2the birds of texas: occurrence and seasonal movementsINTRODUCTIONThis list is designed to assist land managers, landowners, biologists and birdwatchers inlearning more about the birds of Texas, especially their seasonal occurrence andmovements. Although detailed information about the migration path of each species isnot provided, basic information about whether a species is a long or short distancemigrant, is sedentary or a post-breeding wanderer can be found here. At the time ofthis writing, there were almost 629 species of birds documented in Texas (Lockwoodand Freeman 2004); more species than any other state in the U.S. It is important tohave a quick reference as to the general occurrence of each species of bird throughoutTexas. This list is designed to accompany any standard field guide to birds.According to this list, the following are approximate percentages for the species ofbirds that have been documented in Texas: How many are resident species? Half of which include some seasonal movementsand half of which do not. How many species are Nearctic-Neotropical migrants? How many species are temperate migrants? How many are breeding species? How many species are vagrants?32%52%10%52%21%The items below include some additional facts on the birds of Texas. Like the above, allpercentages are based on the roughly 629 species that have been documented in Texas. Approximately 493 species (about 79%) occur with some regularity (nonaccidentals). Approximately 327 species (about 52%) are considered landbirds. This listincludes a huge variety of warblers, vireos, woodpeckers, quail, sparrows, hawks,flycatchers, doves and much more. Approximately 139 species (about 22%) are considered waterbirds. This listincludes the following recognized sub-groups: Non-colonial Waterbirds – approximately 55 species (about 9%). This listincludes various species of ducks, geese, rails, etc. Colonial Waterbirds – approximately 41 species (about 6.5%). This listincludes various species of herons, egrets, gulls, terns, etc. Shorebirds – approximately 40 species (about 6.4%). This list includes variousspecies of sandpipers, plovers, curlews, etc. Seabirds – approximately three species (about 0.5%). Exactly six species (about 1%) are introduced species with self-maintainingpopulations.
the birds of texas: occurrence and seasonal movements3 Only three species (about 0.5%) are recently extinct species (within the last100 years), but trend data according to the Breeding Bird Survey (BBS) showthat over half of the species in the U.S. are experiencing declines – many aresignificantly steep declines. For more information on BBS data, please visit:www.pwrc.usgs.gov/bbs/DEFINITIONS OF TERMS USEDBREEDING SPECIES – refers to a species that has been documented as regularlynesting in Texas.EXTINCT – refers to a species that no longer exists on the planet (not synonymous with the word ‘extirpated’ which refers to a species that is no longerfound in a given area, but still occurs somewhere on the planet).INTRODUCED – refers to a species that was released by humans (not native to agiven area).IRRUPTIVE SPECIES – refers to a species that moves seasonally in response tofood availability (e.g., Red Crossbills following cone crops).ISTHMUS OF TEHUANTEPEC – the region of Mexico where the land mass ofthat country “bottlenecks” west of the Yucatan Peninsula. This pinched areaserves as a better dividing line (or geographical barrier) between tropical andtemperate species (and certain families) of birds.LESS THAN 10 RECORDS – refers to accepted, documented records accordingto the Texas Birds Record Committee.PELAGIC – a species of the open ocean (e.g., storm-petrels and shearwaters).POST-BREEDING WANDERING – refers to a species, or individuals of aspecies, that move immediately after nesting into areas where they normally donot nest (e.g., Roseate Spoonbills moving inland in late summer).RARE NESTING SPECIES – refers to a species that breeds in Texas, but mayeither be a rare but regular breeder, or an occasional breeder. A subjectiveterm, but basically implies that it is not easy to find as a nester in Texas (e.g.,Western Bluebird, Tamaulipas Crow, etc.).REGIONAL DISTRIBUTION (A REGIONAL SPECIALTY) – refers to a speciesthat is found only in a certain region (e.g., Red-cockaded Woodpecker in thePineywoods). Such a species regularly occurs in a given region, but is usuallynot expected to occur outside of that region since they are typically tied tospecific habitat requirements.
4the birds of texas: occurrence and seasonal movementsRESIDENT W/MOVEMENT – refers to a species that regularly occurs in all orparts of Texas year-round, yet some individuals (or populations) are known tomigrate. These species may be long or short distance migrants.RESIDENT W/O MOVEMENT – refers to a species that regularly occurs in all orparts of Texas year-round, but it is not expected to migrate.TEMPERATE MIGRANT – refers to a species that makes annual, seasonalmovements to southern latitudes, but not south of the Tropic of Cancer(where, by definition, the tropics begin).TROPICAL MIGRANT—refers to a species that makes annual, long-distancemigrations to tropical latitudes in Central and South America. Typicallyknown as Nearctic-Neotropical Migrants.TROPIC OF CANCER – 23 1/2 north latitude. Basically runs through thesouthern tip of Baja California and east through central Mexico.VAGRANT – refers to species that are unexpected in Texas. This includes specieswith less than four records per year for a ten-year average. The Texas BirdsRecord Committee (TBRC) of the Texas Ornithological Society (TOS)requests written documentation and/or photographs of any species designatedin this category (a.k.a. “Review List”).

Amusement parks, theme parks, water parks, and fairs (collectively referred to as "amusement parks") may be open for modified operations as provided by these protocols. Amusement parks should proceed with caution and adhere to the requirements in this protocol to reduce the potential spread of COVID-19 within their business operations.
There are several characteristics that make Colorado unique when considering funding mechanisms for CPW: Combined parks and wildlife agency: In 2011 Colorado State Parks and the Colorado Division of Wildlife merged to create CPW. As required by law, CPW maintains two separate budgets—one for parks and one for wildlife.
