• Habitat-specific behavioural thermoregulation by black rat snakes (Elaphe obsoleta obsoleta) (2002, methodology): “Blouin-Demers and Weatherhead (2001b) recommended that de−db be used instead of E, which we do here.”
• Variation in top‐down control of avian reproductive success across a fragmentation gradient (2003, background): “It is unclear whether this decline is the result of increased predation on the snakes, changes in foraging behavior of snakes (Blouin-Demers and Weatherhead 2001), or other factors.”
• Factors Associated with Grassland Bird Species Richness: The Relative Roles of Grassland Area, Landscape Structure, and Prey (2006, background): “Landscape changes can also expose a higher proportion of individuals to nest predation and brood parasitism (Robinson et al. 1995; Blouin-Demers and Weatherhead 2001 ) and limit the movement of individuals among habitat units (Be´ lisle et al. 2001; Ricketts 2001) – all of which may result in highe”
• An experimental test of the link between foraging, habitat selection and thermoregulation in black rat snakes Elaphe obsoleta obsoleta (2001, methodology): “For example, in a 4- year telemetry study (Blouin-Demers & Weatherhead 2001a), black rat snakes were visible on only 30% of 3715 occasions that they were located.”
• THE EFFECTS OF PATCH SHAPE ON INDIGO BUNTINGS: EVIDENCE FOR AN ECOLOGICAL TRAP (2005, background): “…active predators of songbirds during the breeding season (Fitch 1963); previous work has indicated that snakes prefer edge habitats (Durner and Gates 1993, Blouin-Demers and Weatherhead 2001) and can respond to adult activity near nest sites when searching for prey (Mullin et al. 1998).”
• Thermal quality influences habitat selection at multiple spatial scales in milksnakes (2006, background): “In the thermally challenging environment of our study area, open habitats and edges have environmental temperatures that deviate less from Tset (Blouin-Demers & Weatherhead, 2001b; Row & Blouin-Demers, 2006b), and these habitats offer characteristics that benefit thermoregulation (increased solar ra”
