Birds of Camili Artvin, Turkey

Abstract

This study was conducted in Camili Artvin, of North-East Turkey . Breeding and autumn migrating field surveys between March 2003 and October 2003 were performed in order to determine breeding statutes and transit bird speciesof Camili. The study area was divided into four different sub–regions. In these sub-regions, timed-species counts TSCs were made to determine species abundance. The Margalef index and the cluster analysis were also used todetermine species richness and similarity between sub-regions. In total, 49 bird species were recorded. The mostabundant breeding bird species in the study area were determined as redstart Phoenicurus phoenicurus , blackbird Turdus merula , blackcap Sylvia atricapilla , coal tit Parus ater , great tit Parus major , jay Garrulus glandarius ,and chaffinch Fringilla coelebs . Moreover, it was found out that the area was probably used by a total 38 actualand/or possible bird species for breeding purposes
