The source for the above list was Resource Inventory for the Cold River Corridor, August 1996, developed by Douglas G. Payne. Payne based his information on a variety of reliable sources, including Natural Heritage Inventory records, the Atlas of Breeding Birds in New Hampshire, and the Audubon Society of New Hampshire bird database.
