surface water availability on habitat quality (i.e.,<br />
reproduction). Additional monitoring should be<br />
focused in the middle- <strong>and</strong> high-elevation areas<br />
<strong>of</strong> district <strong>and</strong> it may be possible to combine<br />
some <strong>of</strong> this monitoring with the fire-effects<br />
monitoring program.<br />
Because birds are highly mobile, we<br />
expect new species will be added to the district<br />
list for years to come. Surveys in areas that are<br />
67<br />
difficult to access (e.g., Douglas Springs area)<br />
will be most likely to yield new species. Also,<br />
surveys during the fall, winter, <strong>and</strong> early spring<br />
will likely add species to the list. We also<br />
encourage the breeding-status clarification <strong>of</strong> a<br />
number <strong>of</strong> species that we expect breed in the<br />
district, but that we were not able to confirm (see<br />
<strong>Inventory</strong> Completeness).
