Abstract
With over 40 years of SBC data, we can look at trends in a species’ population, range movement, distribution, and even document rare species. Over the past 40 years, SBC data has shown declines in species that were once common, including the Red-headed Woodpecker and Chimney Swift . These species have declined due to habitat loss and food availability.
