The information contained in this report was taken from the records of the Tulsa Audubon Society for

the calendar year 2014. A summary containing all of the rare species reported is included.

The data is presented in two formats. One is a compilation of species reported by season. This is a

listing of the first and last dates reported, the number of field reports per season, the number of

individuals per season, the total number of reports, and the total number of individuals. The species

are divided into five reporting seasons: Permanent, Summer, & Winter Residents and Spring & Fall

Migrants. These time periods are based on the dates provided in the Oklahoma Ornithological

Society's Date Guide to the Occurrences of Birds in Oklahoma, Sixth Edition.

The second is a graphical representation of the same data. It provides a percentage of the total

count of a species reported for the year by the week reported. Each increment of each bar graph is

equal to 1 to 10% of the total count. The seasons are color coded starting with January 1st at the

left. This data is heavily skewed towards two major reporting periods: the TAS Tulsa County Spring

Bird Count and the National Audubon Society Christmas Bird Count. It should not be concluded that

the abundance of these species peak at these times.

This report also offers a brief comparison of the 2013 and 2014 records. There were 268 species

totaling 278,427 individuals in 4,393 field reports in 2014. The 2013 data contained 270 species that

totaled 286,712 individuals in 4,072 field reports. There were 16 species reported in 2013 that were

not recorded in 2014 and 13 reported in 2014 that were not seen in 2013. The reporting area

includes all of Tulsa County, all of Lake Keystone, and up to five miles into the bordering counties of

Creek, Okmulgee, Osage, Pawnee, Rogers, Wagoner, and Washington.
