No quotation from it or information derived from it is to be published without full acknowledgement of the source.

University of Cape Town University of Cape Town PREFACE The study of the Karoo Korhaan allowed me a far broader insight in to the Karoo than would otherwise have been possible. The vast openness of the Karoo is a monotony to those who have not stopped and looked. Many people were instrumental in not only encouraging me to stop and look but also in teaching me to see. The farmers on whose land I worked are to be applauded for their unquestioning approval of my activities and general enthusiasm for studies concerning the veld and I am particularly grateful to Mnr. and Mev. Obermayer (Hebron/Merino), Mnr. and Mev. Steenkamp (Inverdoorn), Mnr. Bothma (Excelsior) and Mnr. Van der Merwe. Alwyn and Joan Pienaar of Bokvlei have my deepest gratitude for their generous hospitality and firm friendship. Richard and Sue Dean were a constant source of inspiration throughout the study and their diligence and enthusiasm in the field is an example to us all.

    Behaviour Patterns of the Cage-Housed Breeding Flock of Pheasants (Phasianus Colchicus)

    ACTA UNIVERSITATIS AGRICULTURAE ET SILVICULTURAE MENDELIANAE BRUNENSIS Volume LIX 28 Number 3, 2011 BEHAVIOUR PATTERNS OF THE CAGE-HOUSED BREEDING FLOCK OF PHEASANTS (PHASIANUS COLCHICUS) D. Zapletal, P. Suchý, E. Straková, F. Vitula, J. Kuchtík Received: December 1, 2010 Abstract ZAPLETAL, D., SUCHÝ, P., STRAKOVÁ, E., VITULA, F., KUCHTÍK, J.: Behaviour patterns of the cage- housed breeding fl ock of pheasants (Phasianus colchicus). Acta univ. agric. et silvic. Mendel. Brun., 2011, LIX, No. 3, pp. 215–220 The aim of this work was to investigate the behaviour patterns of a cage-housed breeding fl ock of pheasants during the day in the early stage of laying period, and evaluate the diff erences in behaviour patterns between male and female pheasants. Observations were carried out with a fl ock of common pheasants (Phasianus colchicus) consisting of 1 male and 5 female pheasants aged 2 years that showed a minimum rate of aggression in the previous laying. Behaviour patterns of birds were studied using a 15-minute video recording taken at each hour during the day (from 7 a.m. until 7 p.m.). The rates of activities such as feeding, movement, resting, scratching, preening, mating and aggression in female pheasants diff ered signifi cantly from those in the male, as observed throughout the day. The rate of feeding had 2 peaks in hens (in early morning and late evening). Generally, the feed intake in females was observed throughout the day whereas the male received feed less frequently but at a higher rate, particularly in the a ernoon. The highest rate of movement was observed for both male and female pheasants in morning hours followed by a decline in movement activities which was slow in hens and rapid in the cock, with the subsequent second peak before dark.
  • The Autobiograhpy of Otto Widmann

    The Autobiograhpy of Otto Widmann

    146 The Wilson Bulletin-September, 1927 THE AUTOBIOGKAHPY OF OTTO WIDMANN I have been asked how I got my great love of birds, whether it is inherited or acquired. To this I can answer that my love of nature was inherited and cultivated in early youth, but my great love of birds was acquired in manhood. I do not know much about my mother, because she died when I was only ten years old; but I know that she loved gardening, for I was told that she worked in the garden on the day of the evening I was born during a thunderstorm June 15, 1841. My father was a nature lover and a devoted friend of everything beautiful in God’s creation and as such admired the love- liest of all creatures, the birds, although he did not make a real study of them. He was especially interested in plant life and had collected in his younger y-ears a large herbarium. Being connected with the management of the domains of the state, the grand duchy of Baden, he had opportunity to gather minerals on his tours of inspection and had in the course of time assembled a fine collection. He was a mem- ber of a club which met every evening from 6 to 8. Other members were also friends of animals and plants and when they learned of something unusual, told what they knew or brought specimens to the club, leaving them with those most interested. In this way my father brought home curiosities which made lasting impressions.

