The objectives of this project are to: 1) establish a long-term breeding bird monitoring program in the CHMA to detect annual changes in species abundances, 2) determine whether bird community composition and species abundances are affected by uneven-aged management, and 3) compare the bird community in the CHMA with other northern hardwood stands in northern Minnesota. This report provides a summary of bird surveys completed in June of 2000 and also compares 1998, 1999 and 2000 survey results.enBird monitoringBird speciesBird surveyBird abundancesAitkin County, MinnesotaCornish Hardwood management areaNatural Resources Research InstituteUniversity of Minnesota DuluthTechnical Report
