We measured energy expenditure in free living incubating Great tits (Parus major) by doing oxygen measurements during the night. We measured the same birds two nights in a row and one of the nights we manipulated the clutch size of the bird. Evidence was found that oxygen consumption was dependent on temperature, manipulation and nest thickness.
