Medin, Dean E. Breeding bird responses to diameter-cut logging in west-central 

 Idaho. Research Paper INT-355. Ogden, UT: U.S. Department of Agriculture, 

 Forest Service, Intermountain Research Station; 1985. 12 p. 



Responses of breeding bird populations to structural changes in a Douglas-fir 

 forest caused by logging are quantitatively described. Density, diversity, stand- 

 ing crop biomass, foraging and nesting guild composition, and other attributes 

 of the breeding bird community were assessed on logged and unlogged plots.
