Twelve sites in the Shenendoah Valley are mistnetted for breeding birds each year. We coordinate 68 off road point count trails for the U.S. Forest Service in Virginia. We conduct mistnetting and transect counts of central Myanmar. Several of our projects have involved determining the best means to census birds given the variablitiy and logistics of monitoring bird population. The proper technique of a census depends on the goals of the project. Biology/Life Science Chemistry Earth/Space Science Environmental Science ... Home

67. Barrow Common, Breeding Birds Survey 1999
    breeding birds Survey 1999 of Barrow Common By Michael ES Rooney. Yellowhammer, 15, territories. Birds breeding at Barrow Common in 1999 Systematic List.  
    http://www.northcoastal.freeserve.co.uk/bcbreedingbirds.htm
    
    Extractions: Situated less than a kilometre south of Brancaster Staithe, Barrow Common comprises some 33 hectares of acidic grassland and scrub with small areas of secondary woodland. It is listed as a County Wildlife Site and although some vegetation survey work has been carried out by the Norfolk Wildlife Trust, very little published information exists on the value of the Common as a habitat for birds. To help fill this gap in knowledge a breeding bird survey was carried out in 1999, the results of which are presented in this report. The survey results define the breeding bird community at this point in time and will provide a baseline against which to measure future change. They may also be helpful in informing any future decisions on the management of the Common. The winter bird community has yet to be investigated in detail but some casual recording has been undertaken by the author in recent years. This has mainly focused on roosting passerines and the opportunity has been taken to present this information here as an appendix to help give a more rounded view of the ornithological value of the site.

    Extractions: Home Birds Frequently asked questions Probably nothing. A young bird alone on the ground has not necessarily been abandoned. The young of many birds will fledge after they grow feathers, but before they are able to fly. They spend a day or two on the ground before their feather development is complete. It is really best not to interfere. The parents will be close by and come to feed the bird as soon as it is safe. If the bird is in a vulnerable position it will do no harm to move it into shelter but not too far away as the parents will then be unable to find it. Touching a bird will not make the parents abandon it. Watch carefully - if the parents don't return and the youngster has definitely been abandoned then please email Wildlife Enquiries using the address on this page for further advice.

    Extractions: @import "main.css"; The Rare Breeding Birds Panel was formed in 1972 by representatives of the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds, the British Trust for Ornithology, The Nature Conservancy Council and British Birds . The present Panel is made up of representatives of the Joint Nature Conservation Committee, RSPB, BTO, and the Association of County Report Editors, together with two independent members and a Secretary. The Panel's prime function is to act as a secure depository of sensitive information on the breeding of rare birds in Britain. As its database has grown, the information it contains has proved to be of considerable value to the three country conservation agencies and a confidential report is compiled for them each year, though omitting nest locations if requested by the observer. An annual report for public consumption, with nest locations grouped by county or region, is published in the journal British Birds . Commencing with a report for 1996, a short additional report on the occurrence of the rarer non-native species breeding in Britain has also been published in

Contact Us The First PA BBA The Second PA BBA Differences Between the Atlases The Breeding Bird Atlas Project The Breeding Bird Atlas idea itself stemmed from an atlas effort that took place in Great Britain from 1968 to 1972. Ornithologists there dramatically improved their knowledge of the islands' breeding bird distribution when they divided all of Britain and Ireland into survey blocks. More than 10,000 contributors went into the field to look for breeding birds in particular blocks and report their findings.

    Extractions: Development of Management Objectives for Breeding Birds in the Mississippi Alluvial Valley Allan J. Mueller , Daniel J. Twedt , and Charles R. Loesch ABSTRACT Although every physiographic area is unique, the methodology applied here should be applicable in other situations. INTRODUCTION Bird Conservation Plans (BCPs) for each physiographic area will make critical contributions to the national Partners In Flight (PIF) conservation plan. To be most useful, these regional BCPs should promote on-the-ground conservation actions by developing quantified, site-specific habitat and population objectives. As a model for the PIF planning process, the North American Waterfowl Management Plan has had great success in putting conservation on the ground through the preparation of detailed regional plans with objectives that focus conservation efforts, provide funding justifications, and provide perspective on the "big picture." Frequently we do not have firm scientific information to quantify conservation issues. However, if we wait for all of the information that we think we require, the time for effective conservation action may pass. We therefore must move forward and make conservation recommendations as soon as possible, based on the best information currently available. As new information becomes known, recommendations can be modified. This iterative method of operation, called adaptive management, is becoming widely accepted in the conservation/scientific community (Franklin 1995, Kirchhoff et al. 1995, Meffe and Viederman 1995, Petit et al. 1995). This paper presents a general model for setting detailed, regional bird conservation objectives, and describes the application of this model, using the best available information in the Mississippi Alluvial Valley (MAV).

    Extractions: What is a Bird Species in Quebec About the data About the text What is a bird? Birds differ from other animals by a few easily definable characteristics, almost all of which have been dictated by flight. Firstly, birds, and only birds, have feathers. Whether or not a bird species has retained the ability to fly, the body architecture of all bird species is remarkably similar. In order to fly, a bird must overcome two basic limitations: reduction of weight and increase of power; most of the adaptations undergone in this class of animals have been in response to these limitations. The bones of birds are hollow and light, making it easy for them to become airborne, yet strategically reinforced, to withstand the stress of landing, hopping and running. These superlight bones are then powered by massive flight muscles attached to the sternum, or breastbone. How many species are there in Quebec? There are approximately 240 species of nesting birds (birds that build nests and breed) in Quebec. Some are year-round occupants in this province and others are migratory birds which only spend part of the year here. Below is listed a selection of breeding birds that are either common to Quebec or of particular interest for bird-lovers.

    Extractions: O utdoor P erspective The Fifth-Annual Breeding Bird Survey is in full swing, with birders out combing their designated areas for all types of breeding birds based on three categories: probably breeding (seeing the species in suitable habitat during breeding season), probable breeding (seeing species with a mate), or confirmed breeding (observing a nest with eggs or young birds). Local birder Judy Heintz says, "Each birder’s block is about 10 square miles, and, because so much of that land is private, we rely on landowners to let us on their property to observe the breeding birds." She adds, "Granting permission for volunteers really helps." Right now, killdeer and grouse should be either breeding or on their nests, with the thrushes to follow later. The Breeding Bird Survey is sponsored by Cornell University, the New York State Ornithological Association and New York Audubon. "The goal," says Heintz, "is finding 50 species per block, but blocks with uniform habitat will have fewer species than those with varied habitats." For more information, go to the website or call Judy Heintz at 563-5273.
