Nest-site selection, nest survival, productivity, and survival of Spruce Grouse in Wisconsin

Wilson Journal of Ornithology, 2013
Abstract Spruce Grouse (Falcipennis canadensis) are listed as threatened in Wisconsin, and the boreal habitats in which they occur are likely to be threatened by changing climatic conditions. However, the limited information available on Spruce Grouse in the Upper Great Lakes region makes it unclear which habitat features are important for Spruce ...

Intraseasonal patterns in shorebird nest survival are related to nest age and defence behaviour

Oecologia, 2010
Nest survival may vary throughout the breeding season for many bird species, and the nature of this temporal variation can reveal the links between birds, their predators, and other components of the ecosystem. We used program Mark to model patterns in nest survival within the breeding season for shorebirds nesting on arctic tundra.

Nest Site Selection Influences Cinnamon Teal Nest Survival in Colorado

Journal of Wildlife Management, 2020
ABSTRACTNest survival of ducks is partially a function of the spatiotemporal characteristics of the site at which a bird chooses to nest. Nest survival is also a fundamental component of population growth in waterfowl but is relatively unstudied for cinnamon teal (Spatula cyanoptera).

Merriam's Turkey Nest Survival and Factors Affecting Nest Predation by Mammals

Journal of Wildlife Management, 2008
Abstract: Nest success is an important parameter affecting population fluctuations of wild turkeys ( Meleagris gallopavo ). Factors influencing mammalian predation on turkey nests are complicated and not well understood.

Early nest initiation and vegetation density enhance nest survival in Wild Turkeys

open access: yesOrnithology, 2022
Abstract The theory of adaptive habitat selection suggests resource selection by animals should reflect underlying quality, such that individual selection confers an adaptive advantage via increased fitness. Using resource selection functions and nest survival models, we demonstrated that visual obstruction at the nest site was ...
