  • Madagascar Highlights II 17Th October to 31St October 2021 (15 Days)
    Madagascar Highlights II 17th October to 31st October 2021 (15 days) Scaly Ground Roller by Jonathan Rossouw Madagascar is often referred to as the ‘Eighth Continent’ and its exceptional fauna and flora have evolved over millions of years of isolation. This legendary uniqueness is nowhere better reflected than in its birds, and the island hosts no less than five endemic families (the ground rollers, cuckoo roller, mesites, Malagasy warblers and vangas)! But the wonder of Madagascar extends well beyond its avifauna and we do not neglect the amazing lemurs, colourful chameleons and fascinating flora of this appropriately named “laboratory of evolution.” For our Madagascar Highlights tour we have cherry-picked the best of Madagascar and offered it in a shorter package, and as a result, this expedition provides a more relaxed pace and less demanding Madagascar experience than our Comprehensive tours. We target all five endemic Malagasy bird families as well as good numbers of lemurs and other representative wildlife, making this ideal for travellers with limited time or less interest in targeting every single endemic bird.

  • Biolphilately Vol-62 No-4
    100 Biophilately June 2014 Vol. 63 (2) ORNITHOLOGY Editor Glenn G. Mertz, BU1455 New Issues As I prepared to write this article for April, May, and June 2014, /LQQ¶V6WDPS1HZV laid a bomb on their readers ZLWKWKHQRWLILFDWLRQWKDWWKH\KDYHHOLPLQDWHGWKH³1HZ,VVXHV´VHFWLRQLQWKHLUZHHNO\SXEOLFDWLRQ What this means is that collectors and dealers will not be alerted as to what issues are in the pipeline from the some 180+ countries of the globe by their postal authorities. This also means that, by no longer listing this information that was part of my listing, details such as designer, printing method, or printing entity will no longer appear as part of the stamp listing thDW,SURYLGHIRUHDFKLVVXH,VWLOOKDYHVRPHRIWKHVHDUWLFOHVIURPSULRU/LQQ¶VOLVWLQJVIRU issues I have not yet reported, but eventually I will no longer be able to provide this information. Another concern is not knowing when a bird stamp is part of a mixed stamp issue, because Scott Publishing Company does not always list a description of every stamp in a mixed stamp issue as to the subject matter. I have UHDGDQGVHHQDQXPEHURIOHWWHUVWR/LQQ¶VE\VXEVFULEHUVUHJDUGLQJWKHHOLPLQDWLRQRIWKH³1HZ,VVXHV´VHFWLRQ /LQQ¶VVWDWHGUHDVRQIRUHOLPLQDWLRQRQSDJHRIWKH)HEUXDU\ZHHNO\LVVXHLVWKHWLPHLWWRRNWRJHWWKHVH listings and that it furthermore was a duplication of the content in the once-a-PRQWK³6FRWW1HZ,VVXH8SGDWH´ listing in the /LQQ¶V6WDPS1HZV. It appears that /LQQ¶V6WDPS1HZV is not aware of how far the new issue updates are behind in listing some countries. A few are six or more years behind and other are about one year. The losers in this decision are the stamp collecting community and maybe the dealers. And they wonder why stamp collecting is waning as a hobby.

    RECENT LITERATURE Editedby Edward H. Burtt, Jr. BANDING AND LONGEVITY (see also 15, 37) 1. Ring loss from Canada Geese.C. B. Thomas. 1979. Bird Study 26:270-271.- Rate of lossfrom a population of Canada Geese (Branta canadensis)marked with metal and engravedplastic rings in Yorkshireand Scotlandwas 2.3% per annum for metal and 1.7% for plasticrings. However the author presentsdata for only four yearsand assumes lossto be linear with time. Double lossis justifiably ignored, but for a semi-tamespecies it is worth notingthat both maybe removedfor souvenirsor during veterinarytreatment. Neither the pattern of metal ring used (both a clip and a heavier butt are specifiedfor CanadaGeese) nor the material(both monel and incoloywere in useat the time) is given, and the methodof closureis not mentioned(overlap of butt ringsprevents gaping from springback).--P.J. Belman. 2. Lossof weight and legibility of bird rings. M.P. Harris. 1980. Ringing& Migr. 3:41-48.--This is an historicalperspective that chroniclesring wear on the aluminum bandsin generaluse in Britain until 1965which, despite their shortuseful life on marine species,are still widely used in many countrieson groundsof cost. Monel, although an improvement, did not solve the wear problem for several speciesand has now been supersededby incoloywhich, while offering the required performance,is expensiveand likely to be replacedeventually in Britain by an appropriate grade of stainlesssteel.--P. j.

