A Source Manual of Raptors Occurring on Corps of Engineers Lands in the Pacific Northwest Region
Author: Tracy L. Flemming
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Birds of prey
Languages : en
Pages : 266
Book Description
This report serves as a source manual of raptors occurring on Army Corps of Engineers lands in the Pacific Northwest. It consists primarily of a comprehensive literature review covering aspects of the biology of 35 species of eagles, hawks, falcons, vultures, and owls. The manual was developed to provide biologists and resource managers with background information to facilitate the application of sound raptor management practices on project lands. While the literature is cosmopolitan, references are applicable to species found in, but not limited to, the Pacific Northwest. Approximately 4,000 citations, compiled through 1983, are included. General guidelines on raptor management and survey techniques are provided. An outline of techniques is given for habitat assessment, development, and management applicable to Federal lands, and recommendations are provided for management needs regarding various land use practices and recreational activities. Basic procedures for conducting raptor nesting surveys, migration counts, and winter surveys are outlined. Raptor studies conducted on project lands in the US Army Engineer Division, North Pacific, are summarized.

The Great Horned Owl
Author: Scott Rashid
Publisher: Schiffer Publishing
ISBN: 9780764347665
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
"The Great Horned Owl is the largest owl found throughout most of North America. Adult owls are between 18 and 24 inches from head to tail and can have a wing span of more than 4 feet. Their long ear tufts and cryptic coloration enable them to remain well hidden during the day, often out of sight of sharp-eyed diurnal raptors and eagle-eyed birders. Through more than 130 photographs and illustrations, take an in-depth look into the life of this very impressive and formidable bird. Explore the owls' food habits, nesting sites, how they raise their young, and the rehabilitation of injured owls. The one-of-a-kind photographs and comprehensive descriptions make this a must-have treasure to be enjoyed by all ages. It is sure to become the go-to reference on the Great Horned Owl."--Page 4 of cover.

Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 188
Book Description
The first comprehensive treatment of North American rodents of conservation concern. This action plan summarizes the rodent fauna of North America and provides available information on every rodent taxon that has been considered to be of conservation concern by state, provincial and private conservation agencies and regional experts. It is hoped that the survey provided in this action plan will serve as a common ground for all these parties in drawing up conservation strategies for rodents.

Current Ornithology Volume 17
Author: Charles F. Thompson
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 1441964215
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 201
Book Description
Current Ornithology publishes authoritative, up-to-date, scholarly reviews of topics selected from the full range of current research in avian biology. Topics cover the spectrum from the molecular level of organization to population biology and community ecology. The series seeks especially to review (1) fields in which an abundant recent literature will benefit from synthesis and organization, or (2) newly emerging fields that are gaining recognition as the result of recent discoveries or shifts in perspective, or (3) fields in which students of vertebrates may benefit from comparisons of birds with other classes. All chapters are invited, and authors are chosen for their leadership in the subjects under review.
