The threat of extinction of such iconic Florida bird prompted State and Federal agencies to find solutions to stop and reverse the declining trend. It would take years to restore such large scale landscape changes, perhaps not soon enough to reverse the kite’s population downward trend. Kites now nest there and are fairly common.
Written by birders, it underlies a wealth of facts, trends, and events with a consciousness that the more knowledgeable we are about good bird feeding practices, based on history and experience, the more successful bird feeding will be at bringing people to birds and the more people will advocate for effective conservation policies and laws.
” Species descriptions include physical features; distribution; population and population trends; locations of main populations; breeding; food; threats; impact of climate change; migration where applicable; Red List status (vulnerable, near threatened, etc.). Davis and Martin Renner in 2003, appropriately titled Penguin s (Yale Univ.
Egg-laying starts in late March to early April and they remain in the vicinity till early June. Population estimates from “Birds of Serbia: Breeding Population Estimates and Trends”, BirdLife Serbia, 2015. And where to look for the Ural Owl in Serbia? Cover photo by Snezana & Slobodan Panjkovic.
Some of these trends may, however, be due to a bias in coverage by ornithologists of safer areas such as national parks and protected swamps that afford easier accessibility and comforts.” Studies on improving ostrich egg hatchability.

It is part of a publishing trend to make scientific information easily available, effortless to read and process, primarily through the use of stunning visual material to engage our eyes and spike our interest.
Kelly wondered whether the term "vegan" is " worth fighting for " given the latest trend of seemingly oxymoronish (waiting for that one to hit Webster's) terminology from the mouths of people who want to find a way to use animals, yet make it appear that they're not.

There are new Francione-style abolitionists and new people to veganism who debate about the ethics of consuming eggs from their neighbor's chickens. This trend of nastiness I've noticed that's probably about a year old happens to coincide with the rudeness we Americans have been hearing about in politics and society in general.
To the Editor: In your July 12 editorial “ A Humane Egg ,” you disparage the modern, sanitary housing systems for egg-laying hens, which have improved chickens’ health and well-being, improved consumer food safety and kept eggs a nutritious and economical staple on kitchen tables and restaurant menus nationwide.
With only 3-5 eggs per breeding attempt, it is less productive than the European Robin with its 4-7 eggs. Both species are classified as Least Concern, and the population trend is stable. While Japanese people are generally known for their work ethics, this does not quite seem to apply to the Japanese Robin. A bit later.
Of course, it is hard to resist looking at a paper titled “Host personality predicts cuckoo egg rejection in Daurian redstarts” Basically, the personality of a female redstart (bold or shy) predicts the responses to parasitic eggs – bold hosts are more likely to reject parasitic eggs.
The species is classified as Near Threatened for all the usual depressing reasons – pollution, drainage, hunting, and the collection of eggs and nestlings ( source ). Trust me, the species name makes sense for the male, though not for the female. It is also classified as Near Threatened.
The text describes the species’ appearance, including plumages and molts, habitats, migration patterns, feeding behavior, courtship and breeding behaviors, nest and egg information, subspecies, and population data.
There are probably other major trends that depend, for example, on latitude and timing. I do not assume that Manaus is fully representative of the planet earth, and I already pointed out St. Paul and St. Peter islands.
All the inhabited continents except Africa have experienced bird extinctions; however the 2012 update of the IUCN Red List shows a startling, but not altogether unexpected, trend in that more and more of our bird species are facing extinction. A pair of Hooded Vultures in Selous Game Reserve, Tanzania by Adam Riley.
The babies that hatched from these eggs were released on Florida’s east coast. In the past two years alone up until end of December 2011 approximately 600 marine mammal strandings have been reported and this trend seems to be continuing. We documented the relocation of several turtle nests.
