Abstract The results of 703 observations are given; most of these
were made in the 1930's by James Macnab, Jane Claire Dirks-Edmunds, Dorothy
McKey-Fender, and others. These results are the most comprehensive throughout
the year for any site above 1,000 ft in Lincoln County and hint that bird
communities at sites above 1,400 ft are less diverse than sites nearer sea
level. However, many more systematic observations throughout the year are
needed to elucidate the significance of elevation on bird diversity.
Two marshes on Saddle Bag Mountain are the only locations where Common
Snipe appear to nest in Lincoln County.
