Artificial Nest Experiments: Effects of Nest Appearance and Type of Predator

The Condor, 1987
Nest predation is a primary cause of nesting mortality for many bird species (Skutch 1949, 1966; Nice 1957; Ricklefs 1969; Nilsson 1984). Food limitation and competition also can affect nesting success (see reviews in Martin 1986, 1987). However, the primary role of nest predation in nesting mortality suggests that it can be a strong agent of selection

Effects of nest features and surrounding landscape on predation rates of artificial nests

Bird Study, 1999
Artificial nest predation experiments were carried out in northern Italy in woods which varied in size, isolation and surrounding landscape structure. Multivariate analyses, including logistic regression, showed that: (1) size and isolation of woods did not significantly affect predation rates; (2) nests on the edge of woods did not suffer higher ...
