| Abstract/Contents: | Presents a study with the following objectives: "1. Evaluate the possible role of golf courses in mitigating the loss of riparian habitats for resident and migratory birds. 2. Determine how the type and distribution of vegetation on golf courses may influence its value as habitat for resident and migratory birds." This three year study began in 2000. |

| USGA Summary Points: | Field studies were recently initiated in July, 2000, on five golf courses and five control areas in the Albuquerque, New Mexico, area to determine their role in mitigating the loss of riparian habitas [habitats] for resident and migratory birds. Mist-net surveys are being conducted at three of the courses and their comparison sites to gain further data on species of migratory birds utilizing the sites. The trend in our surveys so far indicates that most of the golf courses support a greater number of unique bird species than do their counterpart control areas. |
