Are you reporting all species? Here’s why it’s important!

Saturday, May 23rd, 2009

On every eBird checklist birders are asked a simple question: “Are you submitting a complete checklist of the birds you saw/heard?” Though simple in concept, the power of reporting all species should not be underestimated. By submitting a complete checklist of the birds you saw or heard to the best of your ability, you are telling us not only about the birds you found, but you’re also telling us that you did NOT observe a suite of other potential species. By submitting a complete checklist of birds we can learn more about where a species occurs with regularity, but equally important we can begin to say with certainty where it does not occur. This allows us to map entire species’ ranges with more accuracy. When you submit a complete checklist of birds to eBird you’re gathering data for only the species you observed, you are also gathering important “negative data” on a suite of other birds.

Help Solve the Mystery of Hudsonian Godwit Migration

Sunday, May 10th, 2009

Sometimes it seems like there are not many mysteries remaining to be solved about birds that breed in North America. However, Hudsonian Godwits still represent a true mystery: we do not know how they migrate between their breeding grounds in northern Canada and Alaska and their wintering areas in extreme southern South America. Between their staging areas in southern Alaska and Canada and northern Argentina, godwits largely go unnoticed or unobserved each fall. Do most of them make the trip in one big jump? Is there some stopover site hidden away in some part of remote South America that we don’t know about? And how do they return north each year? Do they all meet up and travel together through the central part of North America? How often do they stop once they reach North America? With the help of eBirders across the western hemisphere we might just solve the mystery!

Hybrid from New Hampshire?

When I first began birding many years ago, birds that didn’t look exactly as they were portrayed in field guides where dismissed by me as being an expected species in an unusual plumage. It wasn’t until digital photography became a…

Learn to record bird vocalizations in California

Monday, March 23rd, 2009

Many birders are intrigued by the idea of recording bird songs. For some of us, it provides a mechanism for learning songs, for others its a critical part of a research endeavor. Here’s your invitation to retreat to the Sierra Nevada for a week where you’ll spend each morning in the field recording birds, birding along the way. Join experienced instructors from the Cornell Lab of Ornithology’s Macaulay Library for classroom sessions covering everything you want to know about recording equipment, tips, and techniques. The workshop will be held at San Francisco State University’s Sierra Nevada Field Campus in the Tahoe National Forest.
