ABSTRACT We tested whether temperature loggers (iButtons®) placed inside bird nests could be used to estimate the date the nest hatched or failed and compared their efficiency and cost to observational data. Temperature loggers were more precise (approx. 1 hr error vs. 1–3‐days error for researcher...
