Birders who submit their checklists to Cornell Lab of Ornithology’s eBird likely know that their data may be used to conduct scientific research on subjects such as migration, changes in range, or assessment of populations. I emailed the authors and asked about their research and their use of eBird data.

Jonathan Elphick and John Fanshawe provided “specialist research” and support.” He describes lark mirrors and other contraptions that were used to entice the birds into traps in detail, and cites the few documented numbers of larks sold in market in the early 19 th century (826, 462 in the Paris market in 1832).

Citizen science is a term used for the systematic collection and analysis of data and the dissemination of such data by researchers on a primarily voluntary basis. Individuals or networks of volunteers, many of whom may have no formal scientific training, perform research-related tasks such as observation, measurement, or computation.

I present here an annotated collection of photos documenting the entry of new parrotlets into this world. The youngest bird in this clutch is only two or three days old.

With some research, I ended up with more questions than answers, making these birds all the more interesting! From the information I was able to gather, the first record in the state of Florida was in 1953, although a previously unrecognized specimen was collected in 1892 from Key West. where are these birds coming from?

For birders, it’s the extremely large book, shelved in a place where it can’t crush the field guides, used to research the history of a bird in their area. It was a gigantic, innovative project that collected and catalogued massive amounts of data about birds, habitat, and ecological change.

Yet, Wright points out, Song Sparrow was first depicted and named (‘Little Sparrow’) by Mark Catesby decades earlier, and then again collected by William Bartram and described and drawn by George Edwards in 1764. Alexander Wilson, for example, is credited with the first scientific description of Song Sparrow in 1810.
