Mineralogical and textural characteristics of nest building geomaterials used by three sympatric mud-nesting hirundine species

Many hirundine species construct their nests by carrying mud particles from adjacent areas. This study aimed to investigate for the first time the materials that mud-nesting hirundines choose for nest construction from a mineralogical and sedimentological perspective. For this purpose, we sampled ne...
