Monitoring the potential impact of a wind development site on bats in the northeast
Article Abstract:
The acoustic monitoring and mist net capture techniques were used to investigate the possible risk of mortality among the resident and migratory bat populations due to the future wind power development at the Maple Ridge Wind Project Site in New York, USA, during the spring migratory season and summer reproductive season. It was observed that the bat flew near the tree canopy and quite below the turbine heights and migratory behavior is more on warmer days with lower wind speeds during the spring migratory season.

Postfledging survival and development of juvenile lilac-crowned parrots
Article Abstract:
The survival and development of juvenile lilac-crowned parrot (Amazona finschi) fledgling during their first year after leaving the nest are determined. Overall first year survival was found to be 73% with all mortalities occurred within 3 weeks of fledging and highest mortality in the first week postfledging, and survival was found to vary between years, thus influencing recruitment of independent young in the population.

Tree selection and landscape analysis of eastern red bat day roosts
Article Abstract:
Univariate and multivariate comparisons are used to test roost tree variable selection of eastern red bats with random tree data at 3 circular spatial scales, namely, roost tree, plant and landscape. Red bats were found to roost in deciduous trees in areas near trails, with greater canopy closure, lower groundcover.
