Survey of the loggerhead shrike in the southern Aspen Parkland Region, 2000-2001

Description

Populations of the loggerhead shrike have declined markedly in many areas of North America in recent years. In Alberta, the species is now absent from much of the central aspen parkland, and is considered to be a Species of Special Concern in the province. In the central areas of the province, populations are now so low and sparsely distributed that monitoring techniques used in other areas of the province are not effective. In 2000 and 2001, an intensive search for loggerhead shrikes was conducted along the southern boundary of the central aspen parkland to help define the status and breeding locations of the species in this area. Shrikes were found at 61 unique locations over the two years.
