Gates JE and Mackler DG. 2013. Bird and herpetofaunal inventories of eight unit and tract additions to Richmond National Battlefield Park, Virginia. Natural Resource Technical Report. NPS/MIDN/NRTR—2013/828. National Park Service. Fort Collins, Colorado
This inventory of eight newly-acquired (2004-2008) units or tracts of Richmond National Battlefield Park (RICH) covered more than one full year and included the spring 2009 breeding and over-wintering (2009–2010) seasons for birds; winter-spring (2009–2010) breeding season for owls; spring 2010 breeding season for nightjars and marsh birds; and spring and summer-fall 2009 and late winter-spring 2010 seasons for amphibians and reptiles (herpetofauna). Prior to field work, we prepared lists of all species that were likely or expected to be found at each unit or tract based on previous documentation or suitable habitat. We also determined the presence, distribution, and relative abundance, whenever possible, of species in different habitat types.
