These species include: Golden Eagle, Peregrine Falcon(tundra), Short-eared Owl, King Eider, Common Eider, Black-bellied plover, American goldenPlover, Eskimo curlew, sanderling, semipalmated sandpiper, Wilson’s snipe, American treesparrow, Harris’ sparrow, white-crowned sparrow and snow bunting. Some of these species, suchas the American tree sparrow, white-crowned sparrow, Harris’ sparrow, and American goldenplover were relatively common in the Hackett RSA.Critical habitat features of golden eagle and the peregrine falcon includes cliffs for nestingnearby water bodies with an ample supply of shorebirds (prey) and small mammals. Criticalhabitat for the short-eared own includes ground nesting area with some vegetative cover nearbylakes with abundant shorebirds populations (prey). Three habitat features that separate outshorebirds and songbird populations in the region include: sedge wetlands, heath tundra/boulderfield, and riparian shrub/birch seep habitats (Rescan, 2007b). Other important features for waterassociatedspecies include riparian habitat, water bodies with fish or plankton for feeding and/orbeach materials.January 2008 Hackett River Project – Project Proposal Sabina Silver CorporationReport Version B.1 6–20 Rescan Environmental Services Ltd.
