Cavity Nesting Birds and Nestbox Monitoring

By on August 30, 2024 in

Larry Jordan has been enthralled with birds since he spotted a Burrowing Owl in his Oak Run driveway on the way home one evening over 30 years ago. He didn’t know what the bird was so he bought his first field guide and opened up a whole new world of wonder. Since that evening he has been involved in several endeavors to protect birds and advance the joy of birding. He started his own birding blog in 2007 and also posted to the well known 10000 Birds blog. Larry joined Wintu Audubon Society, became the webmaster for the organization, and began photographing birds in 2008. There are 85 species of cavity-nesting birds in North America (excluding Mexico) and 72 of them occur in the western United States. So, please join our webmaster as he discusses the joys of monitoring cavity nesting birds. He will discuss nest box design and highlight some of his favorite cavity nesting bird photos and videos from the last fifteen years.

Shasta Birding Society is inviting you to a scheduled Zoom meeting.

Status of the Tricolored Blackbird and Yellow-billed Magpie

Tricolored Blackbird by David Bogener

Tricolored Blackbird by David Bogener

This month Dan Airola will provide recent status information on the Tricolored Blackbird and Yellow-billed Magpie, two Central Valley species that have declined substantially in recent years. Blackbird population loss has resulted from habitat loss, nest destruction during agricultural harvest, and loss of insect prey due to insecticide use. The successful proposal to list the species under the state Endangered Species Act sparked research and conservation programs. Dan recounts this recent history and the successful efforts that have resulted in modest but important population increase. The population of the state-endemic Yellow-billed Magpie declined by over 80% in California since the arrival of West Nile virus in the early 2000’s, and did not develop resistance, unlike some other species. Dan’s recent studies reveal key habitat relationships and an apparent incipient recovery in the sizable urban Sacramento population.

Dan Airola is a Wildlife Biologist and Ornithologist who has worked for over 40 years in research and conservation of at-risk species birds in Northern California. In addition to long-term research on the tricolor and magpie, Dan maintains a 30-year study of Sacramento’s Purple Martins and has also studied Swainson’s Hawks, Turkey Vultures, Osprey, fire-adapted forest species, migrant songbirds, and diving ducks. Dan also serves the Central Valley Bird Club as a Director, Conservation Chair, and editor of the journal Central Valley Birds.
