N2 - Breeding bird density, species diversity, nesting success, brain cholinesterase activity, and presence of sick or dead birds were evaluated on control and treatment plots during the year of spraying and 1 yr after. No adverse effects were detected in the Dimilin plots, and no major effects in the Sevin-4-Oil plots, although 2 of 55 birds showed brain cholinesterase depression. In the Orthene plots, however, studies of brain cholinesterase activity showed severe and prolonged depression (commonly 30-50%) for up to at least 33 days. Abnormal behavior symptomatic of organophosphate poisoning was also observed.-from US Govt Reports Announcements, 24, 1981
