    Bird Observer VOLUME 44, NUMBER 3 JUNE 2016 HOT BIRDS A Western Grebe, originally detected by Alan Trautmann during the annual TASL Boston Harbor waterbird census on February 7, went unreported from that date until rediscovered by Soheil Zendeh, March 11. It was then enjoyed by many birders through at least April 16. Suzanne Sullivan took the photo on the left. In a textbook case of the “Patagonia Picnic Table Effect”, birders chasing the first-state- record Yellow-billed Loon at Race Point found not one but two Common Gulls, the European subspecies of Mew Gull. Dick Veit reported the first one on March 13. Mary Keleher photographed what she thought was the same bird on March 26 but subsequent examination determined this to be a second individual. Jason Forbes took the photo on the left. A flock of Glossy Ibis, described by several longtime area birders as the largest they’d ever seen and numbering over 400 birds at times, was found by Steve Grinley and Margo Goetschkes to include at least two and maybe three White-faced Ibis. The flock circulated between the Hamlin Reservation in Ipswich, Pikul’s Pans in Rowley, and other nearby wetlands between April 24 and May 5. Bob Stymeist took the photo on the left. The best (so far) find of an excellent spring for inland seabirds was the Little Gull that Jonathan Pierce photographed (on left) on Silver Lake in Pittsfield on April 29, apparently only the second record ever for Berkshire County. Unfortunately, the bird flew off after being photographed and was not seen again despite much searching by many area birders.

A CLS Group Company EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Conservation managers confront diverse and ever-changing threats to the properties they are charged with maintaining and protecting. Long term planning to sustainably manage and protect diverse assets for a wide range of uses is central to this mission. The Trustees of Reservations (Trustees) manages over 100 special places and 26,000 acres around Massachusetts (Trustees, 2014) . The properties they manage include more than 70 miles of coastline (Trustees, 2014), an area that is subject to climate driven changes in sea level, storm surge and inundation. From the Castle at Castle Hill to popular public beaches, cultural and historical points, rare and endangered species habitats, lighthouses and salt marshes, the Trustees oversee diverse assets. They are charged with managing these properties to conserve habitat, protect cultural resources and provide exciting and diverse educational and recreational activities for visitors.
