The paradox of nest reuse: early breeding benefits reproduction, but nest reuse increases nest predation risk.

Clutch size and nestling survival in non-predated clutches Laying date of the first egg had a highly significant negative effect on clutch size (model #4: − 0.178 ± 0.014 SE, t = − 12.8, n = 736, p < 0.001).
