Red-headed Woodpecker (Melanerpes erythrocephalus) winter roost-site selection in a burned forest stand

ABSTRACT In temperate regions, winter is characterized by high thermoregulatory demands and low food availability. For woodpeckers, winter survival depends on selecting habitat that provides both s...
