1 CHECKLIST BIRDS OF NORTHEASTERN NEVADA Sandhill Crane The Nevada Division of Wildlife is divided into three administrative regions. The Eastern Region, situated in the northeastern third of Nevada, is composed of many different topographic and vegetative zones. Elevations range from 4,200 feet in the lower valleys to over 13,000 feet on Mt. Wheeler in the South Snake Range. Habitat types that are preferred by each species and the areas where birds are most likely to be observed are included in most field guides to bird identification. The following list contains 264 species of birds that may be observed within the Eastern Region. Accidental occurrence of species that do not normally occur are presented at the end of the list. All birds in Nevada are protected by Federal and/or State law with the exception of the European starling, rock dove and house sparrow. The following legend describes the relative abundance of a species in preferred habitat and the season(s) that the species is usually present. A blank space denotes a season that the species is usually not found within the region.
2 a=abundant...numerous individuals of the species can usually be observed in preferred habitat. c=common...a representative of the species can usually be observed in preferred habitat. u=uncommon...a species representative is usually difficult to locate in preferred habitat. r=rare...a species representative is only infrequently found in preferred habitat. Sp=Spring...March May. Su=Summer...June August. F=Fall...September November. W=Winter...December February. This bird list was compiled from field observations by Nevada Division of Wildlife biologists and available literature. Literature that aided in defining occurrence and relative abundance included: The Birds of Nevada by J.R. Alcorn; Check-List of Birds of Nevada and Birds of the Great Basin by Fred Ryser, Ph.D., University of Nevada, Reno; Field Guide to the Birds of North America, National Geographic Society; Great Basin Birds, Great Basin Bird Observatory; Roger Tory Peterson s Field Guide to Western Birds; and Birds of North America by Robbins, Brunn, Zim, and Singer. The common names used in this checklist are consistent with those presented in The American Ornithologists Union, 1998, Check-list of North American Birds, 7th edition. It is intended that this list, in conjunction with a bird identification guide, will increase your awareness and appreciation of Nevada s avian wildlife.
