Restoring Tallgrass Prairie and Grassland Bird Populations in Tall Fescue Pastures With Winter Grazing
Restoration of grasslands dominated by tall fescue (Schedonorus phoenix [Scop.] Holub) to native tallgrass prairie usually requires burning, herbicides, or reseeding. We tested seasonal grazing by livestock in winter, combined with cessation of fertilization, as a restoration tool for modifying the competitive dynamics among herbaceous plants to restore tallgrass prairie communities in southeas...
متن کاملEurope’s bird populations in decline
Common birds: A study of bird populations in Europe found the most dramatic declines among common species such as the house sparrow (left) and starling. (Photo: Tomas Belka, birdphoto.eu.) From the sparrows picking our breadcrumbs from the ground to the swifts nesting in the tower, from the dawn chorus to the hoots of night-time hunters, birds are the most visible and audible group of wildlife ...
متن کاملCold temperature increases winter fruit removal rate of a bird -
We tested the hypothesis that winter removal rates of h i t s of wax myrtle, ~Vfjricu cerifern, are higher in colder winters. Over a 9-year period, we monitored M. cerifkru fruit crops in 13 0.1-ha study plots in South Carolina, U.S.A. Peak ripeness occurred in November, whereas peak removal occurred in the coldest months, December and January. Mean time to fruit removal within study plots was ...
متن کاملQuantifying difference in vocalizations of bird populations
Populations of a bird species can evolve over time to become a new species. While plumage patterns and other morphological information can remain constant, the vocalizations of a given population may have diversified enough to warrant reclassification. Thus ornithologists are interested in how to measure call and song similarity in birds in a systematic, repeatable manner. Given the success of ...
متن کاملFood Preferences of Winter Bird Communities in Different Forest Types
Food availability for forest birds is a function of habitat type, forest management regime, and season. In winter, it is also impacted by variations in the weather. In the current study we assessed the food preferences of wild bird populations in two types of forest (spruce and beech) during the months of November 2010 to April 2011 in the Schwäbische Alb Biodiversity Exploratory, south-western...
