Extractions: Back to services Birds have evolved to utilise almost every habitat in the world, and as such are a very diverse group of animals that are present at most sites. They are particularly vulnerable during the breeding season, when all wild birds are protected. Breeding birds are protected by Section 1 of the Wildlife and Countryside Act (1981, as amended). All birds, their nests and eggs are protected by law and it is thus an offence, with certain exceptions (see below) intentionally to: Different bird species are afforded protection under other legislation including the EU Birds Directive (79/409/EEC) and Bern Convention. Breeding bird surveys are generally undertaken using territory mapping methods during the breeding season, and comprise a number of site visits (6-10) during which all bird species, numbers and activity are recorded. The results are presented as a series of maps. Wintering bird surveys are used to record feeding and roosting bird activity, particularly of large assemblages of birds in key wintering habitats. At least 4 visits are made between September and March.

Stroud Website rbbp.org.uk The Rare Breeding Birds Panel RBBP ) is an ornithological body which collects data on the breeding attempts and successes of the rarer species of birds in the United Kingdom . It was created in 1968 as a subcommittee of the RSPB , with representation from the Nature Conservancy Council (NCC) and British Birds magazine In December 1972 it became an autonomous body, financed jointly by the BTO , RSPB, British Birds and later, the NCC . Its role was given as The aims of the Panel are to collect in one place all information on rare breeding birds so that changes in status—both increases and decreases—can be monitored, and so that essential information is not lost (as has happened in the past) through the deaths of those keeping rare breeding records secret. As of 2009 [update] , the Panel collects data on over 160 species of rare and scarce breeding birds in the UK . These are divided into four categories Category A - Rare Species.

Extractions: (password required) The information on this site is subject to a Breeding Birds Monitoring breeding birds, the JMBB program In addition to the 10-12 million of migratory birds, the Wadden Sea also supports large numbers of breeding birds. For several breeding bird species like eurasian spoonbill, oystercatcher, avocet, kentish plover, common redshank, lesser black-backed gull, gull-billed tern and sandwich tern, the Wadden Sea is among the most important breeding sites in Northwest-Europe. Several species are included in Annex I of the EU-Bird Directive or listed as Species of European Concern (SPEC). At national level, many Wadden Sea breeding birds represent an important share of national breeding bird populations and are listed as Red List species. This website aims to present a regular update of trends in breeding bird numbers, initially for the 31 species that have been monitored from 1991 onwards. Trends, methods, an overview map of census sites and important references about monitoring of breeding birds you can find here as latest version February 2010. Status: February 26, 2010

http://www.seftoncoast.org.uk/articles/99summer_breedingbirds.html

Extractions: Barn Owls Article by Steve White, Lancashire Wildlife Trust The Sefton Coast's international reputation for its huge flocks of wintering wading birds and wildfowl has led to its designation as a Ramsar Site and European Special Protection Area. To avid birdwatchers it's also a place to savour abundance of migrant birds in spring and autumn, including rarities like Britain's first Eleanora's Falcon at Cabin Hill in 1977 and a Sardinian Warbler at Formby in 1992.The Coast's breeding birds, however, have received very little attention. But that's about to change. The Breeding Bird Survey of Lancashire and North Merseyside , organised by the Lancashire Bird Club and carried out by a small army of volunteers, is now almost complete and is due for publication next year.So, for the first time, a complete picture of our breeding birds can be painted. A total of 111 species were located in Sefton as a whole, compared to a 'Lancashire' total of 161. The Coast supports 83 breeding species. None of these are rare nationally but many are significant in the regional context.

http://arabianwildlife.uaeinteract.com/archive/vol1.1/brdbrd.htm

Extractions: A unique project that has been harnessing the enthusiasm and skills of amateur and professional ornithologists throughout Arabia is now entering its tenth year. The Atlas of the Breeding Birds of Arabia project, ABBA for short, was the brain-child of Michael Jennings who has played a key role in running the project, now sponsored by the NCWCD, and in making sense out of all the data. We asked him to tell readers of Arabian Wildlife the background to ABBA and where it is heading from here. A decade ago, if someone had asked me how many birds breed in Arabia, after some research, I could probably have answered "maybe about 180". But for many species I would have only a scanty idea of their status, breeding biology or how common they are in each area. Ten years on with the Atlas of the Breeding Birds of Arabia having been running since 1984, I can answer the question accurately, there are 236 birds known to breed in Arabia (October 1983) and we now have a very good idea of the status of all of them, their habitat, numbers and distribution. The objectives of the ABBA project were to establish which birds breed in Arabia, where, in what numbers, and to collect as much data as possible about breeding biology, habitat and historical changes etc. 1993 represents a milestone for the project as the Interim Atlas has now been completed, presenting the results of all data collected so far. In the longer term the final Atlas will appear and will provide a full review of each of the species breeding in Arabia.

