摘要：

Adult brown pelicans (Pelecanus occidentalis) capture prey on a larger percentage of their dives than immatures hunting under the same conditions. This difference provides at least a partial explanation of delayed maturation and smaller clutch sizes of younger birds in species using skilled foraging techniques. © 1969.