  • A Note on Artificial Regeneration of Acacia

    A Note on Artificial Regeneration of Acacia

    The Pakistan Journal of Forestry Vol.63(2), 2013 STATUS AND CONSERVATION OF PHEASANTS IN KAGHAN VALLEY Mian Muhammad Shafiq1 and Muhammad Saqib2 ABSTRACT Pheasants are considered the most beautiful birds in the world. Out of 49 species of pheasant found in the world five species i.e. Monal, (Lophoporus impejanus) koklass (Pucrasia macrolopha), Kalij (Lophura leucomelana), western horned Tragopan (Gragopan melanocephalus) and Cheer (Catreus wallichi) are found in Pakistan while four (4) species i.e. Monal, Koklass, Kalij and Western horned Tragopan are found in the study areas of Kaghan valley. This study was conducted in the Kaghan valley to know the status and conservation of pheasants. A questionnaire was designed and the villages were selected which were located near the reserve forest. A sample of 60 persons were interviewed in detail. The study revealed that the climate and topography of target area provides good habitat to pheasants, but impediments such as illegal hunting, poaching and human interference are the main causes for the decline in population. However declaration of some areas of the Kaghan valley as protected area (National park and wildlife sanctuary) has considerably contributed in the increase of pheasant population. The major earthquake in 2005 in the area had considerably decreased the population of pheasants as well as it has damaged the habitat of pheasants. It is recommended that there should be control on deforestation, habitat improvement and awareness raising campaign should also be carried out. INTRODUCTION Pheasants are the gallinaceous birds with beautiful, brilliant, multicolored and highly ornamental plumage. (Shah, 1987). Within the order Galliformes the pheasants comprise a very huge family with over 16 Genera amongst which there are 49 distinct species and sub species (13 occurring in sub continent) (IUCN, 1998).

Over the last several years, we asked you, our past resident artists and supporters, to share what you love about Watershed and what we could do to improve our facilities, programs, and outreach. You shared wonderful ideas and suggestions through surveys and interviews, and we listened. With your feedback in mind, we completed many renovations and upgrades to campus buildings, overhauled our branding and communication strategies, added a new staff development position, and expanded community education programming. We were able to accomplish these changes because of your support. Your commitment to our mission is producing results—our summer residences are filled to capacity, applications for summer positions and scholarships are more robust than ever, and our community events are enjoying record-breaking attendance. Feedback from artists in 2015 was resoundingly positive—100% of artists-in-residence responding to our survey said they would recommend Watershed to a friend or colleague and would consider participating in another residency.

    Thermoregulatory Role of the Unfeathered Head and Neck in Male Wild Turkeys

    The Auk 113(2):310-318, 1996 THERMOREGULATORY ROLE OF THE UNFEATHERED HEAD AND NECK IN MALE WILD TURKEYS RICHARD BUCHHOLZ • Departmentof Zoology,University of Florida Gainesville,Florida 32611, USA AI•STRACT.--Thebrightly colored,unfeathered heads and necks of male Wild Turkeys (Meleagrisgallopavo) are generallythought to functionin sexualselection. However, studies in other bird specieshave suggestedthat uninsulatedbody regionsmay serve an important role in heat dissipation.I test the heat-dissipationhypothesis in Wild Turkeysby experi- mentally reinsulatingthe headsand necksof Wild Turkeysas though they were feathered. The oxygenconsumption, thermal conductance,cooling capacity, surface temperatures, and core temperatureof control and reinsulatedWild Turkeyswere comparedat 0ø, 22 ø and 35ø(2. Head insulationresulted in significantlyincreased rates of oxygenconsumption, higher body temperatures,and decreasedcooling capacitiesat 35øC,but had no significanteffect at the other temperaturestested. It appearsthat behavioral changesat low temperatures,such as tucking the head under the back feathers,effectively prevent the heat lossthat would oth- erwise be causedby the absenceof feathers.However, if the head were feathere& turkeys at high temperatureswould be unable to dissipatesufficient heat to maintain thermeostasis. Thus,given this finding for Wild Turkeys,it canno longerbe saidthat in all casesbare heads in birds have evolved by sexualselection alone. Lossof head and neck featbering in Wild Turkeysand other birdsmay have allowed thesespecies
