42. Arabia's Breeding Birds On The Map The Atlas of the breeding birds of Arabia project, ABBA for short, A decade ago, if someone had asked me how many birds breed in Arabia, http://www.arabianwildlife.com/archive/vol1.1/brdbrd.htm

Arabia's Breeding Birds on the Map A Voyage of Discovery by Michael Jennings CLICK ON MAP FOR ENLARGEMENT (54k JPEG) 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.

Species Library Breeding Birds Breeding Birds in the Wider Countryside (link to BTO) This report is a "one-stop-shop" for information about the population status of our common terrestrial birds. Users can quickly find all the key information about trends in population size and breeding performance of each species, as measured by BTO monitoring schemes. It not only reports on population trends over the UK as a whole, but also, where possible, within specific habitats and regions. An early warning 'alerts system' shows where there are worrying declines in population size or reproductive success. The report is produced annually by the British Trust for Ornithology (BTO), in partnership with JNCC, and is meant to be a working document that can be used primarily by conservation practitioners as a ready reference guide to the current changes in status of breeding birds in the UK. BTO Common Bird Census results for 1998 This report presents a summary of the results of the Common Bird Census (CBC) for 1998 in the form of population changes since the 1997 breeding season. These data form part of a long-running series charting bird population changes for about 70 species since the early 1960s. More information about the CBC is available from

Involving people Cirl bunting Rare breeding birds Native red kites continued their increase in Wales, with well over 300 pairs in 2003, from just 30 only 30 years ago. Kites reintroduced in Scotland and England thrive and attract huge public interest at viewing sites. We continue to monitor their progress and promote the safer use of rodenticides to prevent accidental poisoning, which kills kites every year. White-tailed eagles have been reintroduced to Scotland through a successful collaborative scheme. Thirty-one pairs reared 26 young birds in 2003, making it the best year since the scheme began in the 1970s. We hope that this dramatic eagle will soon be securely established. The roseate tern remains rare, with problems in its West African wintering areas, but at Coquet Island in Northumberland 70 pairs was the best total since the 1970s, a reward for our efforts including providing boxes and platforms to help them nest safely. Once widespread in southern England, cirl buntings declined to a few score pairs in Devon. We helped develop ways for farmers to help them: there are now almost 700 pairs in 2003

New breeding birds make West Sedgemoor home Little egrets are breeding for the first time at the RSPB's West Sedgemoor nature reserve, near Taunton in Somerset. The species, a sort of heron, has attractive white plumes on its crest, black legs and bill and yellow feet - which look as if it is wearing washing up gloves on them! They first bred in the UK, in neighbouring Dorset, less than ten years ago but have gradually spread to other sites in southern and eastern England. Little egrets nest communally, often alongside the nests of other herons, and their colonies can be found in reedbeds and in trees near water, up to a height of around 20 metres. West Sedgemoor warden, Harry Paget-Wilkes, said: 'I've seen as many as 15 little egrets feeding in shallow ditches and pools, created for wading birds, at the reserve over the last few weeks and I was hoping they might join the grey herons in Swell Wood.' 'one of the pairs of little egrets has built a nest in full view of the public hide, making this one of the few places in the country where people can easily see little egrets nesting'

This was the first breeding bird survey in New York history. The results were published in a book, The Atlas of Breeding Birds in New York State . During that survey period, despite a lack of coverage in many remote areas of the town, Otselic emerged as one of the richest breeding bird areas in the state. In addition, many species found breeding here are outside their "normal" breeding areas. For example, the White-Winged Crossbill was never known to breed outside the Adirondacks in New York State until 1985-6 when young were found in Spruce forest on the Ridge Road. Each bird species must nest in a particular habitat. While the requirements of some birds, such as the Robin, are very broad and they can nest almost anywhere, most have very narrow requirements. For example, the Louisiana Waterthrush , a Warbler that comes here from South America, can only breed in forested gorges with fast flowing mountain brooks. In Otselic, these birds breed at Buck's Brook, Thompson Brook, and Gorge Brook. They can't nest anywhere else. In most areas, these gorges and ravines have been filled, bulldozed, and cleared so the

