Book The Atlas of Wintering Birds in Britain and Ireland

Download or read book The Atlas of Wintering Birds in Britain and Ireland written by Peter Lack and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2010-11-30 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This companion volume to The Atlas of Breeding Birds of Britain and Ireland is derived from surveys of birds present in Britain and Ireland during the three winters, 1981/82, 1982/83 and 1983/84. The surveys were organised by the British Trust for Ornithology and the Irish Wildbird Conservancy, as were the earlier breeding birds surveys. The Winter Atlas maps 200 species, 192 of which have full-page two-colour maps faced by a page of text. The texts (written by over 100 specialists) comment on the survey results, the species generally and the distribution and abundance as mapped. In addition there are introductory chapters on the maps, the weather in the three winters, bird patterns and movements; and appendices describing the planning, organisation, field methods, and processing of the survey data from record cards to computer output and maps. A team of 23 artists, led by Robert Gillmor, has provided the line drawings which head the species accounts.

Book Management of Forests for Capercaillie in Scotland

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The capercaillie is the biggest grouse in the world. It lives in Old World boreal and temperate forests and its range coincides largely with that of its main winter food, the Scots pine. This publication describes the biology and status of capercaillie in Scotland, discusses possible reasons for the decline in their numbers, and gives recommendations for managing forests for capercaillie. Most plantations which support good populations are rich in blackberry and a major recommendation is that this should be encouraged (guidelines are given).

  • Author : Ilse Storch
  • Publisher : World Conservation Union
  • Release : 2000
  • ISBN : 9782831705194
  • Pages : 0 pages

Download or read book Grouse written by Ilse Storch and published by World Conservation Union. This book was released on 2000 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Grouse have long attracted and fascinated people. Their display behavior, and their traditional communal mating grounds or "leks", have inspired poetry and folklore as well as scientific theories on sexual selection and mating systems. In many parts of their range, hunting plays a major role in the culture, economy, and subsistence of local communities. Although from a global perspective their status is not critical, grouse are far from being safe, and on a local scale, many local populations of grouse are declining and threatened with extinction. This plan provides a guide to the distribution, status, and threats to all grouse species; its major objective is to identify conservation priorities from a global perspective.
