Ranges of North American Breeding Birds
Visualizing Long-term Population Changes In North American Breeding Birds
Data and maps presented courtesy of Jeff Price, Northern Prairie Science Center. Legend: See graphical legend below and on each map. These maps show changes in the distribution and abundance patterns of some North American birds for the last 20 years. For each species there are four maps, each representing the average distribution and abundance pattern over the five-year periods 1970-1974, 1975-1979, 1980-1984, and 1985-1989. The maps are based on data collected by the USFWS/CWS Breeding Bird Survey (BBS). Only BBS routes that were run at least once during each of the five-year periods were used (about 1300 routes). The maps were created in the software package Surfer using a kriging technique to interpolate mean relative abundances for areas where no routes were run. On each map, a portion of northeast Canada was blanked out because there were not enough routes to allow for adequate interpolation. All of the maps in this presentation use the same color scale (shown below). The minimum value mapped was 0.5 birds per route, which represents the edge of the species range.

Legend: For each township, filled squares indicate that nests or dependent young were recorded during 1950-1972. Filled triangles indicate that territorial males or pairs were recorded during a breeding season in 1950-1972. Open squares indicate that nests or dependent young were recorded prior to 1950. Open triangles indicate that territorial males or pairs were recorded during a breeding season prior to 1950. The taxonomic treatment in this report follows the AOU Check-list of North American Birds, fifth edition (1957), and the subsequent thirty-second supplement (1973), except as modified by changes proposed by Mayr and Short (1970). The maps shown were created by manually coding the symbols for each species and township, based on the maps in Stewart (1975), and creating new maps from those data. The new maps were checked for errors, but there is a possibility that some errors remain. Species Information Each species entry contains up to three types of information:

Rare Breeding Birds Panel
Contents Work of the Panel Panel species Recording forms Contact Information Work of the Panel
The Rare Breeding Birds Panel was formed in 1972 by representatives of the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds, the British Trust for Ornithology, The Nature Conservancy Council and British Birds . The present Panel is made up of representatives of the Joint Nature Conservation Committee, RSPB, BTO, and the Association of County Report Editors, together with two independent members and a Secretary. The Panel's prime function is to act as a secure depository of sensitive information on the breeding of rare birds in Britain. As its database has grown, the information it contains has proved to be of considerable value to the three country conservation agencies and a confidential report is compiled for them each year, though omitting nest locations if requested by the observer. An annual report for public consumption, with nest locations grouped by county or region, is published in the journal British Birds . Commencing with a report for 1996, a short additional report on the occurrence of the rarer non-native species breeding in Britain has also been published in

A unique project that has been harnessing the enthusiasm and skills of amateur and professional ornithologists throughout Arabia is now entering its tenth year. The Atlas of the Breeding Birds of Arabia project, ABBA for short, was the brain-child of Michael Jennings who has played a key role in running the project, now sponsored by the NCWCD, and in making sense out of all the data. We asked him to tell readers of Arabian Wildlife the background to ABBA and where it is heading from here.
A decade ago, if someone had asked me how many birds breed in Arabia, after some research, I could probably have answered "maybe about 180". But for many species I would have only a scanty idea of their status, breeding biology or how common they are in each area. Ten years on with the Atlas of the Breeding Birds of Arabia having been running since 1984, I can answer the question accurately, there are 236 birds known to breed in Arabia (October 1983) and we now have a very good idea of the status of all of them, their habitat, numbers and distribution. The objectives of the ABBA project were to establish which birds breed in Arabia, where, in what numbers, and to collect as much data as possible about breeding biology, habitat and historical changes etc. 1993 represents a milestone for the project as the Interim Atlas has now been completed, presenting the results of all data collected so far. In the longer term the final Atlas will appear and will provide a full review of each of the species breeding in Arabia.

and
Gary R. Lingle , Platte River Whooping Crane Trust The Platte River Valley in central Nebraska is known throughout North America for its concentrations of sandhill cranes and waterfowl during spring migration. Fully three-quarters of the world's population of lesser sandhill cranes, nearly all of the Central Flyway population of greater white-fronted goose, and over one million Canada geese spend most of the period from mid-February to early April along the Platte River. The yearly spectacle makes the Platte River a birdwatcher's paradise. The main objective of this study was to determine the numbers and kinds of bird species nesting in the area, their populations, habitat preferences, and the geographical distribution of each species across the area. Included are information about species status (including nests, fledglings, and nesting attempts), distribution, habitat use during the breeding season, the effect of habitat alteration on species distribution and abundance.

