I was doing my thesis research at the time, and it even affected what I was doing, as the wild world was being reconceptualized in terms of tannins and alkaloids, seed edators and dispersers, and so on. The next stage in this research is obvious. Behavioural Processes, Volume 56, Issue 2, 1 November 2001, Pages 113–120.
The plight of these birds inspired her, along with a handful of other concerned individuals, to do everything they could to save them, and by April of 1971 International Bird Rescue Research Center (now known as International Bird Rescue) was incorporated as a non-profit organization.
Using the Birds of Peru field guide to identify a species of antshrike This course has three admirable objectives: To train the next generation of Neotropical bird researchers, both international and Peruvian, in efficient and standardised mist-netting, bird ringing/banding, and bird ageing skills.
Flight Paths traces the history of migratory research in nine chapters, starting with the earliest attempts to track birds, bird banding/ringing (which she traces back to Audubon), and ending with ‘community science’ projects such as Breeding Bird Surveys and eBird. THIS IMAGE NOT IN THE BOOK. Schulman, 2023.
Since 2001, chimpanzees have been housed at APF, where they cannot be used for research. However, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) plans to move the chimpanzees—many of them at least 30 years old—to the Southwest National Primate Research Facility in San Antonio, Texas, where they can be used in painful, invasive experiments.".
Now, one million hamsters are kept as pets, an increase of 41 percent since 2001. Sadly, though, some 200,000 hamsters were used for research in the United States in 2000, third behind rats and mice. Prior to the 1970s, virtually all were descended from one breeding pair. This includes the two sitting on the shelf in our house!)
Bill Richardson on Thursday the chimps will not be transferred to a San Antonio, Texas, facility until the National Academy of Sciences reviews policies on using chimpanzees in biomedical research. The NIH proposed sending them to Texas to be used in research aimed at finding a hepatitis C vaccine.
Early research suggested that “Fragmented distributions and population bottlenecks due to human activities appear to have increased genetic differentiation among populations” (Leberg 1991). et al 2001. Which would be weird. This supports an argument for the origins of turkey husbandry or at least captive rearing in the Preclassic.
Starting in the mid-1990s, there was a “where to watch birds in…” series of five site guides written by Nigel Wheatley and covering South America (1994), Africa (1995), Asia (1996), Europe & Russia (2000) and Central America & the Caribbean (2001). I was always curious, but never had a chance to study any of them.
Way back when I started what turned out to be my thesis research (on humans), it became important for me to learn about bird migration. I was involved in the study of human movement and navigation on land, and there was a lot of research coming out about bird navigation. That’s because the two are related.
A little bit of research when I got home unraveled the ways of publishers here and in Great Britain. The accounts aim for specificity and authority; dates and locations of rarity sightings are given, and research articles on nesting and behavior are cited. How could I, the librarian, end up with an outdated field guide?
We now know a lot more, and the following information is largely based on the excellent work of our local bird data compiler Armin Konrad , who was amongst the first to notice the die-off in the first place and was also instrumental in coordinating the surveys and research that finally led to the identification of the culprit!
This is a delightful book, large (8-1/2 by 11 inches), filled with Sibley’s distinctive artwork and an organized potpourri of research-based stories about the science behind bird’s lives. copyright @2020 by David A llen Sibley. As Sibley tells us in the Preface, he originally intended to write a children’s book.
Like Peterson’s Hawks of North America, 2nd edition (Houghton Mifflin, 2001), which Clark co-authored with Brain K. The Species Accounts are the research-at-home section. So, Double-toothed Kite calls “are high and thin and not very raptor-like…more like those of tyrant flycatchers” (p.129), Maybe with a book cover.)
The idea of Lost Animals was conceived after the publication of Extinct Birds (2001), a 400-page, four-pound book on 75 extinct species. And so, Fuller embarked on a new initiative—locating and researching photographs of lost birds and, expanding his scope, of mammals. more than there really was to see!” (p.
(SOPI) is the leading ornithological organization and it performs research, education, and outreach. Much of the research regarding Caribbean ecology and ornithology has been conducted in Puerto Rico. Although most conservation research focuses on northern breeding grounds, many ABA Area birds spend most of the year elsewhere.
She does, and her narrative serves as a role model for how to write about birds simply and knowledgeably; informing birds’ family stories with scientific facts and research findings. Both authors marvel at the diversity of birding reproductive and parenting behavior.
Author: BY DAVE STEIN, CEO AND FOUNDER, ES RESEARCH GROUP, INC. Google’s Timeline marks its first occurrence as a syndrome in March 2001: “The annual report has long been disdained as a bright shiny object unworthy of attention from the serious investor. read more'
There is a major difference: the Raptors guides are photographic and the Birds of Prey guides are illustrated with Wheeler’s paintings, over 1,000 images in each guide, organized with logical precision for reference, research, and comparison, with a self-evident side benefit–the portrayal of the beauty of raptors. Clark and Brian K.
David Beadle has a number of bird books to his credit; he is co-author with James Rising of Sparrows of the United States and Canada: The Photographic Guide (2001), and has contributed both illustrations and photographs to many other guides, including the forthcoming Antpittas and Gnateaters by Harold Greeney.
The speaker turned out to be Tim Laman, and the topic was the incredible research he and Ed Scholes had spent years doing on birds of paradise in New Guinea. The material is meticulously documented with citations of monographs by Clifford and Dawn Frith and Bruce Beehler plus additional research papers and materials.
“A reading of recent research shows that Australian birds are more likely than most to eat sweet foods, live in complex societies, lead long lives, attack other birds, and be intelligent and loud.” Between 1991 and 2001, 143 bird strikes involving Masked Lapwings were reported to the ATSB.
So, I was very excited when I heard that Rick Wright was writing a book about sparrows, the first treatment of North American sparrows since 2001, possibly the first book about sparrows of North America, depending on your definition of that geographic area. He has an academic background in German and medieval studies, including a Ph.D.
Since Craig Robson’s “Birds of Thailand” (2002) is taxonomically outdated, the choice was Robson’s “Birds of South-East Asia” (the updated second, 2014 edition of the 2001 classic). Now, which field guide to pack?

This path eventually led him to Texas State Optical, where he became President in 2001. Under his leadership, the organization transitioned from a traditional franchise to a member-owned cooperative, focusing on younger optometrists and leveraging technology such as AI to enhance patient care.
Prior to this Lynx edition – the first ever bird guide devoted specifically to Cambodia, the choice was Robson’s “Birds of South-East Asia” (the updated second, 2014 edition of the 2001 classic). In 1400 illustrations and c. 600 distribution maps, the “Birds of Cambodia” covers 629 species recorded in the country to date.
