“…Contrary to invertebrates, fire caused an immediate decline in the density of small mammals, especially the disappearance of the most common rodent species in the valley-the root vole Microtus oeconomus (Borowski et al in preparation). Rodents are a basic food item for all three birds of prey negatively affected by the fire-short-eared owl (Lesiński et al 2016), montagu's harrier (Kitowski et al 2021) and marsh harrier (Brzeziński and Żmihorski 2009). Since the availability of prey is one of the main factors influencing population densities and habitat use in birds of prey (Korpimäki and Norrdahl 1991;Newton 2007), the temporal absence of rodents could largely contribute to the observed short-term decline of these species on burned areas.…”