Welcome to the North American Breeding Bird Survey (BBS) web site. The BBS is a cooperative effort between the U.S. Geological Survey's Patuxent Wildlife Research Center and the Canadian Wildlife Service's National Wildlife Research Centre to monitor the status and trends of North American bird populations. Following a rigorous protocol, BBS data are collected by thousands of dedicated participants along thousands of randomly established roadside routes throughout the continent. Professional BBS coordinators and data managers work closely with researchers and statisticians to compile and deliver these population data and population trend analyses on more than 400 bird species, for use by conservation managers, scientists, and the general public.

Breeding Birds of the Platte River Valley
Populations of Breeding Birds
During extensive observations of bird populations conducted in the study area during 1979-80, we obtained data on 125 breeding bird species. Johnsgard (1979) listed 201 bird species that currently breed or have bred in Nebraska, thus our total represents 62% of the breeding avifauna of Nebraska. Of the 125 breeding bird species we observed, 101 species (82%) were found on the random sample plots. Confirmed records of nests or dependent young were obtained for 51 bird species during those two years. An additional 23 bird species were recorded during these surveys that were not found on the random census plots. Among these species were several (greater prairie chicken, least tern) with restricted breeding ranges. However, three species that are fairly common in the study area (red-tailed hawk, black-billed cuckoo, Say's phoebe) were not found on sample plots. Among habitat types, the greatest diversity occurred in lowland forest (55 species), and native prairie (51 species). Wheat and corn had the lowest species diversity, 18 and 3 species respectively. Those habitat types made up over 36% of the total habitat availability in the study area. The mean density of all breeding birds within the study area was 110 per km . The projected breeding bird population in the valley was about 3,100,000 breeding pairs. Investigations of total breeding bird populations over large areas have usually considered the population of a state (Stewart and Kantrud 1975; Graber and Graber 1963) or a country (Fisher 1940). Only Merikallio (1958) in Finland reported a lower mean breeding density (96 pairs/km

Birder's Journal: It's Survey Season for Breeding Birds By Robert Winkler
for National Geographic News
June 12, 2002
During June, as the nesting season of birds shifts into high gear across much of the United States and Canada, a small army of birders hits the road to conduct the North American Breeding Bird Survey. Beginning half an hour before sunrise, to catch the day's most intense period of bird song, they drive assigned 24.5-mile (40-kilometer) routes along secondary roads. At half-mile intervals, they stop and count the birds they see or hear within a radius of a quarter mile. A male Eastern bluebird sits on a nest box.

Pseudomonas Infection
in Pet and Breeding Birds

by Tiffany Margolin, DVM Does your bird have a "cold"? Is his nose runny, is he sneezing, or having other signs of a respiratory infection? There are many causes of respiratory problems in birds, but one of the most stubborn and elusive culprits is Pseudomonas. Recently, a green wing macaw named Jackpot was brought to our clinic because he had signs similar to those described above. A simple culture revealed that he had a sever Pseudomonas infection. What exactly is Pseudomonas? It is pronounced "sudamonas", and is a water-loving organism. It is most often found in water sources such as hoses, taps and even water-filtering systems. It is a gram-negative rod-like organism that is not normally found in a healthy bird. If it gains a foothold, it readily proliferates in the warm, moist environment of a bird's respiratory system. Unfortunately for both the bird and its owner, Pseudomonas can be very resistant to many commonly used antibiotics. Pseudomonal infections, by and large, involve the respiratory system. Signs of the infection may include clear or yellowish discharge from one or both nostrils, sneezing, scratching at the nose and ears, and conjuctivitis (red eyes). If the problem is detected early enough, much subtler signs may be the only ones present. For example, the feathers around the nostrils may just be slightly crusty.

Breeding Birds of Southeast Alaska
by Mark Schwan One of the surest signs of spring is the coming of the birds—back from their winter retreats to nest and raise their young. Many species we see in Southeast Alaska in the spring are just passing through. The Lapland Longspur flying over the Mendenhall wetlands may be on its way to Barrow; the Western Sandpipers probing the mud of the Stikine flats may nest on the Seward Peninsula. Neither species nests in Southeast Alaska. Many of the northbound migrants do stop here, however, and between our residents and summer visitors, approximately 160 species nest in the region. For some species their breeding range goes no further north than southeast Alaska. The region is therefore a fascinating place for Alaskan ornithologists and bird watchers. The islands generally do not have extensive deciduous zones, and the spruce-hemlock forest is home to fewer breeding species than on the mainland. Only one flycatcher, the Western (or Pacific-slope) Flycatcher, is common, although this bird is very difficult to see. It generally stays high up in the trees and is only detected by its song or call. The same holds true for the Townsend's Warbler. One of the most beautiful nesting birds of the spruce-hemlock forest, it can drive the bird watcher crazy. This species is much easier to see after the nesting season, when it is starting to move south in flocks and is in more open terrain, away from nesting locations.
