Purpose: To investigate the effects of beetle-caused white spruce (Picea glauca) mortality, subsequent changes in habitat structure and vegetation, and salvage logging on the avian community in the boreal spruce forest of southwest Yukon. Methodology: Summer bird surveys - 10-minute 100m-radius point counts at 6 stations per site (24 sites total), with varying levels of severity of spruce beetle attack. The 10-minute survey was divided into 5-minute intervals. All birds seen or heard were recorded within 50m radius, 100m radius, and >100m radius. Complete bilingual metadata including detailed survey design, protocols and data dictionaries are available in downloadable files. CWS-North DatasetID: 100_0
