Data from: Assessing factors associated with changes in the numbers of birds visiting gardens in winter: are predators partly to blame?
The factors governing the recent declines observed in many songbirds have received much research interest, in particular whether increases of avian predators have had a negative effect on any of their prey species. In addition, further discussion has centred on whether or not the choice of model formulation has an effect on model inference. The study goal was to evaluate changes in the number of 10 songbird species in relation to a suite of environmental covariates, testing for any evidence in support of a predator effect using multiple model formulations to check for consistency in the results. We compare two different approaches to the analysis of long-term garden bird monitoring data. The first approach models change in the prey species between 1970 and 2005 as a function of environmental covariates, including the abundance of an avian predator, whilst the second uses a change-change approach. Significant negative relationships were found between Eurasian sparrowhawk Accipiter nisus and three of the 10 species analysed, namely house sparrow Passer domesticus, starling Sturnus vulgaris and blue tit Cyanistes caeruleus. The results were consistent under both modelling approaches. It is not clear if this is a direct negative impact on the overall populations of these species or a behavioural response of the prey species to avoid feeding stations frequented by sparrowhawks (which may in turn have population consequences, by reducing available resources). The species showing evidence of negative effects of sparrowhawks were three of the four species most at risk to sparrowhawk predation according to their prevalence in the predator's diet. The associations could be causal in nature, although in practical terms the reduction in the rate of change in numbers visiting gardens accredited to sparrowhawks is relatively small, and so unlikely to be the main driver of observed population declines.
