This week the ABA announced their "Bird of the Year," the Evening Grosbeak. I was asked to write a blog post about their current population trends, which was posted on their blog today, here: http://blog.aba.org/2012/03/what-is-happening-to-evening-grosbeaks.html
I don't like to post about my own work on the MOU listserv, but I used the Duluth and state Breeding Bird Survey and Christmas Bird Count data, so this may be of interest to some of you. Best, Laura - Laura Erickson Duluth, MN For the love, understanding, and protection of birds There is symbolic as well as actual beauty in the migration of birds.
