Objective:To quantifythe materials used byseveral bird species in an urbanized environment.Methods: We evaluated the composition of 20 nests in the campus of Universidad Nacional, Costa Rica. Results:53% of nests contained anthropogenic waste,classified in 13 types;the most common were wool, strings and thread. The species with the highest percentage of anthropogenic nest weight was Campylorhynchus rufinucha.Conclusion:There is awidespread use of anthropogenic materials to nest in these urban Costa Rican birds. 2020 otro 1659-4266 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=515664454015 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=5156 UNED Research Journal / Cuadernos de Investigación UNED application/pdf Universidad Estatal a Distancia UNED Research Journal / Cuadernos de Investigación UNED (Costa Rica) Num.2 Vol.12 |
