Abstract

"The objective of this study was to provide more information on the habitat use and requirements of Red-shouldered Hawks in southeastern Missouri. The study was designed to learn more about the hawk's nesting habitat characteristics, foraging habitats, and prey preferences. Because of the increased food demands on breeding hawks during the nestling phase, special emphasis was put on this period. The three major areas of the hawk's habitat selection and behavior that were studied are described below."--Page 4.
