Comparison of Bird Use of Adjacent Wetlands in Southwestern Wyoming
Abstract
We investigated bird use of adjacent riparian habitats
at the Bear River State Park and old ice ponds in
southwestern Wyoming. We collected habitat data to
show how common species utilize the two areas. Our
results show that common species on both sites use
various combinations of vegetative components and
emphasizes the importance of maintaining woody
vegetation on these sites. Because the vegetative
composition on our study sites is similar to that along
other major rivers in Wyoming, our results should be
applicable to other riparian communities at similar
elevations.
