چکیده
During the springs of 2014 and 2015, and the winter of 2014/15, bird survey was conducted in the forests of Petrova gora. Overall, 35 bird species were registered. Songbird breeding densities were assessed using the point-count method. The most numerous species recorded were the Great Tit Parus major and the Eurasian Chaffinch Fringilla coelebs. The Stock Dove Columba oenas, categorised as vulnerable in Croatia, was for the first time recorded in this area. An overview of all bird species recorded at Petrova gora, in this and previous studies, is provided.

This chapter summarizes terminology and methodology used by Marbled Murrelet (Brachyramphus marmoratus) biologists when surveying inland forests. Information is included on the types of behaviors used to determine if murrelets may be nesting in an area, and the various types of detections used to quantify murrelet use of forest stands. Problems with the methodology are also discussed. Censusing...

متن کاملSongbird Nest Survival Is Invariant to Early-successional Restoration Treatments in a Large River Floodplain
—We monitored songbird nest survival in two reforesting, ,50-ha former cropland sites along the Missouri River in central Missouri from 2001 to 2003. Sites were partitioned into three experimental units, each receiving one of three tree planting treatments. Nest densities varied among restoration treatments for four of five species, but overall nest survival rates did not. Nest survival varied ...
