| Résumé : | During the period 1995 to 1999, 340 nests containing 619 nestlings of Stock Doves were monitored. All breeding took place in nest boxes. Almost 47 % of the nestlings came from second broods. Nearly 9 % of nestlings were found dead. The average number of hatchlings per brood per year amounted to 3.11. Recaptures of banded birds returning from their wintering places indicated that most came from Southwest France and Spain. These findings are discussed. Three recaptures would indicate that the birds do return to their nesting territories. |
