– Species accounts with information on changes in abundance and distribution as well as conservation and management methods
– An eighty-year history of banding and migration watching at Block Island, seventy years of seabird migration quantification at Point Judith, a detailed history of the state’s seabird colonies, and multiple surveys of the state’s breeding birds
– Color photographs taken in the field of recent rarities discovered in Rhode Island

Offering a chronicle of changing avian population dynamics, Birds of Rhode Island is an indispensable resource for ornithologists and bird enthusiasts interested in the avifauna of Rhode Island and beyond.
