Full textKnowing the habitat preference of a species is of crucial importance in order to sketch measures with conservational purposes. In this study we analyse the foraging habitat preferences of a threatened species and how they change through the breeding season. Habitat availability varies due to changes in agricultural activities such as ploughing, sowing, or harvesting. Our results evidence that this species select different habitat types according to breeding season stage. In the beginning of the season prefer to forage in ploughed fields while during chick rearing and post-fledging prefer cotton fields and cereal stubbles. Thus changes in agricultural activities must be considered in habitat selection studies. Lesser kestrels prefer to forage in low height and sparse cover, probably because of higher prey availability in this kind of habitats. Males and females don’t show significant differences in several hunting parameters. Success rate was higher in cereal stubble and during incubation and lower in ploughed fields and in the pre-incubation period. Lesser kestrels take less time to make a strike in cereal stubble and more in cotton plantations. In cereals prey capture takes less time while in cotton takes more hunting effort. The number of strikes per minute of observation didn’t varied significantly between habitats.

Full textWithin the San Francisco Bay Area, Western Snowy Plovers (Alexandrinus nivosus nivosus) nest and winter in former salt ponds. They face a number of threats including human-altered habitats and high levels of predation by mesopredators and raptors. The South Bay Salt Pond Restoration Project (the Project) is a large wetland restoration project that will change and potentially eliminate Snowy Plover habitat in the region. As the Project returns salt ponds to tidal wetland, there will be less of the dry, flat, and sparsely vegetated habitat that plovers need for breeding and wintering habitat. A greater understanding of the specific microhabitat requirements for high quality plover foraging sites is needed. In particular, it is important for managers to understand what constitutes high quality wintering habitat for Snowy Plover numbers. This study assessed the characteristics at sites where Snowy Plovers winter in former salt ponds, especially habitat traits related to promoting plover foraging. Analysis of plover foraging habitat showed that plovers were associated with increasing plant height, water cover, and distance from perches and levees. This information is designed to inform restoration and management decisions in efforts to meet Snowy Plover recovery goals in the South San Francisco Bay.
