Snags as Indicators of Habitat Suitability for Open Nesting Birds
--The habitat requirements of open nesting birds were examined in 19, five hectare, plots arranged along an altitudinal gradient in western Montana. Seven, mature forest birds were examined in detai 1. Percent shrub and low canopy cover {0.5-1.5m), mid-canopy cover {8-25m), and the number of large diameter stems {25-50 em dbh) were of major importance to this avian co11111unity. Increased avian...
متن کاملNesting tree characteristics of heronry birds of urban ecosystems in peninsular India: implications for habitat management
Wetland ecosystems, particularly the mangrove forest, are the primary wild habitat of heronry birds. However, urban ecosystems have become a favorite breeding habitat of these birds. To provide inputs into the habitat management for conservation of these birds, we investigated the quantitative and qualitative characteristics of nesting trees of heronry birds in the urban environment of the Nort...
متن کاملNest-Site Habitat of Cavity-Nesting Birds at the San Joaquin Experimental Range
Detailed information about the nesting habitats of birds, including those needed for successful nesting, can provide a better understanding of the ecological factors that permit coexistence of different species and may aid in conservation efforts. From 1989 through 1994, we studied the nesting habitat of secondary cavity-nesting birds in oak woodlands at the San Joaquin Experimental Range, Made...
متن کاملA rat-resistant artificial nest box for cavity-nesting birds
The puaiohi or small Kauai thrush (Myadestes palmeri) is an endangered bird endemic to the island of Kauai, Hawaii. The sole population of about 500 birds is currently restricted to remote, higher elevation areas of the Alakai Plateau. Puaiohi nest primarily on steep streamside cliffs, and their distribution and abundance are limited by availability of suitable nesting sites. Black rats (Rattus...
متن کاملThe Effects of Postfire Salvage Logging on Cavity-nesting Birds
We investigated the effects of postfire salvage logging on cavity-nesting birds by comparing nest densities and patterns of nest reuse over a three-year period in seven logged and eight unlogged patches of mixed-conifer forest in the Blackfoot-Clearwater Wildlife Management Area, Montana. We found 563 active nests of 18 cavity-nesting birds; all species were found nesting in the uncut burned fo...
