Cavity characteristics, but not habitat, influence nest survival of cavity-nesting birds along a gradient of human impact in the subtropical Atlantic Forest (2015, background): “…daily survival rate of surucua trogon is remarkable because trogons excavated their cavities in very decayed trees (or occasionally in termitaria), a characteristic associated with increased predation risk in other species of birds (Christman and Dhondt, 1997; Wesołowski, 2002; Tozer et al., 2012).”
Lessons from long-term hole-nester studies in a primeval temperate forest (2007, methodology): “It remains doubtful, though, whether man-made woods where the hole supply is reduced by management are representative of the pristine forest situation (Tomiałojć et al 1984; Wesołowski 1989, 2002; Aitken and Martin 2004).”
Selection of Nest Trees by Cavity‐nesting Birds in the Neotropical Atlantic Forest (2011, background): “Those in dead branches or dead trees may be more susceptible to predation (Wesołowski 2002) and more likely to collapse during the breeding season (Vaughan et al. 2003).”
