[cayugabirds-l] Christmas Bird Count results

[Paul Anderson]

The results of the Christmas Bird Count are now available in this
spreadsheet: https://docs.google.com/.../1orJOduCB4GKq7JlF0jJM.../edit...

.
Quick summary: We got 97 species on the day, and we have another 4 count
week species so far. We had 46680 individuals, way up from our 10-year
average of 35740. . Three species were seen for the first time: Trumpeter
Swan, Northern Parula, and Wilson's Warbler. We had record high counts for
16 species, and ties for another 5 species. There were no surprise misses.
The most "exotic" sighting was of a European Goldfinch seen at a feeder in
Dryden.
Of course, these numbers are subject to revision as we eliminate duplicates
and as more information trickles in.
Thanks to all the leaders, counters, and everyone who helped with the most
excellent compilation dinner last night for which we had about 60 people.

-Paul

Hi Paul,
    Thanks for the wonderful job. I compiled the count for several years. Linda 
and I entered the back data and we compiled a gaph of the changing abundance. 
Kevin compiled for a number of years and merged his and Jay's photos with each 
species. You showed the history of the numbers for each species and tabulated 
species with count highs and lows. Each technique is great, and a choice that 
the compiler gets to make. Thanks for getting all this together. It is a lot of 
work
John

On the day we had 81 species, which was low. We made up some lost ground in the 
last few days with a few new count week species, mostly observed from Hog Hole. 
The total for the week is now 94, which is only 4 below the 10-year average.

All the data is in that spreadsheet. Enjoy!

[cayugabirds-l] Christmas Bird Count results

[Paul Anderson]

All:

I've been tallying the numbers from the Christmas Bird Count that was held
on New Year's Day. We're going to unveil the numbers at the Zoom meeting on
Monday. Until then, here is a teaser.

   - *181 people participated*, breaking the previous record of 165 from
   2017
   - Participants walked *315 miles* in 305 hours, and spent another *94 *hours
   birding from the car, and *21 *owling
   - We had *88 species* on the day, and at this point have 4 count week
   species, one of which is new for the count
   - *15 species had record highs*, and two tied the previous record high.
   We've never broken so many records before!
   - *No record lows or big misses*, although a few species were much lower
   than we have been used to in recent years

Please join us for the Zoom call on Monday at 7:30 for a presentation of
the details. Register with this link: https://tinyurl.com/cbc-2021-01-cbc.
Please note that we already have 60 people signed up, and our maximum
capacity is 100, so sign up soon!

Thanks,

-Paul
