A practical guide to making every bird count, for those who count birds. Counting birds may sound simple—just step outside and start tallying. But in reality, it's a complex and essential endeavor at the core of modern wildlife conservation. In How to Count Birds, conservation biologist Christopher JW McClure offers a practical guide to designing effective bird monitoring programs that inform real-world management and conservation strategies. As species vanish at unprecedented rates, having accurate population data is more urgent than ever. Yet too often, flawed study designs and outdated techniques lead to wasted time, ill-used resources, and misleading conclusions. McClure equips researchers, students, and birders with the tools to design efficient studies that avoid common pitfalls and capture what's truly happening in bird populations. This guide explains the biological, statistical, and philosophical principles behind good monitoring and explores study designs for estimating key demographic rates like survival and reproduction. McClure surveys the techniques used to estimate populations and highlights methods prone to error. Throughout, he advocates for a shift away from traditional approaches toward more precise techniques available today, such as acoustic monitoring and occupancy modeling. Effective study design requires collaboration among wildlife managers, field biologists, and statisticians from the start, as well as flexibility for field conditions and methodological adaptability. Whether you're just beginning or reevaluating a long-standing program, How to Count Birds is a timely reminder that precision and planning are just as critical as passion in the work of conservation.

Do something amazing and learn a new skill thanks to the Little Ways to Live a Big Life books! Birds do it, bees do it, even educated fleas do it... Not falling in love, but counting. Animals and humans have been using numbers to navigate their way through the jungle of life ever since we all evolved on this planet. But this book will help you to do something that humans have only recently understood how to do: to count to regions that no animal has ever reached. By the end of this book you'll be able to count to infinity...and beyond. On our way to infinity we'll discover how the ancient Babylonians used their bodies to count to 60 (which gave us 60 minutes in the hour), how the number zero was only discovered in the 7th century by Indian mathematicians contemplating the void, why in China going into the red meant your numbers had gone negative and why numbers might be our best language for communicating with alien life. But for millennia contemplating infinity has sent even the greatest minds into a spin. Then at the end of the nineteenth century mathematicians discovered a way to think about infinity that revealed that it is a number that we can count. Not only that. They found that there are an infinite number of infinities, some bigger than others. Just using the finite neurons in your brain and the finite pages in this book, you'll have your mind blown discovering the secret of how to count to infinity.

Most people agree that animals count morally, but how exactly should we take animals into account? A prominent stance in contemporary ethical discussions is that animals have the same moral status that people do, and so in moral deliberation the similar interests of animals and people should be given the very same consideration. In How to Count Animals, more or less, Shelly Kagan sets out and defends a hierarchical approach in which people count more than animals do and some animals count more than others. For the most part, moral theories have not been developed in such a way as to take account of differences in status. By arguing for a hierarchical account of morality - and exploring what status sensitive principles might look like - Kagan reveals just how much work needs to be done to arrive at an adequate view of our duties toward animals, and of morality more generally.

Dr. Shoecraft may be the only mathematician since the New Math in the 1960s to seriously analyze the “lowly” subject of arithmetic and how to teach it. His breakthrough came when he experimented with teaching what needs to be understood instead of “known” (memorized), like teaching why addition problems until the algorithm they are using supposedly becomes cemented in their brains. By teaching the essence of arithmetic in sensible ways and appealing to children’s love of games, songs, and movement, he’s proven that virtually ALL children can learn arithmetic — the foundation of algebra, higher mathematics, science, technology, and more, even music! When children understand arithmetic, they own it. It’s no lonver just their teacher’s math. It’s their math! America’s children are being held back in math because of how arithmetic is drug out in elementary school. Virtually every textbook-based elementary school math program in use today is mind-numbing in its repetitiveness from grade to grade. The reason for the redundancy is to slow down the teaching of arithmetic so it can be memorized. Research shows that the human brain is not designed to remember things learned by rote when no longer practiced. That’s acknowledged in the “use-it-or-lose-it” aphorism that states the obvious, that we remember what we use and forget what we don’t. You know that to be true if you’ve ever forgotten things you once knew as well as your own name — things like an old address or a license plate number. Every child can understand base ten numeration when taught hands-on with arithmetic blocks. Thereby, every child can understand base ten arithmetic. And every child can learn how to count out the number facts, like 5 + 7 = 12, 17 - 8 = 9, 6 X 7 = 42, and 56 ÷ 7 = 8, and, if they forget one, never have to guess and risk ridicule and bad grades if they guess wrong. What matters in teaching arithmetic is not how much a child can remember but how much they can figure out if/when they forget.
