Behavioral Interactions Between Hemiboreal Setophaga Warblers and their Implications for Species-Specific Habitat Selection
Using playback experiments, Levy will test a behavioral interaction between three hemiboreal Setophaga warblers that has been hypothesized to influence species-specific habitat selection. Together with surveys of bird population densities and forest vegetation from 1992–93 and 2021–22, the experiments will allow Levy to explore the role of interspecies interactions in habitat selection within the broader context of landscape-scale change in forest structure and avian assemblage composition.
The Frances M. Peacock Scholarship for Native Bird Habitat
To provide financial aid to study areas in the United States that provide seasonal habitat for threatened or endangered native birds and to tend useful information for land-management decisions.
