The daily and seasonal cycle of day and night is the only reliable environmental cue that the bird can use to time its activities, and an appreciation of photoperiodism is fundamental to an understanding of how birds live. Virtually all metabolic processes exhibit endogenous circadian rhythms which are entrained by the 24-hour day-night cycle. From such rhythms are compounded endogen-ous circannual rhythms of physiological func-tion which in turn are entrained by seasonal changes in the light-dark cycle-weakly at the equator and strongly at high latitudes. Rhythms in gamete production are s.
