Sažetak
The Nuthatch Sitta europaea is a sedentary, strongly territorial hole-nesting species, in which pair stays together all the year-round and for several years. This study presents clutch size, egg-characteristic and within-clutch egg dimensions variation in Nuthatch Sitta europaea in deciduous forests (Hrvatsko zagorje area ; NW Croatia). Study comprised the period from 2000 to 2002. Clutch size were 5-8 eggs (mean = 6.63, modal = 7 eggs). Egg lenght averaged 19.79 mm, egg breadth 14.43 mm, egg volume 2099.66 mm3 and egg shape index 1.37 (during tree years). Generally, the laying order did not affect egg dimensions (all egg dimensions = p > 0.05). According to the value of %D (= -3.11), Nuthatch follows the "brood-reduction strategy".
