Do baseline glucocorticoids simultaneously represent fitness and environmental quality in a declining aerial insectivore?
Abstract
Glucocorticoids (GCs) are often interpreted as indicators of disturbance, habitat quality, and fitness in wild populations. However, since most investigations have been unable to examine habitat variability, GC levels, and fitness simultaneously, such interpretations remain largely unvalidated. We combined a quantification of two habitat types, a manipulation of foraging ability (feather‐clipping just prior to nestling rearing), multiple...
