Figure 4.

Regressions depict strong relationships between regenerating vegetation and bird community variables in early and late initiation. Figures depict the following relationships in early initiation: (a) ground‐foraging bird abundance against ground‐story Shannon diversity. Figures depict the following relationships in late initiation: (b) shrub‐nesting bird abundance against percent canopy cover, (c) total bird abundance against sapling median height, and (d) bird Shannon diversity against total shrub cover
