Birds of North America (BNA)


Description

Encyclopedic coverage of the life histories of North American birds. The database provides detailed scientific information (18 volumes, 18,000 pages in total for the print version) for each of the 716 species of birds nesting in the USA and Canada. The print version of BNA was completed in 2002, a joint 10-year project of the American Ornithologists' Union, the Cornell Lab of Ornithology, and the Academy of Natural Sciences. The database will include image and video galleries showing behaviors, habitat, nests, eggs, and nestlings, and more. And each online species account will contain recordings of that bird's songs and calls, selected from the extensive collection in Cornell's Macaulay Library of Natural Sounds.
