Microclimate shifts in nest‐boxes and natural cavities throughout reproduction

Animals breeding in nest‐boxes experience nesting environments in which they did not originally evolve. Despite the central importance of nesting microclimate for offspring fitness, little is known about the thermal properties of human‐provided nest sites compared to natural ones. In particular, com...
