THE STATUS OF SPRING AND SUMMER BIRDS ON MITLENATCH ISLAND, BRITISH COLUMBIA, 1981-1995

Abstract

Our knowledge of the birds on Mitlenatch Island, British Columbia, is largely confined to a list of species seen by many naturalists and visitors, recently compiled by Sirk et al. (1993). Sirk et al. mixed information on the status of birds on Mitlenatch with that from nearby Cortes Island, but this leads to erroneous results for Mitlenatch.
