Book excerpt: Written by three expert birders, this book is both a finding guide and an annotated checklist of the birds found in Indiana. In Part I, The Haunts, the Kellers present 66 of their favorite Hoosier birding spots -- parks, reservoirs, and wildlife refuges, as well as more unexpected and unusual sites. Part II, the Checklist, provides the latest records for northern, central, and southern Indiana for 397 species, from permanent residents to the rarest of strays. The new edition has also been rearranged according to the most recent AOU classification scheme, which will be especially convenient for birders now using the national Geographic filed guide. Birds in Part II are cross-indexed to the haunts in Part I. First published in 1979, the book was acclaimed as "extremely functional," "gracefully written," "excellent for touring birders," and "an uncommonly thorough regional guide."

Book Ecology and Management of Blackbirds  Icteridae  in North America

Download or read book Ecology and Management of Blackbirds Icteridae in North America written by George M. Linz and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2017-09-19 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shortlisted for the 2018 TWS Wildlife Publication Awards in the edited book category The various species of new world blackbirds, often intermingled in large foraging flocks and nighttime roosts, collectively number in the hundreds of millions and are a dominant component of the natural and agricultural avifauna in North America today. Because of their abundance, conspicuous flocking behavior, and feeding habits, these species have often been in conflict with human endeavors. The pioneering publications on blackbirds were by F. E. L. Beal in 1900 and A. A. Allen in 1914. These seminal treatises laid the foundation for more than 1,000 descriptive and experimental studies on the life histories of blackbirds as well as their ecology and management in relation to agricultural damage and other conflicts such as caused by large winter roosting congregations. The wealth of information generated in over a century of research is found in disparate outlets that include government reports, conference proceedings, peer-reviewed journals, monographs, and books. For the first time, Ecology and Management of Blackbirds (Icteridae) in North America summarizes and synthesizes this vast body of information on the biology and life histories of blackbirds and their conflicts with humans into a single volume for researchers, wildlife managers, agriculturists, disease biologists, ornithologists, policy makers, and the public. The book reviews the life histories of red-winged blackbirds, yellow-headed blackbirds, common grackles, and brown-headed cowbirds. It provides in-depth coverage of the functional roles of blackbirds in natural and agricultural ecosystems. In doing so, this authoritative reference promotes the development of improved science-based, integrated management strategies to address conflicts when resolutions are needed.

Book The Kentucky Breeding Bird Atlas

  • Publisher : University Press of Kentucky
  • Release : 2014-10-17
  • ISBN : 0813159008
  • Pages : 386 pages

Download or read book The Kentucky Breeding Bird Atlas written by Brainard L. Palmer-Ball, Jr. and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2014-10-17 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ten years in the making, The Kentucky Breeding Bird Atlas presents the results of a seven-year survey of all birds that nest in the Bluegrass State, providing photographs of each species. This work summarizes the distribution and abundance of these bird species, and describes such recent phenomena as the invasions of the Blue Grosbeak and House Finch and the notable decline of other familiar species. Introductory material outlines the methodology used to complete the survey and summarizes its results. Of particular interest, this work helps to document the effect human alteration of the landscape has had on our bird populations. Some of the most common and widespread species in Kentucky today, for example, may have been among the most rare only two hundred years ago. Information for each species includes its current and historical status in the state, habitat preferences, specific details of the construction and placement of nests, and other pertinent aspects of nesting biology. Results of the survey are organized by physiographic region and degree of forestation. For rare or locally distributed species, more specific details concerning individual breeding records are given. Accompanying maps plot each species' distribution and abundance within the state. An additional section briefly summarizes the former status of twelve extinct or extirpated species. The Kentucky Breeding Bird Atlas is sponsored by the Kentucky State Nature Preserves Commission and the Nongame Wildlife Program of the Kentucky Department of Fish and Wildlife Resources in cooperation with the Kentucky Ornithological Society.
