| Résumé : | Increasing evidence suggests that birds minimize the risk of nest predation by preferentially settling in territories with low predator encounter rate. However, little is known about whether they are also able to assess the actual risk of nest predation at the time of habitat occupancy and choose their breeding territories accordingly. Here, we tested this prediction experimentally, using artificial nests placed in |
