Table 5. Linear mixed models describing heat loss through the bill as a percent of heat of heat lost through all body surfaces (percent Qbill).
Models | K | AICc | ΔAICc | AICc weight |

Individual is a random effect and square root of activity is a fixed effect in each model. Models with ΔAICc <5 are included here (see full model set in Table S4).
