- W4231517306 abstract "Abstract Relatively little is known about the role of predation in shaping patterns of coexistence and nest dispersion of songbird species. It has been hypothesized that predators diversify songbird communities by preying more heavily on individuals and species with greatest similarity in nest-site use. To investigate the importance of predation, we tested how predators responded to assemblages of artificial songbird nests that varied in nest-site placement, vegetation features, and nest dispersion patterns in boreal forest of west-central Alberta, Canada. Variability among nest sites was achieved by deploying wicker nests throughout a gradient of vegetation cover and by deploying nests to simulate two- and three-species assemblages. Two-species assemblages, comprising 20 simulated White-throated Sparrow (Zonotrichia leucophrys) and 3 simulated Hermit Thrush (Catharus guttatus) nests, and three-species assemblages, comprising 10 simulated White-throated Sparrow, 9 simulated Hermit Thrush, and 4 simulated Chipping Sparrow (Spizella passerina) nests, were deployed in eight replicate plots. We hypothesized that predators would be more adept at locating and depredating (1) nests characterized by similar vegetation features in nest patches; (2) nests of similar appearance or nest guild; and (3) clumped versus randomly distributed nests. Contrary to predictions, predation did not increase as variance in vegetation of nest sites decreased across 16 nest-predation plots, nor did variance in vegetation of successful nests increase as predation level increased across 15 nest-predation plots. The addition of one species' nest type to assemblages did not result in lower predation rates. Predators also did not depredate more clumped nests than randomly distributed nests. Overall, predation did not appear to influence patterns of songbird species coexistence or nest dispersion. Abilities of predators to discriminate among less-similar versus more-similar nest sites and nest-dispersion patterns are probably species-specific; that is probably related to the hunting behavior of predators (i.e. use of olfactory and visual cues) and territory size." @default.
