Our strategy stands upon three transformative outcomes: conservation, engagement, and capacity. Conservation will be achieved by preventing raptor extinctions, protecting areas of high raptor conservation value, and addressing landscape-level threats impacting multiple species. Engagement will be reached by inspiring people to value raptors and take action, serving as a catalyst for change, and investing in tomorrow’s conservation leaders. Capacity outcomes are centered on The Peregrine Fund’s capacity to apply our core values, promise, and guiding principles to complex conservation challenges. Capacity will be built by assembling the infrastructure, facilities and people, and raising sufficient funds to execute the actions needed to reach measurable, time-bound goals on an iterative five-year planning cycle. In the first year of our five-year plan we will focus on building our organizational capacity for raising funds, building facilities, and creating science-based decision tools. In five years we will have modernized and expanded our headquarters in Boise, created and implemented a data driven global raptor assessment program, and built our endowment to fund these support services in perpetuity. With these resources in progress, in the second and following years we will focus on new and expanded conservation projects around the world that optimize return on investment by addressing the greatest conservation benefits for raptors worldwide. In five years we will have developed scientifically defensible priorities for endangered species conservation, prioritized places of conservation value to raptors, and selected the greatest threats to raptors at the landscape level to confront. Two new conservation programs and a major engagement initiative will be in progress, providing vital feedback for strategic decisions on funding, impact, and return on investment: 4 The Peregrine Fund Executive Summary Strategic Plan, 2017 Darien Productive Landscape Project to conserve one of Earth’s most valuable and intact tropical forest blocks at the nexus between Central and South American biodiversity where the Harpy Eagle and Orange-breasted Falcon are sentinels of healthy ecosystem structure and function. North American Non-lead Program to end lead poisoning of California Condors, Bald Eagles, Golden Eagles and other avian and mammalian scavengers from the remains of spent lead ammunition used to harvest or kill animals that are left in the field for wildlife to consume. Global Engagement Program to connect with people locally and globally to inspire them to value raptors, take action and be the catalyst for change that conserves raptors and other biodiversity. Our mission is to conserve birds of prey worldwide. By conserving birds of prey worldwide we promise to change the future to benefit nature and humanity. Our promise is bold and we are optimistic. Our past successes are demonstrable evidence for our future accomplishments. Failure—is not an option. 5 The Peregrine Fund Acknowledgments Strategic Plan, 2017 Acknowledgments Collectively, many thousands of hours have contributed to developing, documenting, writing, reviewing and editing this plan.

  • Raptor Nest Survey Summary Report
    Raptor Nest Survey Summary Report Lot 5 UBC South Campus January 6, 2020 Submitted to: Polygon Homes Ltd. Raptor Nest Survey Summary Report 1.0 Introduction 1.1 Project Background Diamond Head Consulting Ltd. (DHC) was retained to conduct a raptor nest survey for the proposed development of Lot 5 into a parkade at the University of British Columbia (UBC) South Campus. The development requires the removal of all trees from an existing natural area. As part of this project, on‐ site tree planting is planned upon completion of the parkade. A nest survey is required prior to construction activity to ensure compliance with the federal Migratory Birds Convention Act [1994] and attendant Migratory Birds Regulation [1994] that protects migratory birds, their eggs, and nests. Also, Section 34(a), (b), and (c) of the provincial Wildlife Act [1996 chap 488] prohibits the taking of birds, eggs, and nests. Nests of eagle, peregrine falcon, gyrfalcon, osprey, heron, and burrowing owl are specifically protected whether or not they are active. 1.2 Site Description The project site is a second growth forested area south of W 16th Ave and east of SW Marine Dr, on the corner of Berton Ave and Binning Rd within the UBC South Campus (Figure 1). The nest survey was conducted within the project site and in the forested area immediately adjacent to the north and east. Figure 1 – Project location, UBC South Campus Lot 5, Vancouver, B.C. 3559 Commercial Street, Vancouver B.C. V5N 4E8 | T 604‐733‐4886 1 Raptor Nest Survey Summary Report The project site and adjacent natural areas are a native second growth forest stand mainly consisting of Western Red Cedar (Thuja plicata), Western Hemlock (Tsuga heterophylla), Douglas Fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii), and Bigleaf Maple (Acer macrophyllum).

Investigated methods of launching nets, powered by black powder, detonators, elastic, and compressed air, and a walk-in trap. The last proved most effective at capturing birds, needed no licence, but took a long time to construct and of course was barely portable. (email for Monadjem: [email protected]) BIRD, J.

Our aim has been twofold: (1) to study sub-epidermical adaptations for blood circulation in two flushing species: the crested caracara (Polyborus plancus) and the hooded vulture (Necrosyrtes monachus), and (2) to provide the first compilation of avian species with flushing skin. The bare facial skin of both the caracara and the hooded vulture contains a highly vascularised tissue under the epidermis that may be filled with blood and would thus produce red skin colours. In contrast, feathered areas of the head show very few vessels immersed in connective tissue and have no potential for colour changes. Species with flushing colours are few but phylogenetically diverse, as they belong to 12 different avian orders and at least 20 families. The majority are dark-coloured, large-sized species living in hot environments that may have originally evolved highly vascularised skin patches for thermoregulation.
