They discussed a four pillar IPM approach to wildlife management both in packshed areas and in fields, and talked about balancing the competing interests of supporting wildlife habitat while keeping animals out of the field

In migratory birds, these factors may even occur in different hemispheres. Therefore, identifying the distribution of populations throughout their annual cycle (i.e., migratory connectivity) can reveal the complex ecological and evolutionary relationships that link species and ecosystems across the globe and illuminate where and how limiting factors influence population trends. A growing body of literature continues to identify species that exhibit weak connectivity wherein individuals from distinct breeding areas co-occur during the nonbreeding period. A detailed account of a broadly distributed species exhibiting strong migratory connectivity in which nonbreeding isolation of populations is associated with differential population trends remains undescribed. Here, we present a range-wide assessment of the nonbreeding distribution and migratory connectivity of...

Although there is usually meticulous effort to precisely and consistently measure habitat characteristics, accuracy of methods for estimating which areas are used versus which are unused by birds remains generally untested. To examine accuracy of spot-mapping to identify singing territories of golden-winged warblers (Vermivora chrysoptera), which are considered an early successional forest specialists, we used spot-mapping and radiotelemetry to record song perches and delineate song territories for breeding male golden-winged warblers in northwestern Minnesota, USA. We also used radiotelemetry to record locations (song and nonsong perches) of a subsample (n ¼ 12) of males throughout the day to delineate home ranges. We found that telemetry-based estimates of song territories were 3 times larger and included more mature forest than those estimated from spot-mapping. In addition, home ranges estimated using radiotelemetry included more mature forest than spot-mapping- and telemetry-based song territories, with 75% of afternoon perches located in mature forest. Our results suggest that mature forest comprises a larger component of golden-winged warbler song territories and home ranges than is indicated based on spot-mapping in Minnesota. Because it appears that standard observational methods can underestimate territory size and misidentify cover-type associations for golden-winged warblers, we caution that management and conservation plans may be misinformed, and that similar studies are needed for golden-winged warblers across their range and for other songbird species.

During Phase I, conducted Spring of 1996, we used Oregon ED-NET (a simulcast satellite education system) to reach 143 students at 14 sites in Oregon. In the second phase, we offered the course nation-wide in a video format Spring term 1997 and enrolled 92 students at 13 sites. We will offer the video course again during Winter term 1998 following an expanded marketing plan. Our objectives in this paper are to present (1) course design and production information; (2) our experiences with satellite and video teaching; and (3) present information regarding student perceptions and satisfaction with the two distance delivery methods. In Phase I we used notebooks, computer discussion groups, two-way audio, and toll-free phone access to assist students in comprehending the materials. Lectures used computer-graphic screen shows, slides, and locally produced video segments. Based o...

I observed mostly birds with fewer observations of mammals. Belted Kingfishers (Ceryle alcyon), American Dippers (Cinclus mexicanus), Great Blue Herons (Ardea herodias), and Mallards (Anus plalyrhynchos) comprised >85% of these observations, but no one species was abundant. Abundance of each species was affected by stream order, basin, and season, but to varying degrees. Dippers and kingfishers selected channel unit habitats disproportionately to their availability. Key habitat components that were predictive of use were species specific. Riparian forests and streamside trees were important predictors of use by the three most abundant species; dippers, kingfishers, and herons. Second, I studied nest-site selection of dippers. Dippers selected nest sites based primarily on micro-habitat characteristics. Reproductive success was high and not associated with any habitat or parental foraging behavior. Suitable nest sites provided a physical space to place the nest, were above the upper flood line and inaccessible to ground predators, and were very near or extended over the stream's edge. Within the context of mountain streams, dippers exhibited flexibility in their nest-site selection. Dippers used experimentally-created nest sites, doubling the population on a 10-km reach. Dipper populations appeared to be limited by the availability of suitable nest sites. Third, I studied foraging ecology of dippers by observing prey delivered to nestlings. Dippers fed nestlings a variety of invertebrate and vertebrate prey. Prey was mostly aquatic and composed primarily of mayflies, stoneflies, caddisflies, fish, and adult insects. Younger chicks were fed smaller prey and more mayflies than older chicks. Older chicks were fed larger prey and more caddisflies and fish than younger chicks. Mayflies, stoneflies, and fish were fed more often to nestlings during the first than the second brood-rearing seasons. The caloric content of prey delivered by males and females was similar. However, males delivered more, smaller prey items than females, and this was most pronounced when the females were brooding young chicks.
