Resumen
Se estudiaron diversos aspectos de la nidificación del Ostrero Común (Haematopus palliatus) en dos áreas (islote y continente) en el estuario de Bahía Blanca, durante dos temporadas reproductivas consecutivas. Hubo sincronía en la puesta de los huevos en ambas áreas y en los dos años de estudio, ocurriendo en un período de 20?30 días. El tamaño promedio de la nidada fue similar en las dos áreas, con una moda de dos huevos, mientras que nidadas de tres huevos fueron halladas únicamente en el islote. Los huevos fueron más grandes (más largos y de mayor volumen) en el continente. La perturbación por la presencia humana, con un mayor impacto en el continente, sería el principal condicionante de la mayor densidad de parejas y de nidos hallada en el islote. El mayor grado de cobertura vegetal y la cercanía a la línea de marea de tormenta en los nidos del islote podrían estar vinculados a la protección de los huevos frente a potenciales ataques por parte de predadores.
Nesting of the american oystercatcher (haematopus palliatus) in the Bahía Blanca estuary, Argentina. Several aspects of the reproduction of the american oystercatcher (haematopus palliatus) were studied in two areas (continent and islet) in the bahía blanca estuary during two consecutive breeding seasons. Laying dates were synchronous in each area and in both years, occurring in a period of 20–30 days. Mean clutch size was similar in both areas, with a mode of two eggs, while nests with three eggs were only found in the islet. Eggs were bigger (larger and more voluminous) in the continent than in the islet. Human disturbance, with a greater impact on the continent, could explain the higher density of pairs and nests found on the islet. Higher plant cover and proximity to the storm line in the islet nests could be associated to the protection of eggs from the potential attacks by predators.
