Abstract:

117 nests of Red-breasted Flycatchers in Białowieża primeval forest (NE Poland) are characterised. Most nests (79%) were built in Hornbeam Carpinus betulus and Lime Tilia cordata. Three types of nest sites were distinguished: chimney shaped (26.4%), half-cavities (46.4%), or shelves — the nest is wedged under a piece of bark against the main trunk (27.3%). Most cavity entrances were exposed to the south. Compared to other species of secondary cavity nesters in Białowieża National Park, Red-breasted Flycatchers used cavities of a different shape, with a smaller bottom area, and at a relatively low height above the ground (>>= 4.9 ą 3.12 m). Nesting trees had a smaller diameter (>>= 31.2 ą 21.4 cm) and were more often dead (27%) than trees used by other secondary cavity nesting species. Only four nest sites were used in consecutive seasons.
