12 Conservation science Birds are a barometer of the health of the habitat. Data about birds help Cleveland Metroparks conserve habitat. Citizen scientists (volunteers) make a difference in conservation.
13 Methodology We assessed the diversity and abundance of forest breeding birds over a five-year period, We surveyed 65 points each year, 3 times for 10 ten minutes from May-June.
14
15 Finding and marking points Mary Anne Romito
16 Training and testing for the surveys
17 Surveying the points
18 Here are our results! We counted 93 species of birds. Following are the top ten species of birds we found not statistically significant, just raw numbers.
19 Rocky River IBA Survey: American Robin
20 Rocky River IBA Survey: Red-eyed Vireo
21 Rocky River IBA Survey: American Cardinal
22 Rocky River IBA Survey: Blue Jay
23 Rocky River IBA Survey: Black-capped Chickadee
24 Rocky River IBA Survey: Red-bellied Woodpecker
25 Rocky River IBA Survey: Wood Thrush
26 Rocky River IBA Survey: Downy Woodpecker
27 Rocky River IBA Survey: Eastern Wood Pewee
28 Rocky River IBA Survey: American Goldfinch
29 Our first key finding: The importance of large, unbroken blocks of forest
30 Another perspective on this finding: Variability of sightings among point counts Year Reservation 2006 Hinckley Mill Stream Rocky River Hinckley Mill Stream Rocky River Hinckley Mill Stream Rocky River Mean Std Dev Minimum Maximum
31 Here s a good example!
32 Rocky River IBA Survey: Hooded Warbler
33 Notes about Hooded Warblers Scott Rush studied HOWA survival in small & large forests in PA in BHCO parasitized more HOWA nests in small versus large forest fragments. HOWA fledgling survival rate was higher in large forest fragments.
34 The vegetation component C.H. Warren
35 Forest patch metrics Four variables: Forbs Woody stems Canopy cover Canopy height
36 Our second key finding Lower vegetation structure supports a diverse population of bird species. Cleveland Metroparks has initiated projects that support this finding.
37 Forest regeneration in CMP CMP has created canopy gaps by cutting ashes injured by Emerald Ash Borers. Plantings of white oaks, sycamores, beaches, and shrubs are replacing ashes. CMP forests are so small that creating gaps will not promote BHCO parasitism.
38 Restoring the forest
39 Our first outcome We mobilized citizens who made a difference in conservation. This was the volunteer component.
40 The volunteer component 100 people volunteered during the five-year IBA survey in the following tasks: Observers Public speaking Recorders Hospitality Point-finding Board members Data entry Data analysis Veg surveyors Fund-raising
41 Here s how we found our volunteers! Strategic planning
42 Classroom orientations
43 Open houses
44 Outdoor certification
45 Family activities
46 Our second outcome We generated data that Cleveland Metroparks is using to obtain grants to buy property in the Rocky River watershed. This is why we did the survey!
47 Rocky River Reservation Mill Stream Run Reservation
48 Hinckley Reservation
49 Effects of forest fragmentation 3 effects: regional, landscape, local. Farms, development promote BHCOs. BHCO abundance greatest in landscapes with high fragmentation. >70% forest cover best for birds. Success best in contiguous forests.
50 It wasn t just another bird walk!
