Management Recommendations for Washington's Priority Species Volume IV: Birds

Management Recommendations for Washington's Priority Species, Volume IV: Birds is the third published volume in a series containing species management recommendations, and includes most birds on the Priority Habitats and Species (PHS) List. Each species account within this volume provides information on the bird's geographic distribution and the rationale for its inclusion on the PHS List. The habitat requirements and limiting factors for each species are discussed, and management recommendations addressing the issues in these sections are based on the best available science. Each species document includes a bibliography of the literature used for its development, and each has a key points section that summarizes the habitat requirements and management recommendations for the species.
