  • Eastern Wood-Pewee (Contopus Virens) Breeding Demography Across a Gradient of Savanna, Woodland, and Forest in the Missouri Ozarks
    The Auk 130(2):355−363, 2013 The American Ornithologists’ Union, 2013. Printed in USA. EASTERN WOOD-PEWEE (CONTOPUS VIRENS) BREEDING DEMOGRAPHY ACROSS A GRADIENT OF SAVANNA, WOODLAND, AND FOREST IN THE MISSOURI OZARKS SARAH W. KENDRICK,1,3 FRANK R. THOMPSON III,2 AND JENNIFER L. REIDY1 1Department of Fisheries and Wildlife, University of Missouri, 302 ABNR Building, Columbia, Missouri 65211, USA; and 2U.S. Department of Agriculture, Forest Service, Northern Research Station, 202 ABNR Building, University of Missouri, Columbia, Missouri 65211, USA Abstract.—Better knowledge of bird response to savanna and woodland restoration is needed to inform management of these communities. We related temporal and habitat variables to breeding demography and densities of the Eastern Wood-Pewee (Contopus virens) across a gradient of savanna, woodland, and forest. We determined nest success, clutch size, young fledged, and breeding densities and evaluated support for relationships with year, nest stage, date, nest height, tree cover, and percent forest in a 10-km radius. One hundred and twenty-eight of 310 nests (41.3%) fledged young. The most supported nest-survival model included nest stage and percent forest in the landscape. Daily nest survival was greater in the incubation than in the nestling stage and increased substantially with decreasing forest in the landscape. Four nests (1.3%) were parasitized by Brown-headed Cowbirds (Molothrus ater). Eastern Wood- Pewee density increased 83% over a range of 10–170% tree cover (percent tree stocking). Increased nest success with decreasing forest in the landscape indicates that Eastern Wood-Pewees are not highly susceptible to forest-fragmentation effects in the Missouri Ozarks, probably because they were not very susceptible to brood parasitism.

Red high status and either high biological vulnerability or high action need Category Range Score Status -20 to 20 10 Biological -50 to 50 -30 Action -40 to 40 12 Higher numerical scores denote greater concern Status - variables measure the trend in a taxon’s population status or distribution. Higher status scores denote taxa with known declining trends. Status scores range from -20 (increasing) to 20 (decreasing). Score Population Trend in Alaska (-10 to 10) 10 Long-term (1993-2015) trends indicate significant, negative declines in Alaska's Northern Pacific Rainforest and Northwestern Interior Forest regions (Handel and Sauer 2017). Shorter-term (2003- 2015) trends are harder to test for significance because this species is infrequently detected, especially in southeast Alaska, but roadside surveys in the interior suggest a negative trend (Handel and Sauer 2017). These declines are in line with continental trends: Western Wood-Pewees have been undergoing long-term declines across most of their North American range (Sauer et al. 2017). Distribution Trend in Alaska (-10 to 10) 0 Unknown. Status Total: 10 Biological - variables measure aspects of a taxon’s distribution, abundance and life history. Higher biological scores suggest greater vulnerability to extirpation. Biological scores range from -50 (least vulnerable) to 50 (most vulnerable).

  • Order : Anseriformes
    Checklist of the Birds of British Columbia Jamie Fenneman University of British Columbia Vancouver, BC Rick Toochin (Revised: July 2014) This checklist covers the 563 bird species and all recognized subspecies that have been observed in British Columbia and its coastal waters (to a distance of 200 miles), including all exotic species that have established breeding populations in the province for at least 20 years, even if these populations eventually died out. Species which breed or have bred in the province are marked with an asterisk. Each species on this list has been documented by a specimen, photograph, or field notes, although the natural occurrence of several species is considered questionable (e.g., Demoiselle Crane, American Woodcock, Blue Rock-Thrush). A number of species on this list have not been peer-reviewed, but are included in order to illustrate the diversity of species that have been reported in the province by birders and ornithologists. Species for which the veracity of the occurrence is particularly difficult to assess are included at the end of the document as “Excluded Species.” Footnotes are provided for additional clarification on the status of many species. Species-level taxonomy follows the most recent checklist of the American Ornithologist’s Union (AOU), while subspecific taxonomy is based primarily on the Birds of North America species accounts, which are the most recent comprehensive assessment of subspecies for North American breeding birds.
