Nest Survival and Predation in Blue-Fronted Parrots Amazona aestiva: Effects of Nesting Behaviour and Cavity Characteristics
(Nederlandse Ornithologische Unie, 2016-10)
In this study we analyse factors affecting nest survival in Blue-fronted Parrots Amazona aestiva breeding in the Chaco region of northern Argentina. We combined temporal and environmental variables in order to determine ...
Cavity characteristics, but not habitat, influence nest survival of cavity-nesting birds along a gradient of human impact in the subtropical Atlantic Forest
(Elsevier, 2015-04)
Cavity-nesting vertebrates are an important component of biodiversity in tropical and subtropical forests, but their persistence will increasingly depend on remnant trees in logged forest and agricultural areas. To identify ...
Nesting biology of the Narrow-billed Woodcreeper (Lepidocolaptes angustirostris) in a southern temperate forest of central-east Argentina
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2019-05)
We present data on the nesting biology of the Narrow-billed Woodcreeper (Lepidocolaptes angustirostris) in a natural forest in central-east Argentina. A total of 18 nests were found during four breeding seasons (2015–2019; ...
Nesting biology of tapaculos (Rhinocryptidae) in fragmented south-temperate rainforests of Chile
(American Ornithologist Society, 2002)
We studied the effect of forest fragmentation on the nesting biology and reproductive success of three species of tapaculos (Rhinocryptidae) in relation to forest size, edge effects, and disturbance from livestock or logging ...
Microhabitat nest cover effect on nest survival of the Red-Crested Cardinal
(Wilson Ornithological Society, 2012-09)
Predation is the primary cause of nest failure of birds and factors affecting predation risk have shaped the evolution of avian life histories. We evaluated the influence of microhabitat vegetation cover on Red-crested ...
Nest survival of the Two-Banded Plover (Charadrius falklandicus) population in Northern Chubut Province, Patagonia Argentina
(American Ornithological Society, 2016)
Current efforts to monitoring the Two-Banded Plover (Charadrius falklandicus), an endemic shorebird to southern South America, have provided information on their breeding biology at beaches with human disturbance in northern ...
The use of nest protectors for the saffron-cowled blackbird Xanthopsar flavus in Argentina
(University of Cambridge, 2017-12)
Summary. A simple predator exclosure applied to saffron-cowled blackbird nests resulted in 69% fledging success compared to 36% for the controls.
