Its use as a meaningful taxonomic indicator has been defunct for well over a century, as the “warblers” encompass hundreds of thin-billed, insectivorous passerines across more than a dozen families worldwide. This is not itself an issue, as many other passerine names (flycatcher, tanager, sparrow, etc.) share this common name “polyphyly”, and conventions or modifiers are widely used to designate and separate families that include multiple groups.

Yet, it was still too early to experience the real explosion of bird song, which usually happens after dawn. Then, after 05:30 AM, the chorus started when a vocal Great Kiskadee broke the morning silence, followed by the scratchy notes of two Hoffmann´s Woodpeckers, a nesting pair of Inca Doves, the ascending and monotonous song of the Yellow-bellied Elaenia, and the cacophony of an (apparently!) engaged pair of Rufous-naped Wrens. This was indeed a warm welcome to magical Costa Rica! To complement the first morning of birding, two boreal migrants, Baltimore Orioles and a Tennessee Warbler, joined the bird feast just outside the hotel area. Broad-billed Motmot . Photo: D. Ascanio © Victor Emanuel Nature Tours 2 The Best of Costa Rica, 2019 After breakfast, we drove towards the volcanic ring of Costa Rica. Circling the slope of Poas volcano, we eventually reached the inspiring Bosque de Paz. With its hummingbird feeders and trails transecting a beautiful moss-covered forest, this lodge offered us the opportunity to see one of Costa Rica´s most difficult-to-see Grallaridae, the Scaled Antpitta.

    Tropical Birding Trip Report Costa Rica: The Introtour | July 2017 A Tropical Birding SET DEPARTURE tour Costa Rica: The Introtour July 15 – 25, 2017 Tour Leader: Scott Olmstead INTRODUCTION This year’s July departure of the Costa Rica Introtour had great luck with many of the most spectacular, emblematic birds of Central America like Resplendent Quetzal (photo right), Three-wattled Bellbird, Great Green and Scarlet Macaws, and Keel-billed Toucan, as well as some excellent rarities like Black Hawk- Eagle, Ochraceous Pewee and Azure-hooded Jay. We enjoyed great weather for birding, with almost no morning rain throughout the trip, and just a few delightful afternoon and evening showers. Comfortable accommodations, iconic landscapes, abundant, delicious meals, and our charismatic driver Luís enhanced our time in the field. Our group, made up of a mix of first- timers to the tropics and more seasoned tropical birders, got along wonderfully, with some spying their first-ever toucans, motmots, puffbirds, etc. on this trip, and others ticking off regional endemics and hard-to-get species. We were fortunate to have several high-quality mammal sightings, including three monkey species, Derby’s Wooly Opossum, Northern Tamandua, and Tayra. Then there were many www.tropicalbirding.com +1-409-515-9110 [email protected] Page Tropical Birding Trip Report Costa Rica: The Introtour | July 2017 superb reptiles and amphibians, among them Emerald Basilisk, Helmeted Iguana, Green-and- black and Strawberry Poison Frogs, and Red-eyed Leaf Frog.

  • Placement Student's Final Report*
    Placement Student’s Final Report* LAURA CANNON *Abridged from original. Contains only Scientific Report portion. SCIENTIFIC REPORT THE EFFECT OF AN ARTIFICAL FEEDER ON HUMMINGBIRD BEHAVIOUR ABSTRACT Like their fellow nectavores, Hummingbirds try to maximize the ratio of energy obtained to energy expended; they try to consume as much nectar with as little movement as they can (Feinsinger, 1978; Hainsworth & Wolf, 1972). The way in which they optimize their consumption is through their ecologically defined roles, they behave in such a way to increase their chances of obtaining food; they often match the length of their bill to the length of the flower. Montgomerie & Gass (1981) noted that Hummingbirds abundance appears to be limited by the availability of nectar. In this study the presence of the artificial feeder provides a constant supply of food while it is up, which could cause a change in the Hummingbirds behaviour for example are maurders (bare in and feed) seen to convert to trapliners (visit multiple flowers), or territorialists (defenders) to become filchers (thieves)? Artificial feeders can affect hummingbirds foraging behaviour and abundance, but despite its potential importance, few previous studies have focused on the consequences of nectar feeders giving contradictory results (Feinsinger, 1978; Sonne et al., 2015). In a study by Arizmendi et al., (2007) the presence of a nectar feeder reduced hummingbird visitation to nearby plants in their study in Mexico. However in Brockmeyer and Schaefer’s study (2012) the number of visits to the flowers around the feeder increased when the feeder was present. This studies main focus is to determine how the presence of an artificial feeder affects the hummingbird’s behaviour specifically feeding, perching and aggression.

