DOWNLOAD EBOOK →The Second Atlas of Breeding Birds in West Virginia is the most comprehensive description of bird life in the Mountain State ever published. Building on the first Atlas, published in 1994, this book documents the occurrence of 170 species of breeding birds, including three new species and one whose last breeding record was in 1888. Compiled from the efforts of almost two hundred volunteers, who worked from 2009 to 2014 to amass more than one hundred thousand records and conduct point-count surveys, the Atlas presents detailed information about each species and two hybrids. Species accounts are accompanied by maps that show breeding evidence, as well as estimates of occurrence, change in occurrence, and population density. The volume covers state geography, climate, and changing habitats. It includes both a discussion of conservation concerns important to the state's breeding birds and a history of state ornithology and changes in West Virginia's avifauna drawn from observations and research from the nineteenth through the twenty-first century. Featuring up-to-date information about 170 bird species and hundreds of beautiful color photographs--nearly all of which are identified by county locations--The Second Atlas of Breeding Birds in West Virginia is an indispensable resource for researchers, conservationists, and birders.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Excerpt from The Breeding Birds of Pennsylvania: Thesis for the Degree of Master of Science in Biology, 1913 The only lake of importance is Lake Erie, forming the northwest boundary for about fifty miles. On the east - ern border, the Delaware River flows south and empties into the Delaware Bay, being joined by the Schuylkill below Philadelphia and at Easton by the Lehigh; each tributary is about one hundred miles in length. Farther inland the Susquehanna, the largest river in the state, enters Pennsylvania from New York and, flowing southerly, crosses the entire state, dividing it into two unequal parts. Its principal tributaries are the West Branch and luniata from the west and the Swatara and Conestoga from the east. The Ohio, which is formed by the union of the Alleghany from the north and the Monongahela from the south, drains the western part of the state, having about fifty miles of its course in Pennsylvania. The Alleghany extends to the north for three hundred miles, while the Monongahela stretches away for two hundred miles.
