Abstract
Forest characterisitics (total snag basal area, tree species diversity, and number of tree species) were more reliable predictors of bird use than were snag characterisitics (diameter at breast height, amount of bark, height, and species). Snag management based on selecting suitable forest sites and on maintaining or creating suitable snags within those sites is recommended. -from Authors
