Double-nesting behaviour and sexual differences in breeding success in wild Red-legged Partridges Alectoris rufa

Double-nesting behaviour, a rare breeding system in which females lay in two nests, one incubated by herself and the other one by her mate, could be considered an intermediate stage in the evolutionary trend from biparental to uniparental care of single clutches. We examined the occurrence and success of double-nesting behaviour in Red-legged Partridges Alectoris rufa in Central Spain. Clutch s...

Nesting Success of Ohio's Endangered Common Tern

Nesting success of Ohio's endangered common tern (Sterna hirundo) population was studied during 1980 at Lucas County Port Authority Facility No. 3 (F3) located near Toledo in Maumee Bay, Lake Erie. Ninety-one clutches in three of eight tern subcolonies at this site were studied in detail. Sixty-nine percent (157/229) of the eggs failed to hatch, and abandonment of nests during incubation was re...

Nest-site Selection and Nesting Success of Cavity-nesting Birds in High Elevation Forest Drainages

ABssAcr.-We identified habitat features that characterized successful and unsuccessful nest sites, nest sites vs. random sites, and differences among coexisting species of cavitynesting birds for 356 nests in central Arizona. Live and, more commonly, dead quaking aspens (Populus tremuloides) were used for 88% of all nest sites, but aspens constituted only 12% of all trees in random plots (n = 1...
