Ontario Hummingbird Watch
The Penokean Hills Field Naturalists, as a club, has decided to take on assisting with this province-wide project this year.
It’s goals:
1. Identifying migration routes and peak migration dates.
2. Documenting spring arrival and fall departure dates.
3. Defining the northern limits of the breeding range.
4. Locating concentration points.
5. Studying the nesting cycle.
6. Documenting rare species visiting Ontario
7. Collecting information on nesting locations, popular estimates, reproduction rates, and birds returning to the same locality each year.
To see more, look up: http://www.ontariohummingbirds.ca
Instead of having individuals report on-line to this project, we would prefer that you send your information to our local coordinator, Brenda Clark. At no cost to you, send your name and email address to phfnweb@gmail.com, and we’ll send you a list of the specific information we are collecting. For now, if you are interested, please get your feeder(s) up, and mark down the date of your first arrival, how many arrived and, if you know the difference between male and female ruby-throated hummingbirds (Males have dark/red throats, females don’t), tell what was there. When that happens, send the info to Brenda right away.
Thanks for getting involved!
