Led By Their Noses,
Sea Birds Find Food
by Joy Aschenbach
National Geographic News Service
WASHINGTON -- At dawn
Bcrnice Wen/el would sail out six
miles oft' the California coast, pour
hot bacon grease, puffed cereal,
and popcorn on the Pacific Ocean
surface -- and wait.
It wasn't breakfast for the fish,
but the basic ingredients of scien
tific research for the birds. Dr.
Wen /el was waiting for sea birds to
fly bv. determining whether the
tube-nosed type rely on that promi
nent part of their anatomy to find
food.
"Definitely they smell it before
they see it. 1 have no doubt that
odor is one of their cues." she
said. Bui to what extent the nose
knows, scientists are not certain.
Nor are they sure how far down
wind the birds pick up the scent.
Estimates range up to a few miles.
Birds in general are not known
for their sense of smell, and it
cannot be automatically assumed
that those endowed with large
amounts of olfactory brain tissue
depend on u exclusively or heavily.
But it is reasonable to suppose that
they may. And Dr. Wenzel and her
research team have spent about a
thousand hours on the water trying
to find out.
Who cares? Black-footed' alba
trosses. sooty shearwaters.
Northern fulmars, ashy storm
petrels, and their other tube-nosed
friends. Their lives may depend on
it. especially if offshore oil drilling
accelerates, points out Dr. Wenzel.
a professor of physiology in the
School of Medicine at the Univer
sity of California. Los Angeles.
Scientists don't know what im
pact future drilling may have on
these sea bird populations. If. for
example, the birds would starve
without their noses and if drilling
odors interfere with their ability to
smell their natural food, this
olfactory information could be
crucial. Even if the fishy food odors
could still be picked up. the drilling
odors may repel the birds.
So far. puffed cereal and pop
corn have given Dr. Wenzel her
strongest clues to their nasal sense.
When these relatively odorless mor
sels were sprinkled on the water
along -- without the added aroma
of bacon grease -- the tube-nosed
birds didn't even stop to investi
gate.
But the non-tube-nosed sea birds
such as gulls flocked around. For
them, something visual was "a
potent stimulus," Dr. Wenzel said.
The tube-nosed birds on the
other hand were attracted to the
open slicks of bacon grease even
when it was not mixed with putted
cereal and popcorn. But the gulls
were not.
Recently in her research, which
is supported in part by the National
Geographic Society. Dr. Wen/el
has switched odor sources -- from
slicks ot" bacon grease to plastic
bottles ot tuna oil and cod liver oil.
She has rigged up a truck tire
inner tube with a wooden floor and
pole protruding front the center
about three feet. A small bottle of
the oil is mounted on top with a
short wick sticking out. It releases
the fishy odors that appeal to birds
that normally diet on anchovies and
squid.
The tube-nosed birds apparently
use their noses for more than just
sniffing out food. Other scientific
studies have indicated that their
noses may guide them in other
aspects of their daily lives, for
example, returning to their breed
ing and nesting places on islands.
When the olfactory nerves of one
kind of storm petrel were cut in a
study, the birds were unable to find
their way back to their island
nesting burrows.
