Bird Lists
So far we have just two bird lists.
1- The Manitou Island Master Bird List Just as it sounds, this is the list of all species we've observed at Manitou during our six years of study.
2- Manitou island Breeding Bird List This list is compiled using the standards of the Michigan Breeding Bird Atlas and has three levels of certainty of breeding: Possible , Probable and Confirmed. There is an annotated bird list in the MDNR Non-Game grant report for 2002.
That report can be downloaded through the Reports Page of this website. The Manitou Breeding Bird List found on this page does differ somewhat from the Breeding Bird List found in the 2002 Report for the MDNR. I've reconsidered and rejected some of the Possible breeders found on the list in the Report for the MDNR. If anyone needs an explanation please feel free to contact me.
