“…Similar to Burkman (1993), we found Yellow Rail occurrence was greatest at less than 2 years post burn, while we detected individuals in few sites at greater than 2 years post burn. Austin and Buhl (2013) reported similar results where, at a larger scale, time since fire was the most important factor explaining Yellow Rail presence during the breeding season. In addition, shorter fire return intervals in pine savanna ecosystems have been shown to influence the occur- rence of other winter grassland bird species of conservation concern such as Henslow's Sparrow (Ammodramus henslowii) (Tucker et al 2003;Bechtoldt and Stouffer 2005).…”

“…Burkman (1993) found that on the breeding grounds, Yellow Rail were more likely to be found in burned habitats having lower percentage of shrubs and higher percentage of sedges (Carex lasiocarpa) than control plots, suggesting suitability of habitat for Yellow Rail diminishes with the encroachment of woody plant species. Similarly, two previous studies conducted on Yellow Rail in Michigan noted a negative relationship between time since fire and Yellow Rail presence (Burkman 1993;Austin and Buhl 2013). Austin and Buhl (2013) found fire was the most important factor explaining the presence of Yellow Rail on their breeding grounds.…”
