Until now, this research has been hampered by the difficulties inherent in observing nest activities. Video Surveillance of Nesting Birds highlights the use of miniature video cameras and recording equipment yielding new important and some unanticipated insights into breeding bird biology, including previously undocumented observations of hatching, incubation, fledging, diurnal and nocturnal activity patterns, predator identification, predator-prey interactions, and cause-specific rates of nest loss. This seminal contribution to bird reproductive biology uses tools capable of generating astonishing results with the potential for fresh insights into bird conservation, management, and theory. 410 0$aStudies in avian biology ;$vno. 43. 606 $aBird populations 606 $aBirds$xMonitoring$xMethodology 606 $aBirds$xNests 606 $aBirds$xBehavior 606 $aOrnithology$xMethodology 606 $aOrnithology$xTechnique 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aBird populations. 615 0$aBirds$xMonitoring$xMethodology. 615 0$aBirds$xNests. 615 0$aBirds$xBehavior. 615 0$aOrnithology$xMethodology. 615 0$aOrnithology$xTechnique. 676 $a598.072/32 700 $aRibic$b Christine A$0849869 701 $aThompson$b Frank R$g(Frank Richard)$02720 701 $aPietz$b Pamela J$0849870 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910461847403321 996 $aVideo surveillance of nesting birds$91897562 997 $aUNINA
