Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This milestone book is the first comprehensive survey of the geographical distribution of West Virginia's many breeding birds. More than three hundred volunteer birders systematically combed the Mountain State's forests, wetlands, mountains, and farmlands over a six-year period to collect the data that forms its basis. Detailed range maps are provided for 171 species of birds and two hybrids. Each map is accompanied by a summary of the bird's breeding range, population trends from the USFWS Breeding Bird Survey, and a discussion of factors affecting the Atlas results. Acetate map overlays allow the reader to compare bird distribution with geographical and ecological features of the state.
Book Synopsis The Second Atlas of Breeding Birds in West Virginia by : Richard S. Bailey
Download or read book The Second Atlas of Breeding Birds in West Virginia written by Richard S. Bailey and published by Penn State University Press. This book was released on 2021-06-08 with total page 696 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Second Atlas of Breeding Birds in West Virginia is the most comprehensive description of bird life in the Mountain State ever published. Building on the first Atlas, published in 1994, this book documents the occurrence of 170 species of breeding birds, including three new species and one whose last breeding record was in 1888. Compiled from the efforts of almost two hundred volunteers, who worked from 2009 to 2014 to amass more than one hundred thousand records and conduct point-count surveys, the Atlas presents detailed information about each species and two hybrids. Species accounts are accompanied by maps that show breeding evidence, as well as estimates of occurrence, change in occurrence, and population density. The volume covers state geography, climate, and changing habitats. It includes both a discussion of conservation concerns important to the state's breeding birds and a history of state ornithology and changes in West Virginia's avifauna drawn from observations and research from the nineteenth through the twenty-first century. Featuring up-to-date information about 170 bird species and hundreds of beautiful color photographs--nearly all of which are identified by county locations--The Second Atlas of Breeding Birds in West Virginia is an indispensable resource for researchers, conservationists, and birders.
Book Synopsis The Iowa Breeding Bird Atlas by : Laura Spess Jackson
Download or read book The Iowa Breeding Bird Atlas written by Laura Spess Jackson and published by University of Iowa Press. This book was released on 1996 with total page 512 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Iowa Breeding Bird Atlas"—the first comprehensive statewide survey of Iowa's breeding birds—provides a detailed record of the composition and distribution of the avifauna of the Hawkeye State. The atlas documents the presence of 199 species, 158 of which were confirmed breeding. This landmark volume will alert Iowans to the limited distribution of numerous species and serve as a guide to the management practices—such as forest and wetland management, set-aside programs, reduction in farm chemical use, and crop diversity—which could help insure that many future changes are positive ones. "The Iowa Breeding Bird Atlas" provides a welcome and much-needed baseline for future comparisons of changes in Iowa's birdlife and, by extension, the lives of all animals in the state.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Birds of Prey of the West and its companion volume, Birds of Prey of the East, are the most comprehensive and authoritative field guides to North American birds of prey ever published. Written and lavishly illustrated with stunning, lifelike paintings by leading field-guide illustrator, photographer, and author Brian Wheeler, the guides depict an enormous range of variations of age, sex, color, and plumage, and feature a significant amount of plumage data that has never been published before. The painted figures illustrate plumage and species comparisons in a classic field-guide layout. Each species is shown in the same posture and from the same viewpoint, which further assists comparisons. Facing-page text includes quick-reference identification points and brief natural history accounts that incorporate the latest information. The range maps are exceptionally accurate and much larger than those in other guides. They plot the most up-to-date distribution information for each species and include the location of cities for more accurate reference. Finally, the guides feature color habitat photographs next to the maps. The result sets a new standard for guides to North America's birds of prey.

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.

Book Synopsis Missouri Breeding Bird Atlas by : Brad Jacobs
Download or read book Missouri Breeding Bird Atlas written by Brad Jacobs and published by . This book was released on 1997 with total page 452 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Missouri Breeding Bird Atlas Project, conducted from 1986 through 1992, sought to document the status and distribution of the bird species that breed in Missouri. The primary goal was to develop a distributional map for each species that depicts as accurately as possible its true breeding range in the state. The resultant information was intended to: 1) provide baseline data against which future changes in the status and distribution of Missouri's breeding birds could be measured, 2) determine the location of rare species, 3) identify significant habitats and 4) develop a factual database to assist environmental planners in making wise decisions about resource use in Missouri. During the process of collecting the distributional and status information, data were also obtained on species' abundance, breeding phenology and Brown-headed Cowbird brood parasitism. --from Introduction (p. 1).
