Nesting Success and Productivity of Hummingbirds in Southwestern New Mexico and Southeastern Arizona
Predation was the major source of nest failure for hummingbirds studied in southwestern New Mexico and southeastern Arizona, accounting for nearly 80% of all failed nest attempts. Predation on eggs was responsible for just over 70% of all losses attributed to predation; predation on nestlings accoun...

Predation on eggs was responsible for just over 70% of all losses attributed to predation; predation on nestlings accounted for <30% of the losses. Nest failures resulting from abandonment, structural failure, and infertility were low and similar to that found in other studies dealing with altricial young. On an annual basis, nesting success ranged from 0% for Costa's Hummingbirds (Calypte costae) in 1976 and 1980, to 80% for Broad-billed Hummingbirds (Cynanthus latirostris) in 1977. Significant differences in egg and nestling survival between early and late nests were found for Black-chinned Hummingbirds (Archilochus alexandri) in one of the three study areas. Average productivity (number of young fledged per female), based on data from all years and each study area, ranged from 0.16 ± 0.27 [SD] young per female for Costa's Hummingbirds to 2.32 ± 0.08 for Broad-billed Hummingbirds. Productivity for Black-chinned Hummingbirds, the most numerous of the five species studied, averaged 1.16 ± 0.87, while that of Violet-crowned Hummingbirds (Amazilia violiceps) averaged 1.43 ± 0.02. Productivity for Magnificent Hummingbirds (Eugenes fulgens), which nested only during 1976, was 1.16 young per female. Results of the present study are consistent with those of previous studies that have dealt with nesting female hummingbirds, and suggest that predation and productivity are more generalized than might be expected based on the range of habitats occupied.</description><identifier>ISSN: 0043-5643</identifier><identifier>EISSN: 2162-5204</identifier><identifier>CODEN: WILBAI</identifier><language>eng</language><publisher>Lawrence, KS: Wilson Ornithological Society</publisher><subject>Animal and plant ecology ; Animal nesting ; Animal, plant and microbial ecology ; Animals ; Autoecology ; Biological and medical sciences ; Bird nesting ; Canyons ; Eggs ; Female animals ; Fundamental and applied biological sciences.
