• NEST WEIGHT AND FEMALE HEALTH IN THE BLUE TIT (CYANISTES CAERULEUS) (2006, methodology): “…están relacionadas con el esfuerzo de construcción en algunos años, dependiendo probablemente de las condiciones ambientales. classifi cation of Hansell (2000), building techniques employed by Blue Tits include piling up the moss, interlocking the pieces of straw and dead grass, and fi nally…”
• Consequences of nest reuse for parasite burden and female health and condition in blue tits, Cyanistes caeruleus (2007, background): “Breeding in a nestbox containing an old nest may be advantageous if it reduces nest building effort (Collias & Collias 1984; Moller 1990; Hansell 2000 ).”
• Microclimate in tree cavities and nest-boxes: implications for hole-nesting birds (2017, background): “61 The insulating function of nest cavities may be particularly important for altricial 62 passerines, whose nestlings are initially incapable of thermoregulation (Hansell, 2000).”
• Patterns of parental care in vertebrates (2012, background): “Each nest contains hundreds of strands of grass, twigs, or leaf fibres woven tightly together, and each contains a long downward facing, narrow entrance tunnel (Hansell 2000; Fig.”
• Nest scrape design and clutch heat loss in Pectoral Sandpipers (Calidris melanotos) (2002, background): “Construction behaviour is widespread among birds, where most species build a nest of some description in which to lay their eggs (Collias & Collias 1984; Hansell 2000 ).”
