attempts. In addition to new survey routes, repeat surveys should be made in 

 spruce/fir forest types using routes covered by this study. Nest location and 

 nest site analysis are important so that management guidelines for_ these areas 

 can incorporate boreal habitat requirements for NFMA compliance. 



Site specific data on seasonal and yearly boreal habitat requirements are 

 needed on a long term basis to ensure a viable boreal population on forest 

 lands in the region.
