Purpose: to determine relationships between birds and riparian habitats. Purpose of study: To provide forest bird habitat association information for migratory birds in south-central Yukon within the Teslin Tlingit Traditional Territory. Eight semi-permanent (surveyed for two or more years) and four temporary (surveyed in 2000 only) survey transects were established in representative forest habitats. Point count stations were positioned 200 m apart along the length of each transect. Point count surveys were conducted from 13-21 June 2000 by usually one, but sometimes two observers. One hundred ten-point count stations were placed along the 12 transects. Each point count station was surveyed once per year. Each count was comprised of two, five-minute periods to total 10 minutes. During each count, all birds detected by sight or sound within 75 m of the observer were recorded and positioned on a point count mapsheet and their behaviour, age and sex were recorded, when possible. Birds further than 75 m from the observer were also recorded but excluded from analysis. All counts were conducted between 3:30 am and 9:00 am. Temperature (Celsius), percent cloud cover, and wind speed…
