2020 Upland Game Bird Hunting Season Frameworks
Oregon Upland Game Bird Hunting Season Framework Effective dates: September 1, 2015 through August 31, 2020 Prepared by Wildlife Division Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife 4034 Fairview Industrial Dr SE Salem, Oregon 97302 Proposed 2015 -2020 Upland Game Bird Framework Executive Summary Oregon’s diverse habitats support 12 species of upland game birds, 8 of which are native, and 10 of which have hunting seasons. This document contains the proposed framework for upland game bird hunting seasons for the next five years. The seasons are designed to provide recreational hunting opportunities compatible with the overall status of upland game bird populations. The multi-year framework approach for setting upland game bird regulations was first adopted by the Oregon Fish and Wildlife Commission in 1996 for a 3-year period and again in 1999, 2004, and 2009 for 5-year periods. The role of regulations in game bird management has many functions including protection of a species, providing recreational opportunities, and in consultation with hunters to provide bag limits and seasons. Regulations should be as simple as possible to make them easy to understand. These frameworks are also based on the concept that annual fluctuations in upland bird numbers, which can vary greatly and are normal, should not be the basis for setting hunting seasons year by year. Standardized frameworks are biologically sound management tools that help the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife (Department) provide consistent, stable regulations that reduce confusion, assist hunters with planning trips, and lower administrative costs. In an effort to stabilize hunting regulations, the following concepts are the foundation for the frameworks offered in this document: Many upland game bird populations exhibit a high annual death rate and cannot be stockpiled from year to year Similar annual death rates occur in most upland game bird populations whether they are hunted or not.

The Impact of Wind Energy Facilities on Grouse: a Systematic Review
Journal of Ornithology (2020) 161:1–15 https://doi.org/10.1007/s10336-019-01696-1 REVIEW The impact of wind energy facilities on grouse: a systematic review Joy Coppes1 · Veronika Braunisch1,2 · Kurt Bollmann3 · Ilse Storch4 · Pierre Mollet5 · Veronika Grünschachner‑Berger6,7 · Julia Taubmann1,4 · Rudi Suchant1 · Ursula Nopp‑Mayr8 Received: 17 January 2019 / Revised: 1 July 2019 / Accepted: 18 July 2019 / Published online: 1 August 2019 © Deutsche Ornithologen-Gesellschaft e.V. 2019 Abstract There is increasing concern about the impact of the current boom in wind energy facilities (WEF) and associated infra- structure on wildlife. However, the direct and indirect efects of these facilities on the mortality, occurrence and behaviour of rare and threatened species are poorly understood. We conducted a literature review to examine the potential impacts of WEF on grouse species. We studied whether grouse (1) collide with wind turbines, (2) show behavioural responses in relation to wind turbine developments, and (3) if there are documented efects of WEF on their population sizes or dynam- ics. Our review is based on 35 sources, including peer-reviewed articles as well as grey literature. Efects of wind turbine facilities on grouse have been studied for eight species. Five grouse species have been found to collide with wind turbines, in particular with the towers. Fifteen studies reported behavioural responses in relation to wind turbine facilities in grouse (seven species), including spatial avoidance, displacement of lekking or nesting sites, or the time invested in breeding vs. non-breeding behaviour. Grouse were afected at up to distances of 500 m by WEF infrastructure, with indications of efects also at bigger distances.

This is an open access article distributed under the Creative Commons Attribution License, which permits unrestricted use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited. Traits involved in sexual signaling are ubiquitous among animals. Although a single trait appears sufficient to convey information, many sexually dimorphic species exhibit multiple sexual signals, which may be costly to signalers and receivers. Given that one signal may be enough, there are many microevolutionary hypotheses to explain the evolution of multiple signals. Here we extend these hypotheses to a macroevolutionary scale and compare those predictions to the patterns of gains and losses of sexual dimorphism in pheasants and partridges. Among nine dimorphic characters, including six intersexual signals and three indicators of competitive ability, all exhibited both gains and losses of dimorphism within the group. Although theories of intersexual selection emphasize gain and elaboration, those six characters exhibited greater rates of loss than gain; in contrast, the competitive traits showed a slight bias towards gains. The available models, when examined in a macroevolutionary framework, did not yield unique predictions, making it difficult to distinguish among them.

The Use of Infrared-Triggered Cameras for Surveying Phasianids in Sichuan Province, China
Ibis (2010), 152, 299–309 The use of infrared-triggered cameras for surveying phasianids in Sichuan Province, China SHENG LI,1* WILLIAM J. MCSHEA,2 DAJUN WANG,1 LIANGKUN SHAO3 &XIAOGANGSHI4 1Center for Nature and Society, College of Life Sciences, Peking University, Beijing, 100871, China 2Conservation and Research Center, National Zoological Park, Front Royal, VA 22630, USA 3Wanglang National Nature Reserve, Pingwu County, Sichuan Province, 622550, China 4Wolong National Nature Reserve, Sichuan Province, 623006, China We report on the use of infrared-triggered cameras as an effective tool to survey phasia- nid populations in Wanglang and Wolong Nature Reserves, China. Surveys at 183 camera-trapping sites recorded 30 bird species, including nine phasianids (one grouse and eight pheasant species). Blood Pheasant Ithaginis cruentus and Temminck’s Tragopan Tragopan temminckii were the phasianids most often detected at both reserves and were found within the mid-elevation range (2400–3600 m asl). The occupancy rate and detec- tion probability of both species were examined using an occupancy model relative to eight sampling covariates and three detection covariates. The model estimates of occupancy for Blood Pheasant (0.30) and Temminck’s Tragopan (0.14) are close to the naïve estimates based on camera detections (0.27 and 0.13, respectively). The estimated detection probability during a 5-day period was 0.36 for Blood Pheasant and 0.30 for Temminck’s Tragopan. The daily activity patterns for these two species were assessed from the time ⁄ date stamps on the photographs and sex ratios calculated for Blood Pheasant (152M : 72F) and Temminck’s Tragopan (48M : 21F).

