Extended Data Fig. 3: Tree Swallow chick body mass in relationship to survival from 1986–2020.

a) The probability of recapture increases from 75 to more than 90 percent for chicks between 15 and 20 grams at day 12 post hatch. b) In all years where chicks were recaptured, recaptured chicks were typically more than 1 standard deviation larger than the annual mean for all chicks in their hatch year. c.) When compiled across all years, both recaptured male and female chicks are consistently larger than their non recaptured counterparts.
