From: Seasonal activity levels of a farm-island population of striated caracaras (Phalcoboenus australis) in the Falkland Islands

Fig. 3

Boxplots show duration (Fig. 3a) and corresponding percentage (Fig. 3b) of daytime (i.e., solar dawn to solar dusk) spent in each activity state for summer (solid) and winter (dashed). Open circles (males) and triangles (females) reveal sex differences within corresponding boxplots. Year-round, males spent a greater proportion of daylight hours in states 3 and 4 than females. During winter, both sexes increased their proportion of time spent in states 3 and 4. Caracaras appear to spend the extra daylight of longer summer in resting states (Fig. 3a). Boxplot whiskers extend to the largest and smallest values (at most 1.5 * IQR [inter-quartile range])
