  <dc:description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Two nesting colonies of Quelea quelea in Kenya, 10 and 40 ha in size, were sprayed with 40 and 100 L of Queletox (60%&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="ScopusTermHighlight"&gt;fenthion&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;), respectively. Predatory and insectivorous&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="ScopusTermHighlight"&gt;birds&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;were exposed to short-lived, but severe and potentially harmful, residues. In both colonies, quelea died during a 4-7 day period. In the larger colony, dead and dying&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="ScopusTermHighlight"&gt;birds&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;were found over an area of ≤17 days after spraying, only 2 were found moribund, but based on cholinesterase depression, 16 of 23 raptors examined after spraying were thought to have been exposed. -from Authors&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</dc:description>
