"Robbins and Easterla offer the most comprehensive treatment of the birds recorded in Missouri since Otto Widmann's landmark publication at the turn of the century. Birds of Missouri couples an exhaustive literature review with much unpublished information to present a historical perspective, as well as an up-to-date assessment of each species recorded in the state."--Publishers website.

The Missouri Breeding Bird Atlas Project, conducted from 1986 through 1992, sought to document the status and distribution of the bird species that breed in Missouri. The primary goal was to develop a distributional map for each species that depicts as accurately as possible its true breeding range in the state. The resultant information was intended to: 1) provide baseline data against which future changes in the status and distribution of Missouri's breeding birds could be measured, 2) determine the location of rare species, 3) identify significant habitats and 4) develop a factual database to assist environmental planners in making wise decisions about resource use in Missouri. During the process of collecting the distributional and status information, data were also obtained on species' abundance, breeding phenology and Brown-headed Cowbird brood parasitism. --from Introduction (p. 1).

Birds in Missouri illustrates three hundred fifty-five of the three hundred ninety-eight bird species known to occur in the state in recent centuries. The forty-three species not illustrated are listed in the annotated checklist. The associations of bird species with habitats are emphasized visually and textually, with most species either portrayed in a habitat scene or referenced to the Landscape and Habitats section of this book. As experienced birders know, searching in specific habitat types usually increases the chances of finding the bird species known to frequent that type. However, because non-breeding-season birds range more widely among habitat types, they also may be present in nontypical places. --from preface (p. 11).

"One of the most essential tools in the continued study of the avifauna of the state is a reasonably complete and accurate check-list, revised from time to time as new information comes to light. In addition to its obvious value as a list of the birds known to occur in the state, with the general distribution, relative abundance, and seasonal status of each, it has the indirect and highly important function of pointing out matters which require special attention. This is sometimes done by including in a "hypothetical list" the names of birds whose presence in the state is probable but not yet certain, by indicating the lack of materials, of accurate identification, and of other reliable information where these deficiencies occur, and in other ways"--Page 3
