500 _a"Many of the chapters in this volume were presented at the 50th anniversary meeting of the Raptor Research Foundation in October 2016 at Cape May, New Jersey."--Preface, page xv.
520 _a"Raptors are an unusual success story of wildness thriving in the heart of our cities--they have developed substantial populations around the world in recent decades. But there are deeper issues around how these birds make their urban homes. New research provides insight into the role of raptors as vital members of the urban ecosystem and future opportunities for protection, management, and environmental education"--
