The physiological response (heart rate) of captive wild birds to approaching aircraft during the takeoff roll was determined. Methods and materials designed during the laboratory study were used during the field test to collect data on birds exposed to standard body and wide body aircraft during regularly scheduled departures from San Antonio International Airport. It was found that birds respond to wide body aircraft more than to standard body aircraft while viewing the aircraft during the takeoff roll. The feral pigeons were more responsive to the sight and sound of the approaching aircraft when compared to sound only. The gulls response was similar between sight and sound and sound only.
