Book excerpt: Jack Veeder is dying. Soon. And that impending event brings his son Jimmy back to the Imperial Valley of southern California just north of the Calexico/Mexicali border. Jimmy hopes he can spend what time his father has left laughing and reminiscing. But Jack's got one dying request. He needs Jimmy to find a Mexican prostitute named Yolanda. Enlisting the help of his boyhood friend Bobby Maves, the pair stumbles through the violent, the exploited, and the corrupted of Mexicali. It doesn't take long before they're in over their heads. And as Jimmy tries to survive the dangers of the Mexicali underworld, he unwittingly uncovers truths about his father he never imagined, forcing Jimmy to come to terms with the man he thought he knew, and to decide just what sort of man he wants to become. " Johnny Shaw] is excellent at creating a sense of place with a few deft strokes... he moves effortlessly between dark comedy and moments that pack a real emotional punch, and he's got a knack for off-kilter characters who are completely at home in their own personal corners of oddballdom." - Tana French, author of In the Woods, Faithful Place

Download or read book Birdlife of the Gulf of Mexico written by Joanna Burger and published by Texas A&M University Press. This book was released on 2018-01-02 with total page 778 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Gulf of Mexico is one of the most important ecological regions in the world for birds. The mosaic of diverse habitats in the region provides numerous niches for birds. There are productive salt marshes, barrier islands, and sandy beaches for foraging and nesting; a direct pathway between North and Central and South America for migrating; and warm, tropical waters for wintering. Many species are residents all year around, some migrate through, and still others spend the winter along the shores. The Gulf Coast is home to a significant portion of the world’s population of Reddish Egret and Snowy Plover and a significant portion of the US breeding populations of certain birds, including the Sandwich Tern, Black Skimmer, and Laughing Gull. In total, there are more than 400 bird species that rely on the Gulf at some time during the year. Drawing on decades of fieldwork and data research, renowned ornithologist and behavioral ecologist Joanna Burger provides detailed descriptions of birdlife in the Gulf of Mexico. Burger records trends in bird population, behavior, and major threats and stressors affecting birds in the region, including the effects of the Deepwater Horizon oil spill in 2010. While some of this data exists in journal articles, research papers, and government reports, this is the first volume to weave together a comprehensive overview of the birds and related natural resources found in the Gulf of Mexico. Illustrated with over 900 color photographs, charts, and maps, this landmark reference volume will be immensely important for researchers, conservationists, land managers, birders, and wildlife lovers.

Download or read book Annual Survival Recovery and Peak Nesting Season of Mourning Doves in Texas written by Joseph Michael Wilson and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dove hunting is one of the most economically important hunting activities in Texas, and accounts for more mourning dove harvests than any other state. The objective of this study was to analyze 13 years (2003–2015) of banded mourning doves (Zenaida macroura) data for annual survival and recovery of mourning doves in Texas. I used dead-recovery modeling in Program MARK, ran through Program R, to investigate covariate influence on annual survival and recovery probabilities. I used covariates that may influence the annual survival and recovery of mourning doves including hunting zone, dove density, band type, age, and time. My model selection process utilized Akaike's Information Criterion (AIC) to select the most parsimonious model for annual survival and recovery of mourning doves. The data set consisted of 22,901 individuals and 787 direct and indirect recoveries. The recovery rate of Texas mourning doves was higher in hatch year (HY) dove than in after-hatch year (AHY) dove. The estimates for the age model gave a recovery probability of 0.052 (95% CI = 0.044-0.059) or 5.2% for HY dove and a recovery probability of 0.038 (95% CI = 0.035-0.042) or 3.8% for AHY mourning dove. Variability between years was the best estimator of survival for Texas mourning doves. The average estimated survival probability for all 13 years was 0.518 (95% CI = 0.422-0.613) or 51.8%. Hunting Texas mourning doves during their late nesting season results in the loss of eggs and nestlings, affecting the annual production. The U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) reported that late nesting season hunting produces negligible losses to the population and does not significantly affect the annual production of mourning dove. My objective was to utilize molt scores, obtained from Texas mourning dove banding records, to back date to hatch day and identify the peak nesting season. The mean nesting day was 31 May for Texas mourning dove. The inter-quartile range (50%) of hatchings occurred within a twenty-five-day period between 19 May and 12 June. Less than 1% of hatchings occurred between 24 July and August 11, more than three weeks before the beginning of dove hunting season for Texas.
Download or read book The Old Pro Turkey Hunter written by Gene Nunnery and published by Univ. Press of Mississippi. This book was released on 2018-10-18 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During his life, Gene Nunnery was recognized as a master turkey hunter and an artisan who crafted unique, almost irresistible turkey calls. In The Old Pro Turkey Hunter, the vaunted sportsman shares over fifty years of personal experience in Mississippi and surrounding states, along with the decades-old wisdom of the huntsmen who taught him. Throughout the book, his stories make clear that turkey hunting is more than just killing the bird—it is about matching wits with a wild and savvy adversary. As Nunnery explains, “To me that’s what it’s all about: finding a wise old gobbler who will test your skill as a turkey hunter.” Through his stories, Nunnery reveals that the true reward for successful turkey hunting lies in winning the contest, not necessarily exterminating the foe. Real sportsmen know that every now and then the turkey should and will elude the hunter. As Nunnery looks back on his extensive career, he analyzes vast differences in practice, old and new. The shift, he decides, came during his last twenty years on the hunt, and that difference has only increased in the decades since this book was originally published. Michael O. Giles, Bass Pro staff team member, master turkey hunter, and award-winning outdoors writer and author of Passion of the Wild, writes a new foreword that brings the practice of turkey hunting into the present day. Filled with a tested mixture of common sense and specific examples of how master turkey hunters honor their harvest and heritage, The Old Pro Turkey Hunter is the perfect companion for the novice or the adept.
