Schemata are interrelated and multiple conflicting schemata can be applied to the same information.

Which schema is selected can depend on factors such as current activation, accessibility, and priming.

1 The male generally removes old nesting material from a site (but often re-uses the same sticks.) The male puts sticks in nest site(s), and then the female selects the cavity where she will lay her eggs.  Dummy nests: HOWR males often build loose dummy nests in other nearby cavities, of <10 to >400 sticks.
