  • Influence of Cavity Availability on Red-Cockaded Woodpecker Group Size
    Wilson Bulletin, 110(l), 1998, pp. 93-99 INFLUENCE OF CAVITY AVAILABILITY ON RED-COCKADED WOODPECKER GROUP SIZE N. ROSS CARRIE,,*‘ KENNETH R. MOORE, ’ STEPHANIE A. STEPHENS, ’ AND ERIC L. KEITH ’ ABSTRACT-The availability of cavities can determine whether territories are occupied by Red-cockaded Woodpeckers (Picoides borealis). However, there is no information on whether the number of cavities can influence group size and population stability. We compared group size between 1993 and 1995 in 33 occupied cluster sites that were provisioned with artificial cavities. The number of groups with breeding pairs increased from 22 (67.7%) in 1993 to 28 (93.3%) in 1995. Most breeding males remained in the natural cavities that they had excavated and occupied prior to cavity provisioning in the cluster while breeding females and helpers used artificial cavities extensively. Active cluster sites provisioned with artificial cavities had larger social groups in 1995 (3 = 2.70, SD = 1.42) than in 1993 (3 = 2.00, SD = 0.94; Z = -2.97, P = 0.003). The number of suitable cavities per cluster was positively correlated with the number of birds per cluster (rJ = 0.42, P = 0.016). The number of inserts per cluster was positively correlated with the change in group size between 1993 and 1995 (r, = 0.49, P = 0.004). Our observations indicate that three or four suitable cavities should be maintained uer cluster to stabilize and/or increase Red-cockaded Woodpecker populations. Received 3 March 1997, accepted 57 Oct. 1997. The Red-cockaded Woodpecker (Picoides numbers of old-growth trees for cavity exca- borealis) is an endangered species endemic to vation.

  • St. Augustine Under Three Flags
    SOUVENIR ST.AUGUSTINE UNDER THREE FLAGS PICTORIAL HISTORY OF Pub. by W. J. Harris Company, under the Auspices of the Historical Society—St. Augustine, Fla. Copyright 1925 . PREFACE In this work we have attempted a brief summary of the important events connected with the history of St. Augus- tine and in so doing we must necessarily present the more important facts connected with the history of Fort Marion. The facts and dates contained herein are in accordance with the best authority obtainable. The Historical Society has a large collection of rare maps and books in its Library, one of the best in the State ; the Public Library has also many books on the history of Florida. The City and County records (in English) dating from 1821 contain valuable items of history, as at this date St. Johns County comprised the whole state of Florida east of the Suwannee River and south of Cow's Ford, now the City of Jacksonville. The Spanish records, with a few exceptions, are now in the city of Tallahassee, Department of Agriculture ; the Manuscript Department, Library of Congress, Washington. D. C. and among the "Papeles de Cuba" Seville, Spain. Copies of some very old letters of the Spanish Governors. with English translations, have been obtained by the Historical Society. The Cathedral Archives date from 1594 to the present day. To the late Dr. DeWitt Webb, founder, and until his death, President of the St. Augustine Institute of Science and Historical Society, is due credit for the large number of maps and rare books collected for the Society; the marking and preservation of many historical places ; and for data used in this book.

    FALL 2018 EYE ON PRIVACY How views of public and private life have shifted in America I r . ::J. 1,000 WORDS ‘WE REMEMBER’ ~• John Pregulman, BA’80, has spent the past fve years taking photographs ... of Holocaust survivors. To date, he has photographed 679 survivors in 33 cities in the U.S., as well as in Krakow, Prague and Tokyo. In his Denver ofce, where he is managing partner of real estate company Robmer Partners, ►• the survivors’ photos seem to watch over him. But it is Pregulman and his t,J wife, Amy Israel Pregulman, who look out for these elders. They discovered ,, through the photo project that 30 to 35 percent of the 100,000 Holocaust • survivors in the U.S. live in poverty. “They have a lot of trauma about being recognized and asking for help,” Amy says. The Pregulmans founded a " nonproft, KAVOD—Hebrew for “dignity”—to give emergency, confdential fnancial assistance to survivors who are identifed by Jewish Family Service ofces across the U.S. Through KAVOD and the photography project, they hope that Holocaust survivors will continue to be remembered. “Their biggest fear is that they and their stories will be forgotten,” says John.
