At the risk of repeating myself… yes, big gulls can be less than ideal neighbours. Gallagher's narrative is also full of a rich cultural history involving the indigenous people of the Sierra Madres, as well as the Apache inhabitants and the early established Mormon ranchers. The account if how the drug cartels have taken over this wilderness and clear cut it is heart breaking but even scarier and sadder for the numberless Mexicans who are killed in the process.

Tim Gallagher on the Imperial Woodpecker. It is as if Imperial Dreams just worked off of a checklist to make sure it got all of the stereotypical inner city characters before sending the film off for post-production. Instead he delivers a moralistic story that's pure in its intention and a real slog to watch. A hormone in the eggs triggered the female to stop making stomach acid; her stomach, in effect, became a womb. Hunting is not the only threat that would face recovered species.

But they were entirely novel to me, and I was hugely excited to encounter them in the wild. And yet for Greely, as for many others, the very fact that science has advanced to the point that such a spectacular feat is possible is a compelling reason to embrace de-extinction, not to shun Imperial Dreams Tracking the Imperial Woodpecker Through the Wild 1st edition. To find out if the rumors could possibly be true, author Tim Gallagher set out on a harrowing journey through the high country of the Sierra Madre, a vast, lawless region—now the epicenter of illegal drug growing in Mexico. He is currently editor-in-chief of Living Bird, the flagship publication of the Cornell Lab of Ornithology. All appeared to belong to the same species, one with a warm brown mantle, grey crown and nape, black wing feathers but for a small, white, rectangular panel on the primaries, and long tail that was dark on its upper surface.

In this remote region of Mexico yet to see the modern convenience of electricity and telephones, Tim follows a trail laid out by word-of-mouth stories, testimonies, legends, and fading memories in search of this incredible bird.

    Cotinga 32 The current status of Sinaloa Martin Progne sinaloae Nicholas A. Lethaby and Jon R. King Received 24 February 2009; final revision accepted 13 November 2009 first published online 16 March 2010 Cotinga 32 (2010): 90–95 La Golondrina de Sinaloa Progne sinaloae es una especie categorizada como Datos Deficientes y endémica reproductiva de la Sierra Madre Occidental y las montañas Volcánicas Centrales de México. Sus áreas de invernada son desconocidas. A pesar de que su estado es descrito como poco común a relativamente común, no hay localidades donde la especie sea vista regularmente o en números significativos. Históricamente, los registros han sido de colonias reproductivas de 15–30 aves o más; pero los registros acumulados por los autores a lo largo de las últimas dos décadas han sido en su mayoría de migrantes en las tierras bajas, sin registros reproductivos definitivos excepto por una colonia recientemente descubierta de solo 2–6 individuos en Sinaloa. La Golondrina de Sinaloa es inherentemente conspicua y los machos son fáciles de identificar, por lo que es una especie difícil de pasar desapercibida. Parece ser poco común y altamente local en el mejor de los casos, y posiblemente muy rara. Monitoreos formales deberían ser desarrollados para evaluar con precisión el actual estado de conservación de la especie y sus tendencias poblacionales.

  • Responses of Woodpeckers to Selective Logging and Forest Fragmentation in Kalimantan – Preliminary Data
    The Balance between Biodiversity Conservation and Sustainable Use of Tropical Rain Forests RESPONSES OF WOODPECKERS TO SELECTIVE LOGGING AND FOREST FRAGMENTATION IN KALIMANTAN – PRELIMINARY DATA Martjan (J.M.) Lammertink ABSTRACT Woodpecker diversity, densities and foraging ecology are being studied in primary forests, logged landscapes (with primary and logged patches) and small forest fragments in West Kalimantan. Woodpecker species richness does not differ between primary forest and logged landscapes, but is lower in small forest fragments. Densities of woodpeckers in primary and logged landscapes do not differ significantly, although differences may become significant when more replica study sites of forest types have been established. Average densities over three primary and three logged sites are lower in logged landscapes for nine out of 13 woodpecker species. Within logged landscapes, eight out of nine woodpecker species are more abundant in primary patches than in logged patches. This preference for primary patches is significant for the Checker-throated Woodpecker Picus mentalis. The Checker-throated Woodpecker is a highly mobile forager of the lower storeys and its density is negatively correlated with the volume of dense foliage between heights of 0 and 15 m. Reduced impact logging should aim to avoid the creation of a dense understorey and to retain moist dead trees under the forest canopy. Primary lowland forest, which is important for conservation, science and tourism, has nearly disappeared in Kalimantan. Laws to protect primary forest reserves should be enforced more effectively. INTRODUCTION Woodpeckers form a nearly cosmopolitan bird family, comprising about 230 species. All woodpeckers share unique characteristics, such as a bill and skull structure specialised for pecking, stiff tail feathers, climbing feet and a long extendable tongue.

Recovery plans delineate such reasonable actions as may be necessary, based upon the best scientific and commercial data available, for the conservation and survival of listed species. Plans are published by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS), sometimes prepared with the assistance of recovery teams, contractors, State agencies and others. Recovery plans do not necessarily represent the views, official positions, or approval of any individuals or agencies involved in the plan formulation, other than USFWS. They represent the official position of the USFWS only after they have been signed by the Regional Director. Recovery plans are guidance and planning documents only; identification of an action to be implemented by any public or private party does not create a legal obligation beyond existing legal requirements. Nothing in this plan should be construed as a commitment or requirement that any Federal agency obligate or pay funds in any one fiscal year in excess of appropriations made by Congress for that fiscal year in contravention of the Anti-Deficiency Act, 31 U.S.C.

  • Detailed Species Account from the Threatened Birds of the Americas
    THICK-BILLED PARROT Rhynchopsitta pachyrhyncha V9 Now endemic to the pine forests of the Sierra Madre Occidental in Mexico, this parrot formerly ranged into and probably bred in the U.S.A. and has done so recently owing to a major and ingenious reintroduction project. Extensive deforestation has occurred throughout its Mexican range, none of which enjoys protection. Because it is nomadic in response to variations in cone abundance, it requires the preservation of substantial areas of pine in different parts of its range if it is to be secure. DISTRIBUTION The Thick-billed Parrot ranges through the Sierra Madre Occidental of north-west Mexico principally in the states of Chihuahua and Durango (the only states for which breeding has been proved), with smaller or occasional populations in Sonora, Sinaloa, Jalisco and Michoacán and, formerly, in the the U.S.A. in the states of Arizona and New Mexico; the species is now being reintroduced to Arizona, and has bred there. Mexico In the following text, records are arranged approximately from north-west to south-east, with coordinates taken from OG (1956a) and indicating the approximate locations of certain sites only otherwise to be found on the map in Lanning and Shiflett (1983). Sonora Records are all from the mountainous north-east region in: the Sierra de Madera, 30°20’N 108°52’W, an extension of the Sierra de Nácori, present by reliable local report made in 1931 (Scheffler 1931; hence van Rossem 1945); the Sierra Huachinera, 30°16’N 108°45’W, Sierra de Oposura, 29°55’N 109°29’W, and Sierra de Nácori (not listed in OG 1956a), all in the 1950s (Marshall 1957, from whose map the last-named is roughly at 29°50’N 108°45’W).
