	Early Arrival is not Advantageous for Rufous Bush-Robins Parasitized by Common Cuckoos (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		Discussion.--Male Rufous Bush-Robins that ar- rived in the breeding area early had higher breeding success if their nests were not parasitized or depre- dated because their females reproduced earlier in the breeding season, laid larger first clutches, and pro- duced more fledglings than females paired with lat- er-arriving males (Table 1).
		A gens of Cuckoo Cuculus cano- rus parasitizing Rufous Bush Chat Cercotrichas galactotes.
		Rufous Bush-Robins show a marked preference for nesting in the vineyards, although we have found nests in fruit trees, groups of prickly pear (Opuntia spp.), and directly on the ground (covered by the vineyard canopy).
