Postfledging survival of the Worthington's Marsh Wren (Cistothorus palustris griseus)

The postfledging period of a passerine bird's life is increasingly recognized as an understudied component of songbird conservation, because the habitat needs of fledglings can differ from nesting adults and survivorship during this period can substantially affect population growth rates. We st...
