birding.com Ornithology Classifying Bird Species: In 1758 a man named Carolus Linnaeus (Carl von Linne) developed a classification system for all animals. He divided the animal Kingdom into groups that each had things in common. Then he divided those groups into smaller groups that had even more things in common. When he finally finished, there were seven levels in his system. At the lowest level is the species. His scientific classification system is still used today. These seven levels are shown below. Here is how scientists classify an American Robin: Level Name Description Kingdom Animalia Animals Phylum Chordata Animals with backbones Class Aves Animals called Birds Order Passeriformes Birds that perch Family Turdidae All Thrushes Genus Turdus Similar Thrushes Species Turdus migratorius American Robin Notice that the species has two names. The names are in Latin. The first name is the Genus and the second is another name that often describes a prominent feature of the bird. The second name may also be a person's name often the name of the ornithologist that first discovered the bird. Scientists sometimes will talk about "races" or "tribes" of one species. Human Beings are a species but there are many races of humans. (Think of a Japanese Sumo wrestler, an pygmy from New Guinea and a Masi warrier from Africa). The same is true for birds. When you go birding you may notice that some birds, such as the Yellow-rumped Warbler, look different in the East than the same species does in the West. Different races of the same species often are separated geographically.

Text Only Ornithology Glasgow University has one of the largest groups of University researchers studying birds in the United Kingdom. The Ornithology Group is involved in both fundamental and applied research on birds. For instance, we are studying how birds adjust the sex ratio of their offspring, while related studies examine the relationships between food supply, egg production, costs of reproduction and ageing. Techniques such as analysis of stable isotope ratios are being used to assign birds to trophic levels. The close relationship between wild birds and human populations presents us with many problems in relation to both conservation and control. We have been involved in many of these issues, such as effects of pollution (e.g. mercury accumulation through the food chain), the conflict between fish-eating birds such as seabirds and commercial fisheries, and the impact of farming practices on species such as geese and scavenging birds. The unit's research is carried out both in the laboratory and in the field at sites in the UK and abroad including Shetland, Orkney, the Azores, Portugal, Africa and the South Atlantic.

UNIVERSITY of ALASKA MUSEUM BIRD COLLECTION With emphasis on the birds of northwesternmost North America, including taxa endemic to Beringia and the circumpolar North, the Bird Collection is the best in existence of avian material from Alaska. Almost all bird species and subspecies known in Alaska are represented and are preserved primarily as skins, skeletons, and tissues. The collection consists of over 18,000 birds. Most recent preparations include skin, skeleton, tissue, and stomach samples for each individual. Tissues are part of the Alaska Frozen Tissue Collection. Specimens are regularly loaned for scientific research. Specimen loan policies and a summary database are available for interested researchers.

Ketterson Indiana University, USA Charles F. Thompson Illinois State University, Normal, USA Book Series: CURRENT ORNITHOLOGY Volume 15 Current Ornithology publishes authoritative, up-to-date, scholarly reviews of topics selected from the full range of current research in avian biology. Topics cover the spectrum from the molecular level of organization to population biology and community ecology. The series seeks especially to review (1) fields in which an abundant recent literature will benefit from synthesis and organization, or (2) newly emerging fields that are gaining recognition as the result of recent discoveries or shifts in perspective, or (3) fields in which students of vertebrates may benefit from comparisons of birds with other classes. All chapters are invited, and authors are chosen for their leadership in the subjects under review. Kluwer Academic/Plenum Publishers Hardbound, ISBN 0-306-46171-4

Next Issue Monday, January 22 2001 Among Lofty Beings By- Alpa Sheth Alpa Sheth did her graduate studies at the University of California, Berkeley in Structural Engineering. After a stint of working in the Bay Area, she now lives in Mumbai where she is a partner in a Design Consultancy firm. In the 3rd week of November we had our first major field outing. A trip to the Corbett Park and Himalayan foothills - Ranikhet and Sattal. I was enthused with the adventure spirit. Having recently read the Jim Corbett Omnibus, a compendium of three of his books, I wanted to see Corbett country, follow his trail as he had tracked the Mohan Man-Eater and finished him off with his 450/400 rifle. We gathered one bright Sunday morning at the New Delhi Station. A handsome bus awaited us. The driver let it be known in no uncertain terms that he was used to ferrying foreigners in his beauty and wasn't quite enjoying the prospect of plying a bunch of crazy desis looking out for birds in far flung areas. But ah, the magic of those doubleeyed thing-a-mes called binoculars! Once someone from the group showed him the hidden world that lay through these, he was a man hooked - He became an avid bird-watcher by the end of the trip though a cynical woman co-traveler claimed he sometimes spied on a different species altogether.

Building a Basic Birdbox Section 1: Building a nest box Section 2: Dimesions for common species Section 3: References One of the easiest ways to study birds is to observe them on the nest. One can go looking for nests in the wild and keep track of what happens from day to day or build nest sites and bring the observation to the comfort of a backyard. For more information on activities centered around nestboxes try the following sites: Columbia Estuary Nestbox Project Cornell Nest Box Network Section 1: Building a nest box Many species of birds depend on cavities for breeding. In the natural environment, woodpeckers, burrowing insects and natural decay provide cavities for nesting. Human activities including deforestation, pest management and the introduction of alien competitors like European Starlings and House Sparrows have affected the supply of nesting cavities. We can build artificial cavities to improve the availability of nesting space. This activity describes how you can build a simple, but effective birdbox, designed to attract bluebirds, chickadees, swallows and wrens. Materials: one 1" x 6" x 5' cedar fencing Cut out the pieces as described in the illustration to the left. There should be three 6" x 8" pieces for the front, back and roof; two 4" x 8" pieces for the sides and one 4" x 4" piece for the floor. Cedar fencing material is ideal for this, because it is resistant to decay and requires no finishing (though it may be finished if you'd like).

Scottish Towns Auchterarder Ornithology The whole district of Auchterarder is rich in bird life for the keen ornithologist. Both Song and Missel Thrushes can be seen in numbers as can winter visitors, Fieldfare and Redwing. The Skylark, common enough forty years ago, may be suffering from changes in agricultural practices disturbing their natural habitat. Hopefully, they may yet again adapt to new conditions. Other common birds in the area are Blackbird, Bullfinch, Chaffinch, Greenfinch, Starling, Tits, Pied Wagtail, Sparrow Hawk, Merlin and the occasional Peregrine. In addition we have all the warblers - Willow and Garden plus the lesser and rarer White Throat Warbler. Down by the Lochy Burn the occasional Grasshopper Warbler can be seen. Swifts, Martins and Swallows are common to the area, as are the Curlew, Oyster-catcher, Lapwing and Heron. Dippers were once to be seen bobbing up and down on the Lochy Burn. The new bypass may have frightened off this naturally shy bird; there have been no sightings recently. Snipe also used to be seen regularly down by the marshy ground near Coal Bore, but again, they have not been seen for some years. It is worth keeping an eye open for their return. Resident species include Long Tailed Tit, Fly Catcher, Goldfinch, Wood-pecker, Barn Owl, Tawny Owl, Sparrow Hawk, Buzzards and Hen Harrier.
