Habitat fragmentation and habitat loss are considered major threats to biodiversity (Wilson 1992). One unavoidable consequence of habitat fragmentation is an increase in edge habitats, which in turn affects abiotic and biotic processes in the landscape (Murcia 1995). Nesting birds may disproportionately favor the edges of forest patch-es due to the availability of forest cover and abun-dant food, but may suffer high nest predation as a result. Therefore, edges may become“ecological traps”leading to severe population declines in edge-nesting species (Gates and Gysel 1978). The effects of habitat fragmentation are not homogeneous. There are species-specif ic responses (e.g., Warkentin et al. 1995, Bourqu