B. Population status and habitat assessment of Cheer Pheasant (Catreus wallichii) in Western Nepal. – Ornis Hungarica 28(2): 111–119. DOI: 10.2478/orhu-2020-0020 Abstract The Cheer Pheasant (Catreus wallichii) is a protected species found abundantly to the west of Kali- gandaki River. This study was conducted in the Myagdi district located in the western part of Kaligandaki River from October 2016 to June 2017. Our aim was to assess the habitat and population status of Cheer Pheasant, us- ing acoustic survey and quadrate methods. A total of 38 breeding individuals were estimated in 7 bird/km2 density. The study also revealed that Cheer Pheasants showed a preference for exposure components of the habitat. They preferred moderately steep eastern slopes (10–35°) and steep southern slopes (35–67°) between 1800–2400 m el- evations. Additionally low tree density and high herbs density showed a significant effect on the habitat choice of the species. Poaching and habitat destruction are the major threats in the study site, calling upon a strategic man- agement plan for the long-term conservation of the Cheer Pheasant.

Greater Sage-Grouse Conservation Objectives: Final Report 2013
United States Department of the Interior FISH AND WILDLIFE SERVICE WasMiAWoni ~c2 0~J40 Dear Interested Reader: Last spring, I asked each state within the range of the greater sage-grouse to join the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) in a first-of-its-kind, collaborative approach to develop range wide conservation objectives for the sage-grouse, both to inform our upcoming 2015 decision under the Endangered Species Act and to inform the collective conservation efforts of the many partners working to conserve the species. Recognizing that state wildlife agencies have management expertise and management authority for sage-grouse, we convened a Conservation Objectives Team (COT) of state and Service representatives. I asked the team to produce a recommendation regarding the degree to which threats need to be reduced or ameliorated to conserve the greater sage-grouse so that it would no longer be in danger of extinction or likely to become in danger of extinction in the foreseeable future. The final, peer-reviewed COT report (attached here) delineates such objectives, based upon the best scientific and commercial data available at the time of its release. I would like to clarify here the Service's interpretation of a few issues that I know are of interest to our state partners. The highest level objective identified in the report is to minimize habitat threats to the species so as to meet the objective of the 2006 Western Association ofFish and Wildlife Agencies' (W AFW A) Greater Sage-grouse Comprehensive Conservation Strategy: reversing negative population trends and achieving a neutral or positive population trend.

DUDLEY* British Ornithologists’ Union, Department of Zoology, University of Oxford, South Parks Road, Oxford OX1 3PS, UK In its maintenance of the British List, the British Ornithologists’ Union Records Committee (BOURC) is responsible for assigning species to categories to indicate their status on the List. In 1995, the British Ornithologists’ Union (BOU) and the Joint Nature Conservation Committee (JNCC) held a conference on naturalized and introduced birds in Britain (Holmes & Simons 1996). This led to a review of the process of establishment of such species and the terms that best describe their status (Holmes & Stroud 1995) as well as a major review of the categorization of species on the British List (Holmes et al. 1998). The BOURC continues to review the occurrence and establishment of birds of captive origin in Britain. This paper sum- marizes the status of naturalized and introduced birds in Britain and announces changes to the categorization of many on the British List or its associated appendices (Categories D and E): Mute Swan Cygnus olor Categories AC change to AC2 Black Swan Cygnus atratus Category E* – no change Greylag Goose Anser anser Categories ACE* change to AC2C4E* Snow Goose Anser caerulescens Categories AE* change to AC2E* Greater Canada Goose Branta canadensis Categories ACE* change to C2E* Barnacle Goose Branta leucopsis Categories AE* change to AC2E* Egyptian Goose Alopochen aegyptiacus Categories CE* change

BLUE GROUSE and RUFFED GROUSE (Dendragapus Obscurus and Bonasa Umbellus)
Chapter 13 BLUE GROUSE AND RUFFED GROUSE (Dendragapus obscurus and Bonasa umbellus) Harry Harju I. CENSUS – A. Production Surveys – 1. Rationale – Random brood counts are a survey method used to assess the reproductive success of blue or ruffed grouse. Unfortunately, these counts are done too late in the year to be considered in setting or adjusting hunting seasons. If the sample size is large enough, the counts can help identify important habitats used by broods and can provide insight to the potential quality of hunting in the fall. 2. Application – Random brood counts can be conducted on foot, from horseback or from a vehicle and should cover all portions of the brood-rearing area. A good pointing dog is invaluable to locate broods. If a flushing dog is used, it should be trained to walk very close to the observer. Each time a grouse is seen, record the species, location, age, sex and habitat on a wildlife observation form. If a count is incomplete, circle the number of birds recorded. The time frame for these surveys is July 15 to August 31. Warm, clear days are best for brood counts. The best results are obtained by searching for broods in the first two and last three hours of daylight. When a well-trained dog is used, counts can be conducted throughout the day. 3. Analysis of Data – Refer to chapter 12 (Sage-grouse), Section II.B (Brood Production). 4. Disposition of Data – All records of brood observations are forwarded to Regional Wildlife Management Coordinators for proofing, and then entered into the Wildlife Observation System Database.
