Productivity and Nesting Success of Thick-Billed Parrots [PDF]

The Condor, 2002
Abstract We studied productivity and nesting success of the Thick-billed Parrot (Rhynchopsitta pachyrhyncha) during a 7-year period (1995–2001) in five nesting areas at the Sierra Madre Occidental in Mexico. Two breeding areas continue to be the breeding strongholds for the species.

First report on two loggerhead turtle (Caretta caretta) nests in the Aeolian Archipelago (Southern Italy)

Acta Herpetologica, 2022
The Aeolian Archipelago (Southern Tyrrhenian Sea, Italy) hosts important foraging/overwintering habitats for Mediterranean loggerhead sea turtles (Caretta caretta), although nesting sites have never been documented.

Alien vs. Predator: Impacts of Invasive Species and Native Predators on Urban Nest Box Use by Native Birds

Animals, 2023
Many bird species in Australia require tree hollows for breeding. However, assessing the benefits of urban nest boxes to native birds requires frequent monitoring that allows to assess nesting success.

The influence of clutch and brood sizes on nesting success of the biscutate swift, Streptoprocne biscutata (Aves: Apodidae)

Zoologia (Curitiba), 2011
The nesting success of three colonies of Streptoprocne biscutata (Sclater, 1866), and the influence of clutch and brood size on nesting success of species were studied. Overall, apparent nesting success was 58% and Mayfield nesting success was 53%.

Do Artificial Nests Simulate Nest Success of Greater Sage-Grouse?

Human-Wildlife Interactions, 2013
Artificial nests have been used to study factors affecting nest success because researchers can manipulate them more than natural bird nests. Many researchers have questioned the validity of generalizing the results from artificial nests onto naturally occurring nests.

Breeding of Golden Eagle in Southeast Zacatecas, Mexico

Huitzil, 2019
Studies of reproductive rate, nesting success, and reproductive productivity are useful to evaluate the population status of birds of prey. We introduce the occupation status, nest number, nesting success and productivity in three Golden Eagle nesting ...

Strategic nest site selection in one of the world's largest loggerhead turtle nesting colonies, on Maio Island, Cabo Verde

Oryx, 2023
For species without parental care, such as sea turtles, nest site selection is particularly important for embryo development, hatchling survival and, ultimately, reproductive success. We conducted an 8-year (2012–2019) capture–mark–recapture study of the

Nest-searching cues and studies of nest-site selection and nesting success

Journal of Field Ornithology, 2004
Abstract Locating and monitoring nests are among the most widely used approaches in studies of avian ecology, evolution, and conservation. While several papers outline “best practices” for nest studies, nest-searching techniques are seldom standardized in field investigations because observers generally use strategies that work best for them.
