Austin, TX University of Texas Press, 2002. Paperback First Ed, so stated. First Ed, so stated. Fine in Wraps: binding square and secure; text clean. Virtually 'As New'. NOT a Remainder, Book-Club, or Ex-Library. 8vo. 256pp. Paperback: Pictorial Wraps. This work is an excellent primer on the problems facing avian species in North America, as well as providing a timely update for those who already understand the issues. The introductory chapter focuses on the sources of the data which first brought attention to these issues, and cogently dissects the lack of clarity in the sound-bite term "neotropical migrant". Causes of declines in migrant bird populations are discussed, including habitat loss, habitat fragmentation, wintering ecology etc. It is gratifying to see that the author recognizes that some grassland birds are exhibiting the most severe population declines, even though these species are not as colorful and "sexy" as the woodland warblers which garner most of the…

Description:
University of Texas Press, 2002. Paperback. New. In the 1980s, numerous scientific surveys documented both declining bird populations, especially among Neotropical songbirds that winter in the tropics, and the loss of tropical rain forest habitat. Drawing the seemingly obvious conclusion, scientists and environmental activists linked songbird declines to loss of tropical habitats and alerted the world to an impending ecological catastrophe. Their warnings led to the establishment of the Neotropical Migratory Bird Conservation Program, also known as Partners in Flight, the self-proclaimed largest conservation effort in history. Looking back over more than a decade of efforts to save migrant birds, John Faaborg offers the first serious evaluation of the state of songbird populations today, the effectiveness of conservation programs such as Partners in Flight, and the reliability and completeness of scientific research on migrant birds. Taking neither an alarmist nor a complacent approach, he shows…
