Microscopic anthropogenic waste (MAW) has become a major environmental concern worldwide. Our study aimed to assess the accumulation of MAW in the gastrointestinal tracts of nine common European passerine species from finch (Fringillidae) and tit (Paridae) families, and evaluate their suitability for environmental monitoring. We searched for MAW in the birds' stomachs and intestines and identified suspected particles using Raman microspectroscopy. In total, we found 57 MAW particles in 31 out of 149 analyzed individuals, 7 of which were microplastics (polyethylene, polyethylene terephthalate, polystyrene), 1 was identified as carbon nanotube, while 49 were cellulosic-based (cotton, cellulose, rayon, viscose). The generalized linear mixed models identified bird family and time in season as significant predictors of MAW ingestion. Finches ingested more MAW than tits, and higher ingestion rates were observed during the non-breeding period. Other predictors, including bird sex, age, gastrointestinal tract section, and site, showed varying but non-significant effects. As predicted, the studied species exhibited a lower ingestion rate of MAW compared to terrestrial birds studied so far, possibly due to their diet and feeding behavior. Given that these species are prey for many avian and non-avian predators, they may contribute to the transfer of MAW to higher trophic levels.