Legend: For each township, filled squares indicate that nests or dependent young were recorded during 1950-1972. Filled triangles indicate that territorial males or pairs were recorded during a breeding season in 1950-1972. Open squares indicate that nests or dependent young were recorded prior to 1950. Open triangles indicate that territorial males or pairs were recorded during a breeding season prior to 1950. The taxonomic treatment in this report follows the AOU Check-list of North American Birds, fifth edition (1957), and the subsequent thirty-second supplement (1973), except as modified by changes proposed by Mayr and Short (1970). The maps shown were created by manually coding the symbols for each species and township, based on the maps in Stewart (1975), and creating new maps from those data. The new maps were checked for errors, but there is a possibility that some errors remain.

Mini Breeding Bird Surveys (MBBS)
Project to collect information about the distribution and abundance of breeding birds in Orange and Chatham Counties.
http://www.unc.edu/~rhwiley/mbbs/

Extractions: Latest update: 20 September 2009 Latest bulletins! A Mini Breeding Bird Survey (MBBS) is a small-scale version of the full Breeding Bird Survey organized each year by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service throughout North America. An MBBS focuses on one county. Volunteers count birds seen or heard along randomly chosen routes on secondary roads. The objective is to determine the distribution of breeding birds in the county and to assess any year-to-year changes in their numbers. MBBS 2009 IS COMPLETE!! and all but one in Durham county. Despite last year's recovery from many all-time lows the year before, 2009 resumed the downward trend for many favorite birds! Two species that, despite the overall recovery, set all-time lows last year, dropped even lower this year Red-eyed Vireo and Wood Thrush. On the bright side, Eastern Bluebirds reached all-time highs in 2009. All of these patterns are approximately the same in all three counties, even for individual species of birds.

Breeding Birds At Sungei Buloh Nature Park
article in back issue of Wetlands a publication of Sungei Buloh Nature Park
http://mangrove.nus.edu.sg/pub/wetlands/text/97-4-1-1.htm

Extractions: The breeding season is the most stressful period for resident birds with courting, nest-building, parenting of eggs and nestling all placing a heavy demand on time and energy. Eggs are particularly vulnerable to predators and the vagaries of the weather. Nests therefore have to provide an insulated environment whilst remaining as inconspicuous as possible. Nests in the Park tend to be either well-concealed or inaccessible. For example, the Olive-backed Sunbird decorates the exterior of its nest with a variety of items to disguise its presence. Nests vary in shapes and sizes; Kingfishers, bee-eaters and woodpeckers use natural cavities in trees or excavate burrows to lay their eggs in. Bulbuls, flycatchers build cup-shaped nests which are often felted with moss and lichen. Prinias and munias construct small balls of dried grass with lateral openings, usually in tall grasses. Tailorbirds stitch large green leaves into tubes in which their tiny cup- shaped nests are placed.

The Arkansas Breeding Bird Atlas
Project to determine the status and distribution of the state s breeding birds.
http://www.uark.edu/misc/kgsmith/abba.html

Extractions: Introduction The Arkansas Audobon Society initiated the Arkansas Breeding Bird Atlas (ABBA) Project in 1994 for the purpose of developing a series of distributional maps for all species of birds that breed within the state. Initial funding of the project came from the Arkansas Game and fish commission, the University of Arkansas, and the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation in Washington, D.C. Data collection began in 1994. Success of this project is dependant upon volunteers for data collection among the 875 total blocks within the state. Methods The sampling unit is a 25km (9 square miles) block that has been randomly selected within each U.S. Geological Survey topographic map in Arkansas. A total of 918 topographic maps cover the entire state of Arkansas, but 43 of these are more than 50% outside the state and were deleted from the project. That leaves a total of 875 blocks to be surveyed state-wide, which is about 12-15 blocks per county. Each volunteer receives an 8.5 by 11 inch copy of a map of a USGS quadrangle map with the location of the block clearly marked, and an 8.5 by 11 inch map of the plot itself. Different classes of road types are shown on the maps, from interstates and state highways to dirt roads, logging roads, and roads on levees. Major bodies of water are shown, as are major rivers and streams. Cities and towns are also labeled.
