Every species account (well, most every account) includes information on habitat and talk briefly about range and distribution (there are no range maps in this guide); it is usually noted if the species breeds in Ontario, and often noted if it is migratory or residential year-round. The Snowy Owl account focuses on irruptions.

The Northwestern Hawaiian Islands are home to some of the largest assemblages of breeding seabirds in the United States. Because Midway is home to endangered species ( e.g. , Laysan Duck, Hawaiian Monk Seal), FWS must also comply with the Endangered Species Act (ESA). This will focus on the requirements of NEPA.

But other species have not been recorded in the ABA Area, including, of course, all 16 Puerto Rican endemics. Some of these are unique examples of U.S. avian diversity: the Puerto Rican Parrot is the only remaining native parrot species and the sole representative of the Tody family ( Todidae) is the Puerto Rican Tody.

Following passage of the United States Endangered Species Preservation Act of 1966, the California Condor ( Gymnogyps californianus ) was among the first 75 species listed for protection, the so-called “Class of 1967”. A portion of all draft and bottle sales of Condor Kolsch will be donated to these programs.

These lands support countless birds, either year-round, as migratory stopovers, or as breeding grounds. For example, the federal government owns less than 1% in Connecticut but nearly 80% in Nevada. The birds that rely on federal lands therefore include virtually every species that spends meaningful time in the United States.

By way of an example take the Western Gulls that I studied on the Farallon Islands in California. But you can take solace in the results at the end of the breeding year, when loafing around the intertidal are a shiny new cohort of finely plumage grey youngsters, all ready to carry on Western Gull line into the future.

James Wakelin is prime example of modern ornithologist and conservator. He worked for Ezemvelo (the provincial parks authority) and was an avid bird bander who also worked on DNA analyses, radio tracking, monitoring endangered species nests etc. Hugh was recently awarded an honorary doctorate for his contribution to ornithology.

Another 170 are in captivity, many of them breeding stock for reintroduction efforts. What could motivate gunmen (I cannot call them hunters) in two states to deliberately kill North America’s tallest and most critically endangered bird? It may be as sick as deliberately targeting an endangered species for death.

I selected this paper because it is unusually accessible (for example, it does not have formal modeling, genetic analysis, or daunting equations) and tells a fascinating story about shipping tiny birds hundreds of miles between two isolated islands in the remote Pacific Ocean. It is helpful to have a sample paper. It is all business.

This can be a very good thing, for example bring my late ass up to date on the EU’s idiotic attitude to diclofenac. One of the most alarming stories I read this week was about the call to rationalise the allocation of conservation dollars in Australia , shifting the focus from protecting endangered species to protecting habitats.

Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) is considering changing the status of the endangered Black-capped Vireo : it has proposed delisting it entirely. and it breeds in the scrublands of Texas, Oklahoma, and northern Mexico. For example, there are four major populations on public lands—including one on Fort Hood , the largest U.S.
