Study site
Name Askainen
ID ASK
Country Finland
Size (ha) 300
Major site changes Yes. In the first year, 1941, the number of boxes was small, ca. 10, and they were concentrated near the country estate of Lempisaari, but the number gradually increased up to ca. 100 in 1953, and the boxes became spreard around the island.
Latitude 60° 29' N
Latitude 21° 45' E
Number of nest boxes (min) 10
Number of nest boxes (max) 155
Vegetation Type Mixed. Coniferous-forest dominated landscape with scattered agricultural fields. The forests in the area are dominated by Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris), which forms mixed stands with spruce (Picea abies), birch (Betula spp.) and oak (Quercus robur).
Description of study site

The data are based on the nestcards filled by prof. Lars von Haartman. Original nest cards are stored in the Finnish Museum of Natural History (Helsinki). During the early years, 1941-1950, the nestcards were only filled for pied flycatcher, although a few pairs of great tit is known to breed in the area. Sometimes the handwriting and abbreviations in the cards are hard to interpret. Basic description of the study sites can be found in:

Start year 1941
End year 1994
Continuous collection of data No.
Gap years 1990, 1992
Longest data collection 49 years
Parental ID's recorded Yes
List of basic breeding data collected Lay date, clutch size, number nestlings. Deficient data for some nests. In most cases, hatching dates are not given in the database, although they can be estimated from the existing information.
Description of the protocols for breeding data collection Nest boxes were normally checked weekly to record final clutch size, number of nestlings, and to ring parents and nestlings. First egg laying date was calculated back from the number of non-incubated eggs.
Description of the protocols for taking individual level measurements NA
Experimental manipulations No
Description of experimental manipulations NA
Predation events recorded Yes. Predated nests are coded together with some other obvious reasons for nest failure.
How are second clutches recorded? Replacement and second clutches are included. Their classification is mainly based on their timing of breeding in each study year (done during the field season).
Catching data
Individual data Yes
Type of individual data Bird ID
Feeding data Not in the database, but information on diet, feeding frequencies and nestling growth can be found in the literature: von Haartman, L. 1954. Der Trauerfliegenschnäpper III. Die Nahrungsbiologie. - Acta Zoologica
