Question

Competition between wetland birds in the Everglades is fierce due to limited nesting sites, which are a crucial resource for successful reproduction. With thousands of birds migrating to the Everglades during the rainy season, the demand for nesting sites far exceeds the available supply.

The outcome of this competition directly impacts the reproductive success and survival of the bird populations in the Everglades.
