The difference in foraging behavior most likely affects the nuthatches and brown creepers by-
A
allowing the birds to avoid many types of predators
B
reducing competition between the birds for resources
C
preventing the birds from interbreeding with each other
D
establishing dominance between the birds for nesting sites
