  • Ebird 101: Just the Basics (Sort Of!)
    eBird 101: just the basics (sort of!) Introduction to eBird Many club members will by now have heard talk of eBird (www.ebird.ca). For those of you who haven’t, eBird is an online checklist program where anyone is free to join and submit their observations. Everything that is submitted is added to this permanent database and archived for use now and in the future. eBird provides a great tool for individuals, organizations, researchers, conservations, and land managers to access a huge amount of information about the distribution and abundance of the world’s birds. Before we get going, a bit of history is in order. eBird was launched in 2002 by the Cornell Lab of Ornithology with the hypothesis that everyday observations by birders could make a big difference to our understanding about birds. Initially, take-up was slow by birders because there wasn’t much in the way of incentives for people to contribute. However, when eBird began to offer incentives (more on those later) participation grew steadily and in the last several years growth has been amazing, growing exponentially in many places. Beginning in 2006, Bird Studies Canada partnered with Cornell to launch eBird Canada, which is a Canadian-specific “portal” to the site which features Canadian news and features. In Canada, as of November 2015, we had seen over 20 million observations submitted! Ontario leads the way accounting for just under half of the Canadian total. In fact, only California, New York, and California have submitted more data to eBird than Ontario! In this, the first instalment of a three part series, we’ll give you all the information you need to understand how to not just participate but to make the most out of eBird.

  • Mottled Duck Hybridization by Tony Leukering and Bill Pranty
    Mottled Duck Hybridization By Tony Leukering and Bill Pranty Mottled Duck is locally fairly common in the southeast United States on the Coastal Plain from Texas to South Carolina, with isolated outposts in northern Louisiana, southern Arkansas, southeastern Oklahoma, and south-central Kansas. The species’ range extends south from Texas to central Tamaulipas (around Tampico), with some records to central Veracruz. Mottled Ducks also have wandered north of Texas as far as North Dakota (Robbins et al. 2010). Two subspecies have been recognized, although due to similar appearance often merged: nominate fulvigula, an isolated race endemic to peninsular Florida that occurs from Alachua County south, utilizing primarily freshwater habitats; and maculosa in coastal Alabama west around the Gulf of Mexico to Northern Tamaulipas, which favors coastal marshes and inland-prairie wetlands (A.O.U. 1957, Baldassarre 2014). The population of coastal South Carolina and Georgia (and possibly accounting for many of the North Carolina records) was introduced into southern South Carolina from both subspecies (Bielefeld et al. 2010). The Mottled Duck’s range has little overlap with the southern part of Mallard’s “wild” breeding range, but feral populations of “park” Mallards essentially overlap it completely. Hybridization with Mallard is widespread, and one study showed that 11% of Florida birds judged to be Mottled Ducks based on appearance had mixed genetic (“hybrid”) composition, with these “hybrids” accounting for as much as 24% of ducks at one sampled locality (Williams et al. 2005). This phenomenon is considered to be the primary driving force behind Mottled Duck population decline there (FWC 2014).

  • Improving Data Quality in Ebird- the Expert Reviewer Network
    Biodiversity Information Science and Standards 2: e25394 doi: 10.3897/biss.2.25394 Conference Abstract Improving Data Quality in eBird- the Expert Reviewer Network Steve Kelling ‡ ‡ Cornell Lab of Ornithology, Ithaca, United States of America Corresponding author: Steve Kelling ([email protected]) Received: 31 Mar 2018 | Published: 17 May 2018 Citation: Kelling S (2018) Improving Data Quality in eBird- the Expert Reviewer Network. Biodiversity Information Science and Standards 2: e25394. https://doi.org/10.3897/biss.2.25394 Abstract eBird is a global citizen science project that gathers observations of birds. The project has been making a considerable contribution to the collection and sharing of bird observations, even in the data-poorest countries, and is accelerating the accumulation of bird records globally. On 22 March 2018 eBird surpassed ½ billion bird observations. A primary component of ensuring the best quality data is the network of more than 1300 volunteer reviewers who scour incoming data for accuracy. Reviewers provide active feedback to participants on everything from bird identification to best practices for data collection. Since eBird’s inception in 2002, almost 23 million observations have been reviewed, requiring more than 190,000 hours of effort by reviewers. In this presentation we review how eBird recruits expert reviewers, describe their responsibilities, and offer some insight in new developments to improve the reviewing process. How are reviewers recruited. There are three primary methods that used to identify new reviewers. First, if we don’t have any active participants in a region (e.g., Kamchatka Russia) eBird staff search birding listserves to find an individual who is reporting a lot of high-quality observations from the area.

