Data from: No fitness benefits of early molt in a fairy-wren: relaxed sexual selection under genetic monogamy?

The data package contains six datasets:
- The data file includes pre-breeding moult profiles of male purple-crowned fairy-wrens based on plumage colouration scores collected in the field over a six-year period, as well as life-history-related information for each individual.
- The data file includes information on pre-breeding moult and breeding activity of male purple-crowned fairy-wrens collected in the field over a six-year period.
- The data file includes information on within-individual social improvement, aging and associated variation in pre-breeding moult timing in male purple-crowned fairy-wrens, based on data collected in the field over a six-year period.
- The data file includes data on individual pre-breeding moult timing and the outcome of competitions for a dominance position in male purple-crowned fairy-wrens, collected in the field over a six-year period.
- The data file includes data on pre-breeding moult timing and the outcome of divorces in male purple-crowned fairy-wrens, collected in the field over a six-year period.
- The data file includes information on pre-breeding moult completion and rainfall in associated years for male purple-crowned fairy-wrens, collected in the field over an 11-year period.
