REVISED PRESS
RELEASE: 12/27/2004
105th Christmas Bird Count of the AudubonMiamiValley Chapter of the
National Audubon Society
Thirty-three birdwatchers were on hand for the 105th Annual 2004
Oxford Christmas Bird Count on Saturday, December 18th. Nice weather (21
to 37 degrees and clear and sunny) brought out both the birdwatchers and
the birds. Whereas last year we had 26 people, this year we had 33
birdwatchers who took to the field, certainly not as many as our all time
high of 51 people seven years ago. They came up with a total of 67 species
(68 if we count the one lost domestic Muscovy Duck), yet short of the
record 74 species seen in 1974. The number of birds tallied was 6787
individuals, considerably above our 12 year average of 5908. Of special
note among the sightings were 1877 European Starlings [our most
frequent species as usual!], followed by 862 American Robbins, 732
Mallard Ducks, 333 House Sparrows, 301 Mourning doves, 296 Gold finches,
and 255 Canada Geese. Two new species to our count were the Blue-winged
Teal and the Northern Shoveler ducks. While these two species of ducks are
not unusual around here, we have never before picked them up on our annual
Christmas Bird Count. Our Duck populations are yet steadily in decline
since Acton Lake has been opened to duck hunting, especially during the
time of our Christmas Bird Count. Other species observed in our count
included 13 Great Blue Herons, 18 Black Vultures, 16 Turkey Vultures, 255
Canada Geese, 18 Tundra Swans, black ducks, 732 Mallards, 11 Blue-winged
Teal, 5 Buffleheads, 3 Northern Harriers, 4 Sharp-shinned Hawks, 3
Cooper's Hawk, 26 Red-tailed Hawks, 11 Kestrels, 6 Northern Bobwhites, 7
American Coots, 5 Killdeer, 1 Bonaparte's Gull, 167 Ring-billed Gulls, 7
Rock Doves, 301 Mourning Doves, 1 Great Horned Owles, 1 Barred Owl, 10
Kingfishers, 1 Redheaded Woodpecker, 85 Red-bellied woodpeckers, 2
Yellow-bellied Woodpeckers, 76 Downy Woodpeckers, 10 Hairy Woodpeckers, 40
Northern Flickers, 24 Pileated Woodpeckers, 38 Blue Jays, 138 Crows, 15
Horned Larks, 212 Carolina Chicakdees, 74 Tufted Titmice, 54
White-breasted Nuthatches, 2 Brown Creepers, 39 Carolina Wrens, 1 Winter
Wren, 15 Golden-crowned Kinglets, 32 Bluebirds, 4 Hermit Thrushes, 862
American Robins, 13 Mockingbirds, 1 brown thrasher, 1877 European
Starlings, 2 Ceder Waxwings, 1 Yellow rumped warbler, 9 Rufus-sided
Towhees, 11 American Tree Sparrows, 1 Field Sparrow, 2 Fox Sparrows, 32
Song Sparrows, 206 White-throated Sparrows, 3 White-crowned Sparrows, 181
Dark-eyed Juncos, 203 Cardinals (our State Bird), 11 Meadowlarks [AMV's
NEW LOGO BIRD], 1 Brown-headed Cowbird, 9 Purple Finches, 80 House
Finches, 296 American Goldfinches, and 333 House Sparrows.
Thirty-three
veteran and first-time birders participated in the annual 105th National
Audubon Christmas Count, including: Paul Anderson, Debra Bowles, Al Cady,
Sharon Edwards, Hardy and Barb Eshbaugh, Bill Heck, Judi Hetrick, Jim and
Alex Hickey, Chuck Holliday, Jeanette Jaskula, Jack Keegan, Tom Klak, Jay
Mager, Bruce Magurn, Ben Matox, Jim and Sarah Michael, Annie Nielson, Dave
Osborne, Neil and Laura Poppendeck, Bill Pratt, Dan Prochaska, Jim Reid,
Gail Reynolds, Larry and Leslye Sherman, Casey Tucker, Jean Vance, Bill
Wilson and Liz Woedl. Liz Woedl helped with observations at the
Birdfeeders throughout the day, as well. A special note of thanks to
each of the 12 "trip leaders" Debra Bowles, AlCady,
Sharon Edwards, Barb and Hardy Eshbaugh, Annie Nielson, Dave Osborn, Bill
Pratt, Jim Reid, Larry and Leslye Sherman, and Liz Woedl.
When the totals
were recorded at noon at Miami University's Ecological Research Center on
Somerville Road where the count started, Liz Woedl and many others, once
again supplied the welcome lunch for all participants. Many thanks to Liz
and everyone else who brought on the food! Larry Sherman organized and
compiled the results and has also made them available on the WWW at the
following URL: http://www.audubonmiamivalley.org.
Our data were submitted via the Internet to National Audubon's Christmas
Bird Count Center. People interested in seeing the total results for North
America are advised to go to their web site at the following URL: http://www.audubon.org/Bird/cbc/index.html |
