Philopatry , dispersal patterns and nest - site reuse in Lesser Grey
To nest in the same breeding area, territory or even nest-site in successive years may provide a possibility to look at mechanisms involved in breeding habitat selection and could also be an important tool for conservation, management and restoration attempts. In this study we examine site fidelity towards the breeding area as well as the nesting site in a dense and stable population of the Les...
متن کاملBreeding Biology of a Grey Eagle-buzzard Population in Patagonia
-we studied the breeding performance of a Grey Eagle-Buzzard (Geranoaetus melanoleucus) population in a region of northern Argentinian Patagonia where two different habitats occur; the mountains near the Andean cordillera and the plains where shrub-steppes predominate. Mean eagle density was 1 pair/l9 km2 (N = 44), with higher densities occuring in the plains (1 pair03.2 km2, N = 17) than in th...
متن کاملTiming of nest vegetation measurement may obscure adaptive significance of nest‐site characteristics: A simulation study
Advances in understanding avian nesting ecology are hindered by a prevalent lack of agreement between nest-site characteristics and fitness metrics such as nest success. We posit this is a result of inconsistent and improper timing of nest-site vegetation measurements. Therefore, we evaluated how the timing of nest vegetation measurement influences the estimated effects of vegetation structure ...
متن کاملNest Site Characteristics and Factors Affecting Nest Success of Greater Sage-grouse
Nesting success of greater sage-grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus) influences annual reproductive success and population dynamics. To describe nesting habitat and measure the effects of vegetation characteristics on nesting outcomes, we sampled 87 sage-grouse nests during 2004 and 2005 in the Montana Mountains of northwestern Nevada. Within a 78.5-m 2 circular plot surrounding each nest, we qua...
متن کاملThe influence of nest-site characteristics on the nesting success of the Karoo Prinia (Prinia maculosa)
Choice of nest site has important consequences for nest survival. We examined nest-site characteristics relative to nest success in Karoo Prinias breeding in coastal dwarf shrubland, where high nest predation is the main cause of nest failure. Initially, we compared nests that failed during the building, laying, incubation and nestling stages and those from which young were successfully raised,...
