Ruddy Duck Nesting Success: Do Nest Characteristics Deter Nest Predation?

The Condor, 1999
It has been hypothesized that proximity to edges, timing of nesting, nest concealment or inaccessibility, working singly or in concert, may explain variable nesting success of birds, but results have been mixed. I tested these hypotheses by determining fates and measuring nest-site features of 233 Ruddy Duck (Oxyura jamaicensis) nests near Minnedosa ...

Factors affecting blue goose nesting success

Canadian Journal of Zoology, 1971
Blue geese at McConnell River, N.W.T., lost 20% of eggs, mostly late in incubation. Parasitic jaegers and herring gulls were attracted to the colony and were efficient at finding eggs although geese defended their nests strongly. Since egg loss could only occur in the absence of both geese, jaegers, and gulls acted as scavengers rather than predators.

How Well Do Artificial Nests Estimate Success of Real Nests?

The Condor, 1998
Artificial nests frequently are used to assess levels and patterns of nest predation, but how well these nests measure rates of predation or trends in predation rates at real nests is unclear. We compared predation rates between 58 active Wood Thrush (Hylocichla mustelina) nests paired with 58 artificial nests designed to resemble Wood Thrush nests ...

Nest-Site Characteristics and Nesting Success of the Chestnut Thrush

Ornithological Science, 2018
Nest-site characteristics may affect the daily survival rate of avian nests. We monitored the nests of Chestnut Thrush Turdus rubrocanus breeding in an agricultural landscape near the Lianhuashan Natural Reserve (central China) during the breeding seasons of 2013 and 2014.

Validity of Using Artificial Nests to Assess Duck-Nest Success

The Journal of Wildlife Management, 1998
Artificial nests have been used in numerous studies of nest success because they can provide adequate sample sizes and be placed in accordance with experimental designs. However, the critical assumption that a strong linear relation exists between success of artificial and natural nests has rarely been tested.
