Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Natural nesting habitat for the double-crested cormorant (Phalacrocorax auritus), consisiting of flooded dead timber, has become limited in the midwest portion of the United States. Population trends have followed this decline in habitat and today the species is classified as endangered in Wisconsin. Artificial nesting structures, consisting of a pole with platforms, proved to be a successful substitute for natural nest sites on the George W. Mead Wildlife Afea in central Wisconsin and thus provided an excellent method for rehabilitating deteriorating natural rookeries. Platforms constructed with a lath surface, with additional perching space provided, were the most successful of the four platform designs tested, and received high use by cormorants and great blue herons. Cormorant production on artificial platforms was generally greatef than that in natural nest sites. Guidelines for construction and placement of artificial nesting structures are presented to assist land managers in their restoration efforts.

This book was released on 1982 with total page 742 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Large river systems are valuable national resources that provide numerous benefits to travel, shipping, recreation, and fish and wildlife. However, efforts to expand one of the uses frequently come in direct conflict with one or more of the othersThis guide attempts to bring together all scientific data that are available on techniques that have been or can be used to offset or reduce the impacts of development and maintenance of Upper Mississippi River System or other large river systems. Decision makers are thus provided an objective descriptin of options now at their disposal when they attempt to weigh the merits of defects associated with a particular action.

Download or read book Wisconsin Birdlife written by Samuel D. Robbins and published by Univ of Wisconsin Press. This book was released on 1991 with total page 730 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As initially planned in 1939 by Owen J. Gromme, then curator of birds at the Milwaukee Public Museum, Wisconsin Birdlife would not only describe and document every species of bird known to have visited this state, but would also depict each species with his own original paintings. During the next two decades, Gromme concentrated primarily on the latter, resulting in the separate publication in 1963 of his now classic Birds of Wisconsin. Work on the present volume was assumed in the late 1960s by Samuel D. Robbins, whose labors of more than 20 years give us a veritable encyclopedia of the state's ornithological knowledge. A complement and supplement to field guides, picture books, and recordings, the book is designed to enlarge the reader's understanding and appreciation of statewide history, abundance, and habitat preference of every species reliably recorded in Wisconsin. The volume opens with a summary of the ornithological history of the state and an exposition of its ecological setting. The heart of Wisconsin Birdlife ensues: detailed accounts of nearly 400 species, with information on status (population and distribution), habitat, migration dates, breeding data, and wintering presence, followed by extensive discussion and commentary. Dr. James Hall Zimmerman, Senior Lecturer in Landscape Architecture at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, provides a special discussion of bird habitats for the book. In addition, Wisconsin Birdlife features a comprehensive status and seasonal distribution chart, a detailed habitat preference chart, and an exhaustive bibliography. The ultimate resource, Wisconsin Birdlife belongs within easy reach of everyone from armchair appreciators and casual birdwatchers to ardent birders and professional ornithologists.
