Ortolan Bunting (Emberiza hortulana) Science Article 2 abstract This paper describes song structure and repertoire variation in ortolan buntings (Emberiza hortulana) from an isolated and declining Norwegian population, analysed by using the minimal unit of production approach. Males from the studied population sang strophes similar to both dialects found in geographically closest populations in Sweden. […]

Foraging Ovenbird Follows Armadillo
Ovenbird (Seiurus aurocapilla) Science Article 5 abstract Report an observation of a foraging Ovenbird (Seiurus uurocapiZZus) following a ninebandedarmadillo (Dasypus novemcinctus), near Gainesville, Florida. Close attendance only while the armadillo was moving and disturbing leaf litter suggests the Ovenbird was taking advantage of increased prey availability caused by the armadillo’s flushing of insects Douglas J.

Effects of forest edges on Ovenbird demography in a managed forest landscape.
Ovenbird (Seiurus aurocapilla) Science Article 8 abstract We studied the reproductive ecology of Ovenbirds (Seiurus aurocapillus) for 3 years in a primarily forested landscape in northern Wisconsin. We searched for and monitored nests in large, closed-canopy northern hardwood forests adjacent to recent clearcuts (

HABITAT FRAGMENTATION AND PAIRING SUCCESS IN THE OVENBIRD (SEIURUS AUROCAPILLUS)
Ovenbird (Seiurus aurocapilla) Science Article 2 abstract In 1990 and 1991, we determined the proportion of Ovenbird (Seiurus aurocapillus)territorial males that were paired in a 25-ha plot in an extensive forest (>350 km 2) inQu6bec, and compared it to pairing success in populations breeding in nearby forest fragments (4.5-53.0h a) in Quebec and Ontario.

FOREST PRODUCTIVITY PREDICTS INVERTEBRATE BIOMASS ANDOVENBIRD (SEIURUS AUROCAPILLUS) REPRODUCTION INAPPALACHIAN LANDSCAPES
Ovenbird (Seiurus aurocapilla) Science Article 1 abstract Forest-floor detrital food webs are sustained by annual inputs of leaf fall.However, it is unknown whether this bottom-up effect extends to vertebrates feeding onthe detrital food web. We hypothesized that reproductive success of Ovenbirds (Seiurusaurocapillus L.) is a function of macroinvertebrate biomass within the detrital food web,and that […]
Identifying Ovenbird (Seiurus aurocapillus) habitat in a suburbanizing landscape: The use of GIS and regional landscape approaches in conservation
Ovenbird (Seiurus aurocapilla) Science Article 3 abstract To conduct a repeatable process for detecting the presence or absence of the Ovenbird inpotential habitat patches within the seven county Triangle Region of North Carolina (Chatham,Franklin, Lee, Durham, Orange, Johnston and Wake).

MODELING POPULATION GROWTH OF THE OVENBIRD (SEIURUSAUROCAPILLA) IN THE SOUTHERN APPALACHIANS
Ovenbird (Seiurus aurocapilla) Science Article 6 abstract Studies of source-sink dynamics are oft en prompted by concerns aboutnegative population trends. Estimates of population trajectories are usually based onassumptions about survival rates and empirical measures of fecundity. Most modelsignore the infl uence of the rates of renesting and multiple brooding. Andrei L. Podolsky et al, The […]
