Nesting success and productivity of Tucuman Parrots (Amazona tucumana) in high-altitude forests of Argentina: do they differ from lowland Amazona parrots?
Most of our knowledge of reproduction of wild parrots in the Neotropics comes from studies of tropical lowland species, with few studies addressing species of high-altitude forests. We studied the reproductive biology of Tucuman Parrots (Amazona tucumana) in north-western Argentina between 2004 and 2009. We obtained data on reproductive output for 86 nests and on causes of mortality for 94 nest...
متن کاملNesting of Long-billed Curlews on Cultivated Fields
During the spring and summer of 1986, I studied the distribution and breeding biology of five rare birds in the Oklahoma Panhandle: Ferruginous Hawk (Hrrtcv regalis), Golden Engle (Aquiln cht-pctos), Prairie Falcon (Fnlco incsicn~rzrs), Mountain Plover (Clmradrirrs nzontnirrrs) and Long-billed Curlew (N~rinriiirrs ainrricn~iris). Longbilled Curlewsare regular migrants through the western half o...
متن کاملNesting Success of Ohio's Endangered Common Tern
Nesting success of Ohio's endangered common tern (Sterna hirundo) population was studied during 1980 at Lucas County Port Authority Facility No. 3 (F3) located near Toledo in Maumee Bay, Lake Erie. Ninety-one clutches in three of eight tern subcolonies at this site were studied in detail. Sixty-nine percent (157/229) of the eggs failed to hatch, and abandonment of nests during incubation was re...
متن کاملReduced parental care, compensatory behaviour and reproductive costs of thick-billed murres equipped with data loggers
Theoretical models predict that in species with obligate biparental care, individuals will partially compensate for decreased parental effort by their partners as a stable evolutionary strategy. Full compensation may occur when breeding success is an accelerating function of parental effort, especially in long-lived bird species. We experimentally examined the effect of time-depth recorders (TD...
متن کاملNest-site Selection and Nesting Success of Cavity-nesting Birds in High Elevation Forest Drainages
ABssAcr.-We identified habitat features that characterized successful and unsuccessful nest sites, nest sites vs. random sites, and differences among coexisting species of cavitynesting birds for 356 nests in central Arizona. Live and, more commonly, dead quaking aspens (Populus tremuloides) were used for 88% of all nest sites, but aspens constituted only 12% of all trees in random plots (n = 1...
