Our understanding of migratory birds' year‐round ecology and evolution remains patchy
despite recent fundamental advances. Periodic reviews focus future research and inform …

The interactions between avian obligate interspecific brood parasites and their hosts provide
tractable systems for studying coevolutionary processes in nature. This review highlights …

Incubating new ideas about avian reproduction/SJ Reynolds & DC Deeming--The fossil
record and evolution of avian egg nesting and incubation/DC Deeming--Nest construction …

I studied 787 female and 510 male Prothonotary Warblers (Protonotaria citrea) breeding in
southern Illinois, USA, from 1994 to 2000 to test two competing hypotheses that may explain …

Nest fates, causes of nest failure, and identities of nest predators are difficult to determine for
grassland passerines. We developed a miniature video-camera system for use in …

A majority of empirical tests have failed to support the hypothesis that avian nest predation
increases near habitat edges. Of 54 study sites, 13 exhibited an edge effect in any test …

Most species occupy both high‐and low‐quality habitats throughout their ranges. As habitats
become modified through anthropogenic change, low‐quality habitat may become a more …

To reduce the risk of extinction due to climate change, some ecologists have suggested
human‐aided translocation of species, or assisted migration (AM), to areas where climate is …

The interactions between avian interspecific brood parasites and their hosts provide
tractable and informative systems for investigating coevolution. Generally, these …

Why do many hosts accept costly avian brood parasitism even when parasitic eggs and
nestlings differ dramatically in appearance from their own? Scientists argue that evolutionary …
