A melanin-based trait reflects environmental growth conditions of nestling male Eurasian kestrels (2007, methodology): “Finally, in order to verify whether the data collected from 1998 to 2001 by direct observations were a reliable estimation of real kestrel colouration, we measured grey colouration of 66 nestling male rumps during 2004 in a Spanish kestrel population (Fargallo et al. 2001).”
Cattle grazing, raptor abundance and small mammal communities in Mediterranean grasslands (2007, background): “Natural nests were regularly distributed throughout the study area at a density of 0.25 pairs/km2 (Fargallo et al., 2001).”
Identifying the effectiveness and constraints of conservation interventions: A case study of the endangered lesser kestrel (2009, background): “…increase populations of many species exposed to a shortage of natural nest-sites (e.g. Newton, 1994; Smith et al., 2005 Kurniandaru, 2008) and has been reported to be an effective management tool for both common and american kestrels (Hamerstrom et al., 1973; Village, 1983; Fargallo et al., 2001).”
The heterospecific habitat copying hypothesis: can competitors indicate habitat quality? (2005, background): “All years pooled, laying dates were affected by the interaction between the year and the species (ANOVA model, interaction term: F3,183 ¼ 19.14, p ¼ .001 [in every year laying dates differed between both species]).”
