Bird density has been studied along areas with different features in supraforest pastures from two locations in Central Western Pyrenees, Aisa and Borau mountain passes (County of Huesca). Censuses, which have been taken all through the year, report on the formation of breeding bird communities and on those which exploit the studied environments during the postbreeding period. A stronger stability is noticeable in those areas which are higher than 2.000 m above sea level. There, breeding species are mostly highlanders and occurs a lack of strong population fluctuations of arthropods that prevents the invasion by consumers during the postbreeding period. Conversely, in lower areas prevail birds from the forest edge or deforested areas over the highland birds, except for the active large rocky places. In these places, highland birds include the Mediterranean highland factor (paleoxeromontanas).
