Other titles: Raptors inhabiting Brown's Park and the Flaming Gorge National Recreation Area
Description: Raptors of the northeastern corner of Utah were studied from the summer of 1975 through the summer of 1976. The study area fell within the boundarys [sic] of USFS and BLM administered lands in the Flaming Gorge National Recreation Area and Brown's Park. A brief description of the geology, vegetation, and inventory methods is presented. Major emphasis was placed on cliff nesting raptors, but forest and ground nesting raptors included. Species, relative abundance, descriptions and maps of nest sites are contained within the report. Range manipulations and their effects on the raptor population are discussed. Also ameliorating techniques concerning these manipulations with regard to individual species are presented.