  • Version 2014-04-28 Attached Is the Dynamic1 List of Migratory Landbird
    African-Eurasian Migratory Landbirds Action Plan Annex 3: Species Lists Version 2014-04-28 Attached is the dynamic1 list of migratory landbird species that occur within the African Eurasian region according to the following definition: 1. Migratory is defined as those species recorded within the IUCN Species Information Service (SIS) and BirdLife World Bird Database (WBDB) as ‘Full Migrant’, i.e. species which have a substantial (>50%) proportion of the global population which migrates: - with the addition of Great Bustard Otis tarda which is listed on CMS Appendix I and is probably erroneously recorded as an altitudinal migrant within SIS and the WBDB - with the omission of all single-country endemic migrants, in order to conform with the CMS definition of migratory which requires a species to ‘cross one or more national jurisdictional boundaries,’; in reality this has meant the removal of only one species, Madagascar Blue-pigeon Alectroenas madagascariensis. However, it should be noted that removing single-country endemics is not strictly analogous with omitting species that do not cross political borders. It is quite possible for a migratory species whose range extends across multiple countries to contain no populations that actually cross national boundaries as part of their regular migration. 2. African-Eurasian is defined as Africa, Europe (including all of the Russian Federation and excluding Greenland), the Middle East, Central Asia, Afghanistan, and the Indian sub-continent. 3. Landbird is defined as those species not recorded in SIS and the WBDB as being seabirds, raptors or waterbirds, except for the following waterbird species that are recorded as not utilising freshwater habitats: Geronticus eremita, Geronticus calvus, Burhinus oedicnemus, Cursorius cursor and Tryngites subruficollis.

  • Birds Calling but Couldn’T Lure Any Closer During the Heat of the Mid Afternoon
    Madagascar - Tom and Linda Arny 7th to 18th November 2007 Trip Report compiled by James Currie Tour Summary The tour started on the 7th November after meeting Tom and Linda at Johannesburg International Airport. We arrived in Tana in the late afternoon and commenced the journey to Perinet, ticking our first selection of egrets and herons in the Tana wetlands. It was dark by the time we arrived at Perinet and we embarked on a short evening walk, hearing both Long-eared Owl and Rainforest Scops Owl. The next morning saw us visiting Perinet Special Reserve where we were treated to superb views of Indri. We spent 3 nights in the Perinet/Mantadia area and visited Mantadia on two consecutive mornings, with the balance of the time being spent at Perinet. Highlights from Mantadia included crippling views of Madagascar Pygmy Kingfisher, nesting Velvet Asity and Pitta-like and Scaly Ground-Rollers with particularly good looks at the latter species, several good views of Nuthatch Vanga climbing up and down tree trunks, a pair of Madagascar Little Grebes, stunning looks at Greater Vasa Parrot, Madagascar Blue Pigeon, a greenbul flock that included Grey-crowned, Longbilled and Spectacled Greenbuls with a brief sighting of an unconfirmed Madagascar Yellowbrow, a troop of confiding Diademed Sifakas with Rufous-headed Ground-Roller calling in the background. Highlights from RBT Madagascar Trip Report 2007 2 Perinet included superb close-up views of both Red-breasted Coua and Madagascar Wood Rail, roosting Collared Nightjar, Madagascar Long-eared Owl, skulking Madagascar Flufftail, Red-fronted Coua, nesting Chabert’s and White-headed Vangas and a roosting Rainforest Scops Owl.

Borror. From 1945 to 1987, original recordings in the collection were made primarily by him, with contributions also from his students, OSU faculty and staff, and BLB associates. Today collection augmentation is primarily from the research efforts by the BLB staff and students, but increasingly we receive material from outside contributors. This catalog summarizes the Borror Laboratory's current holdings and is organized taxonomically within each class. Taxonomy and nomenclature of North and Central American birds follow the 1998 "AOU Checklist" and its subsequent annual updates; for other bird species, "Birds of the World" (Sibley & Monroe 1990) is the primary reference. Mammal taxonomy follows "Walker's Mammals of the World" (Nowak 1999). Amphibian taxonomy follows "Biology of the Amphibians" (Duellman & Trueb 1986). Insect taxonomy follows "American Insects: A Handbook of the Insects of American North of Mexico" (Arnett, R.H.

  • Mauritius & Reunion Extension
    Field Guides Tour Report Madagascar 2019: Mauritius & Reunion Extension Nov 2, 2019 to Nov 25, 2019 Phil Gregory & local guide For our tour description, itinerary, past triplists, dates, fees, and more, please VISIT OUR TOUR PAGE. Reunion "Olive" White-eye was one of the more common endemics that we saw on the extension. Participant Mike Walsh got a nice shot of this bird feeding in some flowers. This year the afternoon departure from Tana on Air Mauritius was delayed for an hour and we got to our hotel at Flic en Flac around 1000 pm, where they had kindly kept a dinner for us, which almost no-one wanted, being happy with fruit and yogurt. The contrast with Madagascar was very striking, with good roads, no heavy lorries and no zebus, plus very different living conditions. Our day around Mauritius was excellent and in good weather, with Mauritours doing a fantastic job and local guide Jean-Claude being great. We could not go to our usual site at Bel Ombre as construction of a golf course has blocked access, so Jean Claude took us instead to Chamerel where we saw the first Mauritius (Mascarene) Paradise-Flycatcher we had seen in some years. Bassin Blanc gave us Mauritius Bulbul and Mauritius Olive White-eye, two very good pick-ups, though trying for Mauritius Cuckooshrike proved hopeless at what was a good site until recently. This species is now down to around 30 birds and is likely to go extinct, I fear. The short boat trip to Ile aux Aigrettes sanctuary was again good, and we enjoyed great looks at Pink Pigeon, Mauritius Fody, close Mauritius Olive White-eyes and a wonderful 105-year-old 200 kg adult male Aldabra Giant Tortoise.
