Effects of forest regeneration on songbird movements in a managed forest landscape of Alberta,Canada
Recent studies have shown that barrier effects exist even in relatively vagile species such as forest songbirds. The objectives
of this study were to determine whether a 560 × 100 m riparian buffer strip of mature forest was used as a movement corridor
by forest songbirds and, if so, to what extent corridor effects persisted as woody vegetation regenerated in the adjacent
clearcut. Over a 4-yr period, juvenile movement rates decreased in the riparian buffer strip and increased in the regenerating
clearcut. Adult movement rates increased in the riparian buffer strip in the first year after logging, then gradually decreased,
while still increasing in the regenerating clearcut. However, both juvenile and adult movement rates were higher in the buffer
strip than in an undisturbed control site. Results suggest that most adults we captured held territories in the vicinity of
the net lanes,and that most of the juveniles captured were dispersing away from their natal territory. Four years after harvest,
juvenile movement rates were higher in the regenerating clearcut than in the riparian buffer strip, but several species had
not yet been captured or detected in the regeneration. Our results suggest that the use of the riparian buffer strip as a
movement corridor decreased with forest regeneration for both adults and juveniles. However, the buffer strip still acted
as a movement corridor for the following species: Philadelphia and Red-eyed Vireos, Red-breasted Nuthatch, and Ovenbird.
