They gradually spread to the Atlantic Ocean by way of the southern coast of North America (before it was joined to South America) and gained the ability to pursue prey by diving in cool waters (see Pereira and Baker 2008 ). Today, as highly specialized pursuit divers, they are restricted to cool northern waters for a straightforward reason.

This bird “040″ had been banded at about 5 weeks old in 2005 and given a tag as an adult in 2008 within Centennial Park. You may even see a tagged ibis, like we did on our trip to Sydney last year. Duncan saw Australian White Ibis ”001″ on his trip , so keep an eye out!
The revenue-expenses divergence resulted in several years of negative net income, from 2008 to 2010. The 2011 , 2012 , and 2013 Financial Statements continued to note the increasing deficiencies and continued to state that the ABA had essentially the same plan of action as listed in the 2010 statement. to $1.6M).

India, February 2013. The Guardian recently published the latest population analysis by the IUCN’s Dhole Working Group that has revealed that the area of occupancy of this species has significantly declined – close to 50% since the previous assessment in 2008! It is February and evenings are cold. Against snakes,” he said.

The relationship between duck breeding populations and duck stamp sales changed between 1955–1994 (r 1?4 Check out their site.
This next map is data from 2007 through 2008. And the last one shows the stats from 2013 to the present. In North America and the Caribbean, they are found mostly in suburban, urban, and agricultural areas where grain, roost, and nest sites are available.
2013 – 24 March. 2008 – 21 March. Below are my first dates for the last ten years if you are really interested in such things… 2016 – 18 March. 2015 – 28 March. 2014 – 29 March. 2012 – 15 March. 2011 – 19 March. 2010 – 31 March. 2009 – 15 March. 2007 – 26 March.
I was surprised, however, that there is no mention of one of the dark spots in bird feeding history, the highly publicized application of toxic insecticides to Scott’s Miracle-Gro bird seed from 2005 to 2008 and the accompanying falsification of documents to hide it. Scott’s was fined $12.5

In 2008, one such grove was buried under the 200 metres tall pylon of the new bridge, which sparkled the initiative by the Belgrade Land Development Public Agency, League for Ornithological Action of Serbia (a local NGO) and the Institute for Nature Conservation of Serbia to protect the remaining roosting sites of this species.
Although Henslow’s had been reliably found in nearby Sharon Springs for many years, the last documented sighting was in 2008, and the sighting startled longtime birders, waking them up to the fact that breeding sites in the state were rapidly being lost.

These changes are, of course, also reflected in the second edition of The Sibley Guide to Birds (though only up to the 54th supplement, 2013), but to dedicated users of the regional editions, there is going to be a learning curve in knowing where to open the book up to without using the index. Font: It is amazing what you can do with a font.
The two-and-a-quarter page Bibliography is excellent, an up-to-date (as of 2011, which is pretty good for a book published in late 2013) mix of identification guides and articles and web sites, including titles on European seabird identification. They were part of the team that broke the ABA Big Day record in 2008 with 260 species.
Author Cameron Cox has written about terns before, in the Peterson Reference Guide to Seawatching: Eastern Waterbirds in Flight , co-authored with Ken Behrens (HMH, 2013). A table of contents listing species or a pictorial key on the inside front cover would make life much easier for the eager birder in search of identification.
Probably the closest guide in comprehensiveness to Britain’s Birds is the Collins Bird Guide, 2nd edition by Lars Svensson (HarperCollins, 2008), published in the U.S. I wish they had provided more background on how this guide came about and what each of their contributions was. as Birds of Europe, 2nd edition (PUP, 2011).
According to the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) report on animals taken in fiscal year 2013 , “Wildlife Services” intentionally killed 657,134 Red-winged Blackbirds and dispersed1,777,960. A summary of the 2013 California statewide reportstates: The 2014 Statewide Survey was held from April 18-20, 2014.
Ken also had a very dry sense of humour … and we definitively enjoyed his wry take on life… Despite being only in his twenties [in 2008], Ken seemed to have been birding for at least forty years, so good were his birding skills.”. The endemics of the Albertine Rift Mountains are marked in bold, 10 mammals and 26 birds.
The pair of Pied Oystercatchers have been successful in raising a chick on two occasions that we are aware of in recent years and that was in 2008 and 2011. In fact they were the only pair to successfully raise a chick in the 2008 season and only one other chick survived in 2011.
Deming’s Teachings by Peter Scholtes (this shows Peter’s full presentation at our 2008 conference in Madison, Wisconsin): 1,900 views (4 years – 6,300). Deming 101 – Knowledge about Variation by Ian Bradbury at the 2013 Deming Conference: 800 views (3 years – 3,500).
First issued in a limited printing in 1972, then re-issued by Ammo Press in 2008 after Harper’s death in June 2007, it contains images that are iconic and familiar, striking and unique.

Maharashtra, February 2013. Earlier, a large number of villagers were being killed by tigers: 11 in 2006, 13 in 2007 and more than 26 during 2008. Trying not to inhale so much of the dust cloud that envelops us, I am sporting a bandana tied bank-robber style.
I feel certain that, given Tennessee’s 18-year track record of celebrating cranes in a tremendously successful festival, the opposition will only be stronger in 2013. From July 1 2008-June 30 2009 Ducks Unlimited raised 200.4 TWRC’s response to the outcry was a two-year stay on the proposed season.
Of course I then had to continue and so once again in 2013 I joined others in listing for the year and have just completed the third year in 2014. Once again for my Australian birds I will use the “Christidis and Boles 2008 key to species names” and list them in the order that they come on that list.
This all started way back in 2012 and several of us continued on in 2013 , 2014 and 2015. I have used “Christidis and Boles 2008 key to species names” until now, but due to the fact that it is not going to be updated into the future I will start to use the latest Birdlife Australia Rarites Committee list using IOC names.
This all started way back in 2012 and several of us continued on in 2013 , 2014 , 2015 , 2016. Well, another New Year crept up on us once again and once again I will commit to listing on the website! Just looking at everyone’s lists over the years you can see how varied our birding lives can be.

Once again for my Australian birds I will use the “Christidis and Boles 2008 key to species names” and list them in the order that they come on that list. This was last updated January 4th 2013. If there is a post that I have done that covers any of the species I will attach a link to it. Grey teal- Anas gracilis- Broome-January 1st.
