Effects of Nest Characteristics on Breeding Success of Great Tits Parus major (2003, background): “Consequently, many characteristics of nesting are distinctive for particular species (Hansell 2000).”
Predators and the breeding bird: behavioral and reproductive flexibility under the risk of predation (2009, background): “HANSELL, M. (2000). Bird nests and construction behaviour.”
The Energetic Costs of Nest Building in Birds (2013, background): “This is partly because female-built nests are relatively uncommon in comparison with male-built and bi-parentally built nests (Collias and Collias, 1984; Hansell, 2000).”
Number and colour composition of nest lining feathers predict eggshell bacterial community in barn swallow nests: an experimental study (2010, background): “Many birds use feathers as lining material (Harrison 1975; Cramp 1998; Hansell 2000) and, although it has commonly been associated with nest insulation (Møller 1984; Hilton et al.”
Latitudinal variation in blue tit and great tit nest characteristics indicates environmental adjustment (2012, background): “Most bird species build a nest structure in which to lay their eggs (Collias & Collias, 1984; Hansell, 2000).”
An Overview of the Factors Influencing the Morphology and Thermal Properties of Avian Nests (2013, background): “Reproduction is often thought of as one of the most energetically costly periods of the life-cycle and in birds is split into the phases of nest construction, egg production, incubation and chick rearing (Hansell, 2000; Dawson et al., 2005).”
Development of tool use in New Caledonian crows: inherited action patterns and social influences (2006, background): “It has been argued (Hansell 2000) that because nest building rivals NC crows’ TOB with respect to diversity of materials used and complexity of their combination, TOB may not be cognitively more complex, and may be under tight genetic control, as nest building seems to be.”
First‐egg date and air temperature affect nest construction in Blue Tits Cyanistes caeruleus, but not in Great Tits Parus major (2011, methodology): “Variability in nest construction is documented (Kern 1984, Hansell 2000, Alabrudzińska et al. 2003, Tomás et al . 2006, Moreno et al. 2009). The question arises of how much of this variation reflects the particular situation in which a bird builds its nest, which may be influenced by the availabilit”
Shrub encroachment and vertebrate diversity: A global meta‐analysis (2018, background): “Mammals and herpetofauna may exhibit less variation in use of cover and foraging modes than birds, for example, leading to increased sensitivity to shrub encroachment (Eldridge et al., 2011; Slagsvold, 2001).”