  • 2016 Annotated Checklist of Birds on the Fort
    16 ANNOTATED CHECKLIST GREATER WHITE-FRONTED GOOSE (Anser albifrons) Status: Uncommon but irregular spring and fall migrant, casual winter visitor. Distribution: Look for Greater White- fronted Geese on large wetlands and in cropland. High Counts: About 10 Greater White- fronted Geese were in Nels Three-Quarters Pasture in April 2011 (Ryan Cumbow pers. comm.). Remarks: In Central SD, Greater White- fronted Geese (Figure 15) are most often found mixed with large flocks of Canada or Snow Geese. White-fronted migration peaks in April and from late September to late Figure 15. October. One or two Greater White-fronted Geese were heard with Canada Geese flying over Prairie Hills North Pasture on 10 February 2015 (DNS, Ryan Cumbow). SNOW GOOSE (Chen caerulescens) Status: Abundant but irregular spring and fall migrant, casual summer and winter visitor. Distribution: Snow Geese use cropland and large wetlands. Remarks: Snow Goose migration peaks in April and again from late September to early November. A lingering spring bird was near Dry Hole Chester Pasture on 1 May 2014 (DNS, Ryan Cumbow). A “blue” Snow Goose was observed several times in the SW portion of the checklist area (for example at Booth Dam) in June 2010 or 2011 (Ryan Cumbow pers. comm.). Alan Van Norman reported a Snow Goose in the Lyman County portion of the Fort Pierre National Grassland on 5 January 2013 (eBird database). ROSS’S GOOSE (Chen rossii) Status: Fairly common but irregular spring and fall migrant. Distribution: The distribution of the Ross’s Goose is the same as the Snow Goose. High Counts: Approximately 40 Ross’s Geese were with the hundreds of Snow Geese passing over the Cookstove Shelterbelt on 10 November 2014 (DNS).

  • Pycnonotus Cafer)In Houston, Texas
    The Wilson Journal of Ornithology 125(4):800–808, 2013 ECOLOGY, BEHAVIOR, AND REPRODUCTION OF AN INTRODUCED POPULATION OF RED-VENTED BULBULS (PYCNONOTUS CAFER)IN HOUSTON, TEXAS DANIEL M. BROOKS1 ABSTRACT.—Results are reported from a citizen-science program to study the ecology, behavior, and reproduction of an invasive population of Red-vented Bulbuls (Pycnonotus cafer) in Houston, Texas. The most frequent behaviors are foraging (n 5 69), resting (n 5 45), and calling (n 5 29). The entire population occurred in urban areas. Bulbuls consumed berries (n 5 8 species), fruits (n 5 5), flowers (n 5 5), and buds (n 5 4); some insects are also included in the diet. Nine of the 20 species of identified plants consumed are exotics found within the native range of the bulbul, six are exotics found outside the native range, and five are native Texas species. The most common of the 35 species of plants that bulbuls perched in are bamboo (Bambusa sp.), crape myrtle (Lagerstroemia indica), edible fig (Ficus carica), and tallow (Sapium sebiferum). Flock size averaged 2.3 birds/flock (range 5 1–22) and the largest flocks (12–22 birds) are in late summer and early winter. Bulbuls are not migrants; peak observations are during spring and summer, with lower numbers during October. General biology is similar between Houston bulbuls, native populations in Asia, and other invasive populations in the Northern Hemisphere. This alien population is not a serious agricultural pest or disperser of weedy seeds, does not compete with native species, and has not expanded beyond the Houston region in the continental United States.
