Plsm BUTY ws ifferent mong ir speies pture on Blok Isln, even fter ontrolling for te n lee time, whih suggests tht itionl ftors influene BUTY onentrtions. Hermit Thrush n Gry Ctir re highly frugivorous, n they h the lowest BUTY onentrtions uring utumn migrtion on Blok Isln, where fruit ws unnt. However, other ifferenes etween speies were not lerly relte to iet. If BUTY is negtively ffete y fruit vilility, we woul expet plsm onentrtions to e higher t KWRS, where vilility of highenergy fruits, suh s Arrowwoo Viurnum, is lower thn on Blok Isln. However, site ws of reltively low importne for explining BUTY onentrtions, n the interspeifi ifferenes in BUTY mong irs pture on Blok Isln were not pprent t KWRS.

Plsm uri i onentrtions iffere sustntilly etween ir speies pture on Blok Isln. In generl, less frugivorous speies h higher onentrtions thn more frugivorous speies. Given tht plsm uri i ws positively relte to protein intke in previous stuies of ptive irs (Golstein et l. 2001, Smith et l. 2007), the lower onentrtions in free-living frugivorous irs my our euse most fruits hve less protein thn other ville foos (Smith et l. 2007). Plsm uri i ws lso influene, to lesser egree, y te of pture, lthough the ft tht there ws not signifint orreltion etween uri i n te of pture for ny of the speies suggests tht the reltionship etween these 2 vriles my e nonliner. If plsm uri i is relte to onsumption of high-protein inset resoures, this oul explin the eline in plsm uri i s utumn progresse n inset resoures eline.

Our t suggest tht highly frugivorous migrtory speies n refuel t fster rte when fruit iversity, qulity, n vilility re high, s emonstrte y higher plsm TRIG in irs pture on Blok Isln. The fruit resoures present t KWRS re ominte y few speies tht hve low energy ensity (e.g., Orientl Bittersweet) or tht re voie y migrting irs n persist into the winter (e.g., Europen Privet) more thn the ommon high-energy fruits (e.g., Arrowwoo Viurnum) foun in the mritime shruln hitt on Blok Isln. Therefore, these high-qulity fruit resoures my e useful initor of hitt qulity t stopover sites. However, stopover hitts must provie suffiient mounts of other foos, suh s insets, tht n e utilize y less frugivorous speies tht re unle to rely primrily on fruits uring utumn stopover. Plsm metolites n provie useful informtion out fuel eposition n resoure use of irs t migrtion stopover sites, provie tht severl importnt vriles re onsiere. Although plsm TRIG n BUTY n urtely inite ifferenes in mss hnge etween sites in fiel-pture irs (Guglielmo et l. 2005), we suggest tht plsm TRIG n uri i, ut not BUTY, re the est nites for use t ning n monitoring sttions. Within given stopover site, plsm TRIG n provie informtion out short-term fuel eposition in iniviuls, n uri i my provie informtion out reltive mounts of ietry protein in irs pture one. Further, we foun tht plsm TRIG n uri i were less sensitive to vrition in lee time thn BUTY. This is prtiulrly importnt when it is unfesile to ontinuously monitor nets to reor the ext time of pture. However, we stress tht minimizing the time etween net pture n lee time is ritil to ensuring tht plsm TRIG represents the feeing stte of iniviul irs. Plsm lipi metolites my relily inite fttening rtes of irs, lthough omprisons mong speies shoul e limite to speies with similr iet hits n to sesons when irs et similr foos, euse lrge ifferenes in ietry mronutrient omposition, prtiulrly sugr n protein ontent, my influene lipi metolite onentrtions (Smith et l. 2007, Smith n MWillims 2009).
