Description
Did you know that Yellow-billed Cuckoo populations fluctuate significantly in response to local caterpillar populations? Or that they often lay eggs in the nests of other birds? The Western Yellow-billed Cuckoo is a candidate for listing under the Endangered Species Act. Populations of these striking birds have severely declined throughout their range mostly because of the loss of critical riparian habitat for breeding. Matt will tell you more about the populations, behavior, and ecology of this species and what information is needed to best to conserve their populations.
