SUMMARY:Apr 25 – May 24\, 2020  Annual Spring Census
DESCRIPTION:Event Coordinator – Jamie Meyers \nContact Jamie for more information at 860-693-4497 or sunnyctredbird@gmail.com \nThe HAS Spring Bird Census is On!  Our Census leader\, Jamie Meyers\, has extended the dates to run from Saturday\, April 25 and run through Sunday\, May 24.  Everyone is invited to participate while observing social distancing.  We’re following the ABA guidelines for respectful birding and will be doing this individually instead of teams as in “normal” years.  If you’d like to participate\, please contact your town captains below.  Please report your sightings to the captains\, who then compile the results for their town and submit them to Jamie.    Please review details below and stay safe! \nAvon: Brian Toal\nBarkhamsted: open\nBloomfield: Linda Clancy\nBolton: open\nBristol: David Zomick\nBurlington: Margaret Schuster\nCanton: Jay Kaplan\nE Hartford: Debi Wheeler\nEllington: open\nEnfield: Jim Deschamps\nFarmington: Jim Moore\nGlastonbury:  Bill Asteriades\nGranby: John Weeks\nHartford: Open\nManchester:  Open\nNew Britain: Open\nNewington : Roy Zatarian\nPortland: Open\nRocky Hill: Open\nSimsbury: Doug Beach\nSomers: Jan Collins\nSouth Windsor:  Paul Desjardins\nSuffield: Arthur Sikes\nWest Hartford: Helen Rubino Turco\nWethersfield:  Steve Kotchko\nWindsor: Mike and Judy Whittlesey \nFor those new to the census\, it is a tally of species seen during the period on a town by town basis.  Each species counts as one; there is no effort to count total numbers of birds\, as in a Christmas Count.  Each participating town has a captain; they are listed on the HAS website and in the program book.  Please report your sightings to the captains\, who then compile the results for their town and submit them to me. \nI have gone birding frequently during this ordeal and seen that responsible birding and social distancing are not mutually exclusive ideas.  But\, I have found in order to achieve that\, it is necessary to do things differently.  Most importantly\, the most popular recreation areas are currently even busier with people trying to get some fresh air than usual.  I strongly recommend avoiding those places except in the early morning.  The good thing here is that early morning is when you would want to go anyway\, as that is when bird activity is at its best.  Access to state parks is also limited.  The same approach applies to those places.  I am favoring locations with wide walking paths or other very open spaces\, where it is more possible to safely share your space with others.  I recommend avoiding busier places which have narrow walking paths.  Birding in groups is highly discouraged.\n\nI hope that many of you who do the census every year will get out enjoy the season to whatever extent you feel comfortable. Under no circumstances am I suggesting you go out into the field if you don’t feel comfortable or safe doing so.  You have to do what’s right for you.\n\nThe American Birding Association recently published excellent guidelines for birding during these times\, which I am posting below.  Please be safe and smart!\n\n–Jamie Meyers\nAmerican Birding Association Guidelines on Birding and Social Distancing. \nThe basic principles of “quarantine” birding are already well covered in the  ABA Code of Birding Ethics: \n\n        3a. Respect and promote the law and the rights of others; and\n\n        3b. Familiarize yourself with and follow all laws\, rules\, and regulations governing activities at your birding location.\n\nEven so\, there are gray areas and places where reasonable\, caring birders will differ. Here are a few thoughts to help guide your birding as we all get through these challenging\, rapidly changing times together:\n\n\nBirding is a GREAT thing to do right now\, whether you’re a lifelong birder or someone who has just started noticing birds out your window. Keeping a connection with birds and nature is a valuable way to improve mood\, lower stress\, and gain perspective on our current troubles. As such\, birding should be strongly supported and encouraged.\nSome types of birding and birding locales are specifically to be avoided now\, particularly any situation or location that would encourage or require people to violate physical distancing guidelines or travel away from one’s local area. These should be scrupulously avoided.\nThere is no “one size fits all” prescription for how to accomplish this. People are in many different types of living situations\, from high-density urban dwellings to very lightly populated\, rural landscapes. Exactly what is appropriate will vary significantly from place to place.\nPlease remember that every time you hike into the wilds or get on the road to drive to go birding\, you have the potential to require emergency services. This could put pressure on an already strained group of emergency personnel at this challenging time. As such\, work to stay as close to home as possible.\nPeople’s judgement of what is safe will vary. There is little to be gained from birders attacking each other on social media and elsewhere about perceived lapses in physical distancing. However\, thoughtful discussion\, promotion\, and modeling of one’s own “quarantine” birding practices are welcome and appropriate.\n\nIn short\, bird as you are able\, close to home\, and without exposing yourself or anyone else to risk.

SUMMARY:Greenstone Hollow Update from Chris Fisher - 5/9/2020
DESCRIPTION:Greenstone Hollow Update from Chris Fisher: \nHi Everyone – I wanted to give you an update on work that’s been going on at our Greenstone Hollow Nature Preserve in East Granby. \nThe Butterfly Garden has beautiful bulbs blooming that Roberta Gowing and friends planted last year. \nCathy Delasco placed two bluebird houses at the corners of the garden and at least one of them has a Tree Swallow family in residence.  Cathy\, Drew Smith and Michelle Clifford and I have been spreading 8 truckloads of mulch given to us by the town of East Granby. \nWe have almost finished spreading it on the entire Wood Thrush trail on the south side of Ridge Road. This trail goes through a lot of nice habitat\, but was hard walking because it tended to be muddy and have a lot of above ground roots to trip on. \nNow it is really pleasant walking – come give it a try. \nAs we were working we heard Blue-winged Warblers\, Black-and-White Warblers\, Common Yellowthroats and Northern Parulas. \nLarry Lunden heard and saw several of those and more as he did his bird survey to report to E-bird. \nFinally\, Diane and I have put in 3 new benches and may get a couple more in today.  There’s one at the Butterfly Garden\, one at Yellowthroat Overlook and one at Bluebird Hollow. \nSo come out and explore this lovely spot.  It’s a nice\, uncrowded place to get outdoors.
