  • Poland: May 2015
    Tropical Birding Trip Report Poland: May 2015 POLAND The Primeval Forests and Marshes of Eastern Europe May 22 – 31, 2015 Tour Leader: Scott Watson Report and Photos by Scott Watson Like a flying sapphire through the Polish marshes, the Bluethroat was a tour favorite. www.tropicalbirding.com +1-409-515-0514 [email protected] Page1 Tropical Birding Trip Report Poland: May 2015 Introduction Springtime in Eastern Europe is a magical place, with new foliage, wildflowers galore, breeding resident birds, and new arrivals from Africa. Poland in particular is beautiful this time of year, especially where we visited on this tour; the extensive Biebrza Marshes, and some of the last remaining old-growth forest left in Europe, the primeval forests of Bialowieski National Park, on the border with Belarus. Our tour this year was highly successfully, recording 168 species of birds along with 11 species of mammals. This includes all 10 possible Woodpecker species, many of which we found at their nest holes, using the best local knowledge possible. Local knowledge also got us on track with a nesting Boreal (Tengmalm’s) Owl, while a bit of effort yielded the tricky Eurasian Pygmy-Owl and the trickier Hazel Grouse. We also found 11 species of raptors on this tour, and we even timed it to the day that the technicolored European Bee-eaters arrived back to their breeding grounds. A magical evening was spent watching the display of the rare Great Snipe in the setting sun, with Common Snipe “winnowing” all around and the sounds of breeding Common Redshank and Black-tailed Godwits.

  • Wallcreeper and the Camargue
    Wallcreeper and The Camargue Naturetrek Tour Report 19 – 23 November 2018 Firecrest Western Swamphen Stripeless Tree Frog Spoonbill Report compiled by Matt Collis Images courtesy of Neil McMahon Naturetrek Mingledown Barn Wolf's Lane Chawton Alton Hampshire GU34 3HJ UK T: +44 (0)1962 733051 E: [email protected] W: www.naturetrek.co.uk Tour Report Wallcreepers and The Camargue Tour participants: Matt Collis & Neil McMahon (leaders) with 16 Naturetrek clients Summary A short birding trip to the very special Camargue district of southern France provides an excellent opportunity to experience good views of typical waterbirds of the west Mediterranean. Utilising a family-run hotel on the outskirts of the ancient city of Arles as our base, the itinerary provided an easy opportunity to look for flamingoes, herons and wading birds using the shallow waters and reed-fringed lagoons as a breeding area or a suitable stop-over for migrants. The mountainous areas attract different and more localized species and we located special birds such as Wallcreeper, Rock Sparrow and Booted Eagle, together with a selection of other stunning species that call the Camargue home. Day 1 Monday 19th November Arriving in the early evening, leaders Neil and Matt met 15 of the 16 clients at Marseille airport, before collecting the minibuses and beginning the journey to the hotel. French protests and road blocks meant the route was more cross country but after just over an hour or so we arrived at our destination, Hotel des Granges. We were greeted by Bruno and Marie-Jo, our wonderful hosts and owners of this classically French Hotel, and a lone Black Redstart, the first bird for our trip, sat roosting over the entrance porch.

  • Progress in the Development of an Eurasian-African Bird Migration Atlas

The African-Eurasian Bird Migration Atlas is being developed and compiled by the European Union of Bird Ringing (EURING) under a Project Cooperation Agreement (PCA) between the CMS Secretariat and the Institute of Avian Research, acting on behalf of EURING. The development of the African-Eurasian Bird Migration Atlas is funded with the contribution granted by the Government of Italy under the Migratory Species Champion Programme. This information document includes a progress report on the development of the various components of the project. The project is expected to be completed in 2021.

  • Partridges, Quails, Pheasants and Turkeys Phasianidae Vigors, 1825: Zoological Journal 2: 402 – Type Genus Phasianus Linnaeus, 1758
    D .W . .5 / DY a 5D t w[ { wt Ç"" " !W5 í ÇI &'(' / b ù b a L w 5 ! ) " í "* " Ç t+ t " h " * { b ù" t* &)/&0 Order GALLIFORMES: Game Birds and Allies The order of galliform taxa in Checklist Committee (1990) appears to have been based on Peters (1934). Johnsgard (1986) synthesised available data, came up with similar groupings of taxa, and produced a dendrogram indicating that turkeys (Meleagridinae) were the most primitive (outside Cracidae and Megapodiidae), with grouse (Tetraoninae), guineafowl (Numidinae), New World quails (Odontophorinae) and pheasants and kin (Phasianinae) successively more derived. Genetic evidence (DNA-hybridisation data) provided by Sibley & Ahlquist (1990) suggested Odontophorinae were the most basal phasianoids and guineafowl the next most basal group. A basal position of the New World quails among phasianoids has been supported by other genetic data (Kimball et al. 1999, Armstrong et al. 2001). A recent analysis based on morphological characters (Dyke et al. 2003) found support for megapodes as the most basal group in the order, then Cracidae, then Phasianidoidea, and within the latter, Numididae the most basal group. In contrast to the above genetic-based analyses, Dyke et al. (2003) found the Odontophorinae to be the most derived group within the order. A recent analysis using both mitochondrial ND2 and cytochrome-b DNA sequences, however, reinforces the basal position of the Odontophorinae (Pereira & Baker 2006). Here we follow a consensus of the above works and place Odontophorinae basal in the phasianids. Worthy & Holdaway (2002) considered that Cheeseman’s (1891) second-hand record of megapodes from Raoul Island, Kermadec Group, before the 1870 volcanic eruption has veracity.
