Grassland Management and Restoration for Breeding Birds: An Annotated Bibliography

James R. Herkert

This resource is an annotated bibliography of references that deal with the management and restoration of grasslands and their associated breeding birds. Following each citation is a summary of the results of the paper that seem most significant with respect to the management of grassland habitats. Not all significant results of each paper are discussed, just those that appear to be most pertinent to grassland management. This bibliography includes research dealing primarily with grasslands and grassland birds from the United States, but is not exhaustive. Some references have certainly been missed. Nevertheless, this list should provide a pretty good, general overview of the literature pertaining to grassland management and restoration for breeding birds.
