Abstract:
... Conspecific attraction has been found in many songbird species, but the benefit of settling near conspecifics is generally unknown. Previous research indicates that Yellow Warblers (Setophaga petechia) use conspecific cues to select breeding habitat, and cluster territories more closely around experimental playbacks mimicking high conspecific density. We were interested if Yellow Warblers at sites ...

Abstract:
... Theoretical models of habitat selection often incorporate negative density dependence. Despite strong negative density‐dependent effects on habitat selection, more recent studies indicate that animals settle near members of their own (conspecific) and other species (heterospecific) when selecting habitat with social cues. Social cue use for habitat selection is particularly common among songbirds, ...

3. Not all nesting guild members are alike: nest predators and conspecific abundance differentially influence nest survival in the ground-nesting Ovenbird (Seiurus aurocapilla) and Veery (Catharus fuscescens)

Abstract:
... At the nest guild level, nest predation is a major cause of failure for many passerines. Species differ in behaviors that influence nest predation risk, presenting a challenge to nest survival analyses at the nest guild level. At our study site in southeastern New York, previous findings have suggested rodent nest predator abundance strongly drives daily nest survival of the Veery (Catharus fusces ...
