Bird Ringing Station Manual
Author: Przemyslaw Busse
Publisher: Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG
ISBN: 8376560530
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 230
Book Description
In an attempt to standardize elements of the station routine, the book describes the procedures used in passerine and wader ringing stations. It offers a comparative analysis of versatile evaluation techniques such as measurements, orientation experiments and monitoring. The authors meticulously analyze different methods used to track birds, including catching passerines with mist-nets in land and wetland habitat, as well as the use of the Heligoland trap. The monograph, as a successful bid to establish a bird station routine that is favourable to both birds and ringers, will benefit all professional and amateur ringers.

The Canadian Bird Bander's Training Manual
Author: Jon D. McCracken
Publisher: Hull, Québec : Canadian Wildlife Service
ISBN:
Category : Bird banding
Languages : en
Pages : 128
Book Description
The Canadian Bird Bander's Training Manual and the companion, The Instructor's Guide have been designed to complement each other. Both are the result of the collective work of many experienced banders and trainers from Long Point Bird Observatory. The motivating factors in the production of these manuals have been to ensure the safety and welfare of the birds involved in any banding project, as well as to ensure that banders gather accurate and complete data.

Bird Ringing
Author: Dawn E. Balmer
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781906204457
Category : Bird banding
Languages : en
Pages : 75
Book Description
2009 sees the celebration of 100 years of bird ringing in Britain and Ireland, and this guide highlights some of the major achievements of the Scheme over that time. People have always been fascinated by the movements of birds, whether they be seasonal comings and goings of migrants, or local movements of our own breeding birds. Ringing has long been the best tool to answer many of these questions, from the first bird ringed (a Lapwing) in Aberdeen in 1909. Since then, over 35 million birds have been ringed by trained and licensed BTO volunteers, from seabirds on remote Scottish islands, to common-or-garden birds caught at standardised ringing sites. Bird Ringing is an ideal training tool for ringers, explaining how and why we ring birds. It contains numerous examples of how ringing has contributed to conservation science and research, and how it helps us understand population changes by providing information on survival and recruitment. The guide is also a great introduction to bird ringing for non-ringers, not only highlighting the Scheme's successes, but also explaining why we still need to keep ringing today. Full of facts and figures, you can find out about some of the Scheme's record-breakers: which bird lives to over 50 years old? Which bird has travelled the furthest, found 18,000 km from home? How old is our oldest Blackbird? Which bird was found in the stomach of a crocodile in The Gambia? Which group of three birds ringed in Cambridgeshire were found together later the same day, 350 km away in France?

Molt in Neotropical Birds
Author: Erik I. Johnson
Publisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 1351646079
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 737
Book Description
Molt is an important avian life history event in which feathers are shed and replaced. The timing, duration, seasonality, extent and pattern of molt follows certain strategies and this book reviews and describes these strategies for nearly 190 species based on information gathered from a 30-year study of Central Amazonian birds. Most species accounts are illustrated with several color photos focusing on wing and tail feather molt, molt limits, and how to use these patterns to accurately age birds. Published in collaboration with and on behalf of the American Ornithological Society, this volume in the highly-regarded Studies in Avian Biology series is a rich source of life history information for ornithologists working on tropical birds.
