Notes on the Hoary Redpoll on its central Canadian Arctic breeding grounds
Arctic Redpoll (Carduelis hornemanni) Science Article 1 abstract G. Ron Austing and I made the following observations of the Hoary Redpoll (Acanthis hornemanni) during the period of 30 June to 15 July 1972 while photographing birds around Bathurst Inlet Lodge at the mouth of the Burnside River on Bathurst Inlet (66′ 50′ N., 108′ 02′ […]
Taxonomy and evolution in Redpolls Carduelis flammea hornemanni a multivariate study of their biometry.
Arctic Redpoll (Carduelis hornemanni) Science Article 2 abstract Multivariate analyses were performed on four standard measurements (wing-chord, tail-length, bill-length and bill-depth) of over 1000 sexed Redpolls, including samples from all currently recognized taxa. Samples of flammea and exilipes, phenotypically defined by colour were separable biometrically, as were samples of rostrata and hornemanni. Dark Redpolls from […]

Monitoring Aquatic Warbler Acrocephaluspaludicola in Poland
Aquatic Warbler (Acrocephalus paludicola) Science Article 1 abstract As a globally threatened species, the Aquatic Warbler requires a monitoring programme forpopulation trends to be tracked. Such a programme should consider the timing of censuses toachieve precise assessments of the number of the singing males within the limited singing period.We compare results of whole-population counts conducted […]
The African migration and winteringgrounds of the Aquatic WarblerAcrocephalus paludicola
Aquatic Warbler (Acrocephalus paludicola) Science Article 2 abstract There is a clear need for protection of the migration and wintering grounds of the GloballyThreatened Aquatic Warbler Acrocephalus paludicola, but little is known about them andthe threats they face. To narrow this gap, a desk study was performed between May 1998 andOctober 2004. Information on known […]