Cuckoo: Sound of spring less heard The 2002 breeding bird survey collected information on birds throughout the UK. Of the 105 species monitored across the country, 29 had declined significantly since 1994, but 52 had registered significant increases. The government uses changes in breeding birds' status as an indicator of the UK's sustainable development. The survey, which began in 1994, is carried out by the British Trust for Ornithology, the Joint Nature Conservation Committee, and the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds. Popular survivors Volunteer birdwatchers are given randomly-selected one-kilometre squares to visit three times in the season. Each of them spends about two hours early in the day counting all the birds they see and hear.

B.C. Ministry of Forests Forest Science Program Abstract for Land Management Handbook 33 Breeding Bird Communities in Aspen Forests of the Sub-boreal Spruce (dk Subzone) in the Prince Rupert Forest Region Author: Rosamund A Pojar Branch: Research Subject: Biodiversity Series: Land Management Handbook Other details: Published 1995, 64 pages. Abstract A principal objective of this project was the study of the diversity of bird communities in different seral stages of the aspen ecosystem in the Sub-boreal Spruce (dk subzone) of the Prince Rupert Forest Region. In the spring of 1991 and 1992, I examined clearcuts (under 7 years), sapling aspen (7-23 years), mature aspen (50-60 years), old aspen with 100-year-old veterans, and mixed aspen-conifer stands. A preliminary survey of some conifer stands was also conducted. I counted birds over the 2 years using a modified point count method. One aspen stand was also examined by spot mapping. Results showed a tendency for bird species richness, abundance, and diversity to all increase with increasing ecological age of the seral stage. Analysis of variance showed that differences in species numbers, bird abundance, and diversity between seral stages were significant for both breeding birds and total bird use. Numbers of breeding species, their abundance, and diversity indices were significantly lower in clearcuts than in sapling stands. Species abundance and diversity of breeding birds were greater in mixed aspen-conifer stands than in old and mature pure aspen combined. The number of breeding species in mixed stands was greater than that in pure aspen only in the second year of the study. Old aspen stands contained more birds and the species diversity was greater than in mature stands. The overall abundance of birds differed significantly between the 2 study years.

What is a Bird Species in Quebec About the data About the text What is a bird? Birds differ from other animals by a few easily definable characteristics, almost all of which have been dictated by flight. Firstly, birds, and only birds, have feathers. Whether or not a bird species has retained the ability to fly, the body architecture of all bird species is remarkably similar. In order to fly, a bird must overcome two basic limitations: reduction of weight and increase of power; most of the adaptations undergone in this class of animals have been in response to these limitations. The bones of birds are hollow and light, making it easy for them to become airborne, yet strategically reinforced, to withstand the stress of landing, hopping and running. These superlight bones are then powered by massive flight muscles attached to the sternum, or breastbone. How many species are there in Quebec? There are approximately 240 species of nesting birds (birds that build nests and breed) in Quebec. Some are year-round occupants in this province and others are migratory birds which only spend part of the year here. Below is listed a selection of breeding birds that are either common to Quebec or of particular interest for bird-lovers.

GREESON'S BABY PARROTS Updated: September 05, 2005 Don and I have been breeding birds since 1980. As you can see, I have been a bird lover for a really long time. This picture was taken in 1953! We work hard to do things right and consider it a labor of love since we enjoy them so much. We started exhibiting at bird shows in 1984..took seven out of ten on the top bench, including Best in Show, at that first show, and don't you know we were hooked. We took many years to accumulate our breeding stock, selecting only the very best of each species. As a result our babies are of excellent quality. We never breed two birds just to produce more.. the goal is always to improve on their beauty and confirmation. I serve the hobby as an American Cockatiel Society Panel Judge. We breed many species of exotics including African Greys, Conures, Pionus, Cockatoos, Macaws, Quakers, Ringnecks and Amazons.
