Canadian atlas of bird banding. Volume 1, Doves, cuckoos, and hummingbirds through passerines, 1921–1995 / David Brewer … [et al.].: CW69-20/2-2018E-PDF

"This atlas summarizes, for the first time, bird-banding results for Canada, including data on birds banded in Canada and those banded elsewhere but encountered in Canada. Although limited in geographic scope, the data depict movement patterns that are typical for North America as a whole. A full account is given for each species with at least one record of an individual moving more than 100 km; banding and encounter statistics for all species banded in Canada are summarized in an appendix. Many of the results for rarely encountered species have not been published before. The information presented here should be of interest not only to banders and students of migration, but also to managers and conservationists wanting to know more about the wintering destinations and migration routes of Canada's birds”--Abstract, p. iii.
