Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of the Birds of Colorado West of the lo5th meridian, and rising with extra ordinary abruptness from the plains to the east, the Rocky Mountains occupy roughly the middle third of the State. In a very general way the system forms two parallel ranges running north and south, joined by subsidiary east and west connections; between these are the great mountain parks, open Wide valleys rather bare of trees, and situated at elevations of to feet. The chief of these are North and South Parks, drained by the North and South Platte rivers, which meet out in the plains of Nebraska and join the Missouri near Omaha Middle Park, drained by the Grand River, the principal af uent of the Colorado River of the west, draining into the Gulf of California; and the San Luis Valley, draining into the Rio Grande on the south.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Birds of Colorado The following paper is designed to set forth our present knowledge of the distribution and migration of Colorado birds. There is also included a bibliography of the subject and an historical review of the progress of ornithological investigation in this State. The total number of species and varieties of birds known to occur in Colorado is 360, of which 328 are known to breed. This is a larger number of species than has been taken in any state east of the Mississippi and is exceeded by only one state of the Union, that is by Nebraska with nearly four hundred species. The reason for this great variety of bird life is found in the geographical position of the State and the physical characteristics of its surface. From the Atlantic Ocean to western Iowa but slight changes occur in the avi-fauna. But with the decreased rainfall and the increase in altitude from there westward, a great number of new forms appear. The greatest change is at the eastern foothills of the Rocky Mountains, which is the natural dividing line between the eastern and middle provinces of the United States. But while many of the western forms extend as stragglers eastward into Kansas and Nebraska and especially into the Black Hills of South Dakota and northwestern Nebraska, a large number of eastern forms do not pass west of the semi-arid region of twenty inches of annual rainfall and are not found in Colorado. It is due to this fact that Nebraska exceeds Colorado in the number of species taken in the State. All of the eastern species reach Nebraska and nearly all the western forms extend into northwestern Nebraska. This is strikingly shown in the case of the Warblers. Nebraska has more than twenty Warblers that do not occur in Colorado, while Colorado has less than five that are not found in Nebraska. The avi-fauna of Colorado is reinforced by species that belong more properly to the regions on all sides of it.

Download or read book Birds of the Colorado Valley written by Elliott Coues and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-22 with total page 832 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Birds of the Colorado Valley: A Repository of Scientific and Popular Information Concerning North American Ornithology Since the appearance of the Birds of the Northwest it has been a matter of frequently expressed regret that the accounts of the birds treated in that volume did not include such descrip tions of the species as should enable those using the work to identify specimens they might have in hand. It has been deemed advisable to supply this want in the present treatise, especially as a considerable proportion of the characteristic birds of the Colorado Valley are not so well known as are most of those inhabiting the region of the Missouri. The descrip tions are original, in nearly every case having been drawn up by the author directly from the specimens themselves, with great regard to precision of concise statement. All the species ascertained to occur in the Valley of the Colorado, being those which form the special subject of the work, are thus treated, the other North American birds of which the volume takes account being introduced only with their synonymy and a brief state ment of the habitat of each. Respecting the biographies or life-histories of the birds, which constitute the main text of the present volume, the author's view, that this portion of the subject should be so far divested of technicality as to meet the tastes and wants of the public rather than the scientific requirements of the schoolmen in ornithology, will doubtless meet with general and emphatic approval. It is possible to make natural history entertaining and attractive as well as instructive, with no loss in scientific precision, but with great gain in stimulating, strengthening and confirming the wholesome influence which the study of the natural sciences may exert upon the higher grades of mental culture; nor is it a matter of little moment to so shape the knowledge which results from the naturalist's labors that its increase may be susceptible of the widest possible difiusion.

Download or read book Beyond the Aspen Grove written by Ann Zwinger and published by Big Earth Publishing. This book was released on 2002 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Colorado Rockies are Ann Zwinger's subject in prose and drawing. There, 8,300 feet above sea level, summer is short and winter long and often harsh; it is a place where much of life exists on the margin. In good years the grasses are lush; in bad years, even the mice starve. But it is a land the Zwingers have lovingly explored and recorded, careful not to disrupt the balance of the land, the relationship of plant to animal and of each to its environment.These forty acres, called Constant Friendship after the Maryland land her ancestor settled in the early 1730s, are a place of all seasons, for even in winter there is a promise of spring, and in spring the foretaste of summer. The white of snow becomes the white of summer clouds, the resonant green of spruce becomes the green head of drake mallard ... here part of each season is contained in every other.In beautiful and simple language and with 80 illustrations, Beyond the Aspen Grove tells of meadow, lake, marsh and forest, of algae and dragonflies, of deer and jays that live in the thin clear air of the mountain world.
