No doubt I should apologize for undertaking work of this nature. A simple statement of the case will, I trust, make it plain to all why I have taken up this study. For a number of years we have had constant inquiries at the University for some literature on the birds of the state. As time went on these became more numerous but there was no one to take up the subject. Being the curator of the museum I volunteered my services five years ago, and the board have been very generous in granting me assistance. While I make no pretense at being an ornithologist, I have always been deeply interested in the birds, and at one time when a young man did spend considerable time in studying them. Upon taking up the work there were three avenues open from which I could secure data: 1, the published reports pertaining to the birds of the state. 2, observations of ornithologists or collectors in the state that had not been published. 3, to make a collection of skins, and secure as much data as possible first hand. While there was considerable material available under the first and second divisions, yet there was a wide field that had not been worked, and a great deal of valuable information to be secured. A collection was immediately started and with the valuable assistance of Chas. W. Gilmore, who was a student at that time, but at the present is in the department of palaeontology of the Carnegie Museum, rapid progress was made. The collection at this time numbers a little less than 600 skins; but in many instances there is but a single skin representing a species.

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 South Dakota Classic Reprint written by William H. Over and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-04 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Birds of South Dakota There is perhaps no State ia the Union where bird study is more perplexing than in South Dakota. From east to west the State embraces birds of woods, prairie and mountains. The range of many birds is constantly moving westward, and this causes variation in the migrating routes of many species. The Black Hills, lying only a little apart from the Rocky Mountains, are apt to be visited occasionally by western species. From south to north, likewise, both trees and latitude affect the bird problem. The Missouri River with its wooded banks and ravines, traversing the middle of the State, provides conditions which attract some species farther north than they would otherwise come. But for this fact we probably would not have the beautiful Western Blue Grosbeak within our borders. Birds from farther east and south also, such as Cardinals and Wood Thrushes, follow the growing trees into South Dakota. Many birds are found in the southern part of the State which are never seen in the northern part; and some birds which form erly nested in South Dakota no longer do so. So numerous, therefore, are the changes going on in bird life within the State that observations which were made a few years ago may not be accurate today and observations made to day may not be accurate tomorrow.

Download or read book Miss Wyoming written by Douglas Coupland and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2001-04-25 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the bestselling author of Generation X and Microserfs, comes the absurd and tender story of a hard-living movie producer and a former child beauty pageant contender who only find each other by losing themselves. Waking up in an L.A. hospital, John Johnson is amazed that it was the flu and not an overdose of five different drugs mixed with cognac that nearly killed him. As a producer of high-adrenaline action flicks, he's led a decadent and dangerous life, purchasing his way through every conceivable variant of sex. But each variation seems to take him one notch away from a capacity for love, and while movie-making was once a way for him to create worlds of sensation, it now bores him. After his near-death experience, John decides to walk away from his life. Susan Colgate is an unbankable former tv star and child beauty pageant contender. Forced to marry a heavy metal singer in need of a Green Card after her parents squander her sitcom earnings, she becomes the alpha road rat. But when the band's popularity dwindles, the marriage dissolves. Flying back to Los Angeles in Economy, Susan's plane crashes and only she survives. As she walks away from the disaster virtually unscathed, Susan, too, decides to disappear. John and Susan are two souls searching for love across the bizarre, celebrity-obsessed landscape of LA, and are driven, almost fatefully, toward each other. Hilarious, fast-paced and ultimately heart-wrenching, Miss Wyoming is about people who, after throwing off their self-made identities, begin the fearful search for a love that exposes all vulnerabilities.
