[nysbirds-l] QCBC Zoom presentation "Bird Migration Research" - Weds, Dec 15, 2021 at 7:30 pm

2021-12-08 Thread Nancy Tognan 
The Queens County Bird Club will hold its next meeting via Zoom on Wednesday, 
December 15, 2021 at 7:30 pm. 
The presentation will be “Experimental bird migration research using the Motus 
Wildlife Tracking System”  by Dr. Christopher Guglielmo.

Description of presentation:   
 The Motus Wildlife Tracking System is a grassroots, cooperative project 
that uses automated radio receiving towers deployed at large spatial scales to 
track the movements of migratory animals. In addition to its potential to 
increase our understanding of migration routes, timing, and survival, Motus has 
created new opportunities for researchers to conduct experimental studies to 
reveal the basic physiological and behavioural mechanisms underlying migration. 
 Chris Guglielmo, professor of biology and co-director of the Advanced 
Facility for Avian Research at the University of Western Ontario, will present 
research from his lab and others that explores the effects of factors like 
hormones, environmental contaminants, and avian malaria on songbird migration.

Zoom registration link is on the home page of www.qcbirdclub.org 
  .  After you register, you will receive a link to 
join the meeting.

Hope to “see" you then.

2021-12-08 Thread Anthony Ciancimino 
Ed Johnson reports the Gray Kingbird at Great Kills Park here in Staten Island 
continues today, 12/8/2021, but has moved locations. The bird was seen by Ed 
along the white trail at the tip of Crookes Point right around here: (40.53202° 
N, 74.13751° W)

Please note that you can walk up the gravel road to this location, but driving 
on it is prohibited unless you have a permit.

Good birding and good luck if you go,
