Abstract
Breeding birds and small mammals were inventoried in west-central Colorado, in stands ranging from pure aspen to nearly pure spruce-fir. In aspen, the bird community included several species not found in the conifer-dominated stands, but bird density and diversity were not different. In all, 18 bird species and three small mammals showed responses to the various overstory characteristics.
