The cause of this once every 5-year event? The publication of Montana Bird Distribution. The long awaited, newly revised, 6th edition of P.D. Skaar’s Montana Bird Distribution is available. The book is an excellent companion to a field guide because it shows where birds are found in Montana. For every bird species ever observed in the state, maps show breeding and wintering areas. The book can also be useful to government agencies, landowners, consultants, and biologists. It can show what birds may be impacted by projects or management decisions. A complete checklist of Montana’s birds appears in an appendix, as well as a list of species that are threatened, endangered, and species of concern.
