Description
The willow flycatcher inhabits shrub habitats in in many parts of North America, including the foothills of the Rocky Mountains of Alberta. In 2002, the Alberta Endangered Species Conservation Committee declared that there was insufficient information on the species to determine an official risk status for the province. The purpose of this study was to help clarify the status of the willow flycatcher in Alberta by compiling all reliable historical records of the species in the province developing a model to identify potential breeding habitat and conducting field surveys to document occupancy of historical sites and of sites identified by the model as being suitable for breeding by willow flycatchers.
