Table 1 Result of the backward selection of the fixed part of the Linear mixed-model. Models are sorted by Akaiki Information Criterion (AIC) with the best model with the lowest AIC placed below. Here is the development of nocturnal activity (“Shift”) depends on day of captivity (“Day”), place where birds were housed (“Place”: Outdoor/Indoor), surrounded conditions (“Condition” Local/Translocated) and interactions of those factors.
