UVM Ornithology Extra Credit Assignment - World Migratory Bird Day
Date: 5/8/21
Start Time: 9:00
End Time: 11:00
Location: Landry Park, Winooski VT
Habitat: large grassy field with playground, lined by ornamental trees; trails through young deciduous forest.
Weather: 50 degrees Fahrenheit, 6 mph wind, 100% cloud cover, very light rain
The most bird activity was closer to 9am and it petered out closer to 11. Nobody showed up to our tour so we went on a walk on the trails and saw several Pileated Woodpeckers. At one point a Common Grackle came too close to the robin nest we were observing, and the robin chased it off, alarm calling. It's alarm calls recruited cardinals, chickadees, and tufted titmice, which flew over and also began alarm calling.
