The Nitrogen content in faecal matter is a function of trophic position of an animal. Naturally N content increases as you step up from herbivores to predators. Along with feeding habit and food type, the type of bird, body size and weight also determine the total nitrogen content although the C:N ratio of fecal matter is phylogenetically fixed.
the paper below has been accepted for publication in Ecology and should be available soon. According to the abstract: " The dataset includes 10,534 observations from freshwater and marine animals of N and/or P excretion rates. These observations represent 491 species, including most aquatic phyla." Sounds interesting.
