Page iii THE BLUEBIRD It does not seem possible that we have reached the half way point in 2008 and that we are a couple of months from the fall meeting. Plan- ning is going well and as always, it promises to be a good one. For those of you who are already making plans to attend, we will have the usual field trips and we will be adding Saline Valley CA to the list of other great spots. This year we will be hosting the students who were the re- cipients of the Paul and Fran Bauer Scholar- ship Fund. They will be giving presentations on their topic of studies. Robin Hirsch- J-acobson (2006 recipient ofthe ASM Graduate Research Scholarship) will be giving us an update on his research entitled, "Effects of Late Season Nests on Source-Sink Dynamics in Mid Missouri Forest Fragments" and Andrew Cox (2007 recipient) will give us an update on his research entitled, "Identification of Important Nest Predators and the Factors that Influence their Contribution to Overall Predation Rates in a Midwestern Landscape. The update should be quite informative and very interesting. As always, there will be the great food that our caterers have been providing for the past several years. It has gotten to the point that the food is just as important as the events that we offer for our membership! Our caterers have been with us for many years and the fall meeting has become synony- mous of both good food and good company. This summer has been a very busy one as I have been working with the De- partment of Natural Resources on a new agreement for the SPARKS pro- ject. I am pleased that we came to an agreement and have a new list of state parks to be birded. The new areas are: Bennett Springs State Park (SP), Dr. Edmund A. Babler Memorial SP, Katy Trail SP, Morris SP, Sam A. Baker SP, Big Oak Tree SP, Washington SP, and Meramec SP. Also, at the time of this writing, Brad Jacobs ofthe Missouri Department of Conservation and I are working on a new agreement for the CACHE IV project. Careful consid- eration is being given to the new sites because of the increase in fuel prices and an economy that is not too friendly for most of our pocket books. I have gone to our board of directors asking for suggestions on potential new sites that they thought would work under these conditions. All of the sites that have been submitted are being considered. These sites are also being exam- ined for their relation to the SPARKS target areas, in order to make it more productive for both projects and for those who will be birding these areas. We can be very proud of ASM and what we as an organization have accom- plished over the past few years. With our involvement with both the Mis- Page 1 THE BLUEBIRD so uri Department of Conservation and the Missouri Department of Natural Resources, ASM has made contributions to these agencies that have made a difference in the birding community. I would encourage all of you to con- tinue to get out when time allows. Go to some of the areas that you have not visited in a while and take a friend. Share the expense so that there is not a burden to the leader/driver. For those who continue to go out and work these areas, my "Thanks" to you for your dedication to both ASM and the partnership projects. Jim Zellmer The Audubon Society of Missouri A Note from the Editor Bill Eddleman As reported in the last issue, I have agreed to be the editor of The Bluebird. First of all, I would like to thank Clint Trammel for his service in the last year as editor. I would also like to thank Jim Zellmer for allowing me to renege on my offer to be Vice-President. I've often considered editing The Bluebird, but the time was not ripe until now. I told Jim when I agreed to do the editor job that I intended to do it for around 10 years, because I think ASM will benefit from some stability in the quarterly. So .. .look for me to stick around for awhile! One of my goals is to change the "look" of The Bluebird, with your input and the input of design professionals. However, don't look for any drastic changes in The Bluebird immediately. There is one more issue in this volume, so I do not want to alter the appearance just yet. I also assure you that the only change in content I would like to imple- ment is an increased use of scientific (peer-reviewed) papers. This is not to change The Bluebird, but to make a lot more of the good studies that happen in Missouri more accessible to the birding community, to raise our profile in birding and professional circles, and to provide a better local outlet for publications on Missouri birds. I also want to continue to use all the "joy of birding" articles, photos, artwork, and other contribu- tions that you can provide.

    1 MMMOOOBCI HHHABITAT NNNEWS A Publication of the Missouri Bird Conservation Initiative SSSUMMER ,,, 2020201020 101010 Dear MoBCI Partners and Friends , Whether one is walking in the forest watching or listening to a Cerulean Warbler high in the sycamore trees, or watching a Short eared owl patrol the grassland at dusk or walking through the marsh looking for Virginal Rail – one realizes the old saying “Go where the birds are” has relevance. Habitat is critical to the success to the bird’s ability to breed, hunt for food and survive. Restoring a habitat not only benefits the birds, but other wildlife as well! The Missouri Bird Conservation Initiative (MoBCI), through its partners and grant programs, works to protect, maintain and restore critical habitat for many bird species and their habitat needs. Last year, the MoBCI Grant program funded through the Missouri Department of Conservation provided $106,000 for on the ground habitat restoration. More details regarding the Grants are found in this newsletter! In May, MoBCI with the assistance from the Missouri Department of Conservation (MDC) had the privilege to meet with First Lady, Georganne Wheeler Nixon. At the meeting, Mrs. Nixon spoke with the MoBCI Steering Committee and special guests including the MDC Director Bob Ziehmer. The First Lady represented Governor Jay Nixon in proclaiming May 12 as ‘Bird Conservation Day’! The MoBCI Committee presented to her a framed print of the Cerulean Warbler (the focus bird for this year). The artwork was from Brad Jacob’s book “Birds of Missouri”. Through this past year, the MoBCI Steering Committee has been involved in meetings, conferences and projects throughout the state.
