Abstract Ornithological studies often rely on large temporal scale ringing datasets as source of information. However, basic descriptive statistics of collected data are rarely provided. In order to fill this gap, here we present the first item of a series of exploratory analyses of migration timing and body size measurements of the most frequent Passerine species at a ringing station located in Central Hungary (1984–2015). First, we give a concise description of foreign ring recoveries of the Pied Flycatcher in relation to Hungary. We then shift focus to data of 2860 individuals deriving from the ringing station, where birds have been trapped, handled and ringed with standardized methodology since 1984. Timing is described through annual and daily capture and recapture frequencies and their descriptive statistics. We show annual mean arrival dates within the study period and we present the cumulative distribution of first captures with stopover durations. We present the distributions of wing, third primary, tail length and body mass, and the annual means of these variables. Furthermore, we show the distribution of individual fat and muscle scores, and the distribution of body mass within each fat score category. We distinguish migration periods (spring and autumn), age (i.e. juveniles and adults) and sex groups. Our aim is to provide a comprehensive overview of the analysed variables. However, we do not aim to interpret the obtained results, merely draw attention to interesting patterns, that may be worth exploring in detail. Data used here are available upon request for further analyses.

An original test to study the behavior of the pied flycatcher has been developed. The experimental arena can be used in field and laboratory study. It looks like a plus maze with a darkened central compartment, simulating an empty nesting box, and four entrances to the illuminated peripheral compartments of the arena. Birds demonstrate individual behavioral variability. They stay in the central compartment or leave it; make a different number of transitions between compartments and try to escape from the peripheral compartments through the transparent cover. Bird activity may depend on a number of factors, including the level of research activity and anxiety of individuals. This allows you to use this test to study the behavioral syndrome of the pied flycatcher.