LEADER : DAVID ASCANIO LIST COMPILED BY : DAVID ASCANIO VICTOR EMANUEL NATURE TOURS , INC . 2525 WALLINGWOOD DRIVE , SUITE 1003 AUSTIN , TEXAS 78746 WWW.VENTBIRD .COM COSTA RICA: A RELAXED & EASY TOUR JUNE 17–25, 2017 By David Ascanio Photo album: https://www.flickr.com/photos/davidascanio/albums/72157684103453550 Bird images in this field list: From top to bottom: Red-headed Barbet (Eubucco bourcierii), Resplendent Quetzal (Pharomachrus mocinno), Russet-naped Wood-Rail (Aramides albiventris). Our tour to magical Costa Rica started in the beautifully arranged gardens of the Hotel Bougainvillea. In these gardens, we came across our first target species of the tour, the Lesson’s Motmot. It was foraging between native and exotic plants, small ponds, vines, bromeliads with brightly colored inflorescence, and flowering orchids. This brought the opportunity to give a brief explanation of old and modern taxonomy and the challenges raised with the development of molecular biology. A good example was indeed this motmot, a species formerly considered as part of the Blue-crowned Motmot and now separated into five species. From San José we drove south, to the Cerro de la Muerte . Once we reached the ridge, we took a short detour to the Paraiso Quetzal where hummingbird feeders provided views of the regional endemic Fiery- throated Hummingbird. There were also Lesser Violetears and Magnificent Hummingbirds. After lunch, the clouds were still dispersed, and there was no sign of rain. Thus, we decided to play with luck and drove to the highest point of the road, to the antenna dirt road.

    Field Guides Tour Report Panama's Canopy Lodge: El Valle de Anton (Private) 2018 Mar 18, 2018 to Mar 25, 2018 John Coons & Danilo Rodriguez Jr. For our tour description, itinerary, past triplists, dates, fees, and more, please VISIT OUR TOUR PAGE. This Chestnut-headed Oropendola is looking rather menacing as it eyes David¹s camera. We saw a lot of these at the feeders as well as at the large tree with 30+ nests. Photo by participant David Baker. We had a great week of birding at the very comfortable Canopy Lodge in the cool foothills at El Valle as members of the Mearns Bird Club shook off the cold of Orange County, NY to migrate south to Panama. I did a bit of researching and could not find any reference to Edgar Alexander Mearns spending any time in Panama so you were all representing the name well as we birded wet and dry forests, open pastures, a large city park, coastal lowlands and marshes. Except for our day birding the Rio Indio and Jordanal area where we had a day of rain the weather was spot on, not too hot and fairly dry. Even on our wet day we did quite well with the specialties we searched for. Highlights of the trip were many and included those Crested Bobwhites walking right across the road at Juan Hombron, great views of several Swallow- tailed Kites, a wonderful Spectacled Owl on a day perch, the Common Potoo on its branch, perhaps on a nest, finally getting our White-tipped Sicklebill, the thin-tailed male Green Thorntail, the very fancy and diminutive Rufous-crested Coquette, scope views of the rare Snowcap, Orange-bellied Trogon, five species of motmots including our Tody Motmot, Barred Puffbird being harassed by a few hummingbirds, great looks at Keel-billed Toucans, our good view of Dull-mantled Antbird, a cooperative Long-tailed Tyrant exposed on a broken limb, Lance-tailed and Golden-collared manakins, the great look at the Rosy Thrush-Tanager, seeing a few Golden-winged Warblers getting ready to head north, and the Crested Oropendolas working at their nests, among many others.
