  		Fig. 1. Mean daily growth rates (±s.e.m.; left column) and mean absolute values (±s.e.m.; right column) of the length of primary 8, hand length, tarsus length, body mass and furcular fat score in kestrel nestlings from age 10 to 25 days. Corticosterone pellets were implanted on day 13 and circulating corticosterone was elevated from day 13 to 16. Asterisks indicate significant differences between cort- and placebo-nestlings (post-hoc mixed models, treatment: P<0.001).
