In a study conducted in Ontario, Canada, on the Ovenbird (Seiurus aurocapillus), an area-sensitive songbird, Burke and Nol (1998) found lower invertebrate biomass in smaller fragments and concluded that less food was available to these birds.
Cedar bogs support high breeding bird densities (425 to 554 pairs per 100 acres or 40 ha) of species such as ovenbirds (Seiurus aurocapillus), yellowthroats (Geothlypus trichas), and prairie, prothonotary, and hooded warblers (Dendroica discolor, Protonotaria citrea, and Wilsonia citrna, respectively).
The most frequently observed species during the spring migration were the White-throated Sparrow (n = 5, Zonotrichia albicollis), Common Yellowthroat (n = 5, Geothlypis trichas), and Ovenbird (n = 5, Seiurus aurocapillus).
