The influence of predation on the location and design of nests
Original language description
Considered in this chapter are the effects of predation on nest location and design. The location of nests is defined in terms of their placement with respect to topography, micro-scale habitat, orientation, height, vegetative cover, and occurrence of other nests. The design of nests is defined in terms of their building materials, shape, and size. Also considered is how nest ecology is determined by avoidance of predation and how it interacts with other selective factors, such as the requirement to actas a sexual signal, to reduce the impact of parasites or to create a suitable microclimate for offspring growth. Areas where further research attention should be focussed are indicated.
