New Bird Resource from NH Audubon

[Pamela Hunt]

Greetings birders,

 

Back in the fall NH Audubon released a new web version of our “State of New Hampshire’s Birds” report. This contained the same information as the printed report from 2021 but in a format that allowed for much easier navigation between sections. We are pleased to announce that the second phase of this project went live last week: a set of  “species profiles” that will eventually cover all the species that regularly occur in New Hampshire (there are 210 there now). Each profile includes one or more photos, a sidebar summarizing conservation information, a NH range map and seasonal abundance graph, and a narrative highlighting various aspects of that species’ ecology or conservation (sometimes with a NH perspective). Most also have a trend graph. You can find this resource at https://stateofthebirds.nhaudubon.org/birds-a-z/. More birds will be added over the next few months as time allows.

 

I hope these profiles prove useful to anyone curious about the status of our state’s birds and interested in fun ecological stories about them.

 

Good birding,

Pam
