Project Description
Reserva Monte Mojino was awarded funds to study cavity nesting birds in Sonora. A recent survey effort revealed 24 species that are obligate cavity nesters, including seven that have high SJV vulnerability scores. Cavity nesters are among the most vulnerable groups of landbirds in Mexico, but there are few resources available to guide management and conservation actions. This project will provide much-needed information on the abundance and habitat of cavity nesters in three dominant vegetation communities in the region, and identify specific resources (e.g., tree and cacti species) important for populations.
