Changes In Agricultural Land Use And The Effectiveness Of Protected Areas: Impacts On The Occurrence Of Three Grassland Bird Species In The Carden Plain Of Ontario, Alice L. Merondun, Ginny Moore, Ron Reid, Erica Nol Nov 2025

Changes In Agricultural Land Use And The Effectiveness Of Protected Areas: Impacts On The Occurrence Of Three Grassland Bird Species In The Carden Plain Of Ontario, Alice L. Merondun, Ginny Moore, Ron Reid, Erica Nol

Ontario Birds

We measure changes in occurrence (i.e., presence/absence) of three grassland bird species in the Carden Plain, between 2001 to 2005 and 2015 to 2016, by comparing point count results of the 2001–2005 Ontario Breeding Bird Atlas (OBBA) to repeated point counts at the same sites in the more recent period. We examine associations between changes of occurrence and habitat change and protection status of the survey locations for the three most commonly occurring species of Ontario grassland birds (Bobolink, Dolichonyx oryzivorus; Eastern Meadowlark, Sturnella magna; and Savannah Sparrow, Passerculus sandwichensis), all of which have experienced population declines in Ontario of …

Predator Exclusion Grids Protect Common Terns From Avian Nest Predators At Presqu’Ile Provincial Park, Lake Ontario, Jennifer M. Arnold, Stephen A. Oswald, Donald J. Tyerman, Michael J. Barker Nov 2025

Predator Exclusion Grids Protect Common Terns From Avian Nest Predators At Presqu’Ile Provincial Park, Lake Ontario, Jennifer M. Arnold, Stephen A. Oswald, Donald J. Tyerman, Michael J. Barker

Ontario Birds

Common Tern (Sterna hirundo) breeding populations in inland areas of North America have experienced significant declines, particularly in the Canadian waters of the lower Great Lakes. Once home to two-thirds of the Great Lakes population, Presqu’ile Provincial Park maintained only a small breeding colony of Common Terns from the 1970s to the early 2010s. In 2008, a research program was started to understand the population status of this colony. This involved close collaboration between faculty at Penn State University and Ontario Parks staff, and identified poor reproductive success at this site. Although many factors contributed to this poor reproductive success …

Spring Migration Phenology, Abundance And Behaviour Of Little And Bonaparte’S Gulls At Oshawa Second Marsh, Lake Ontario, Ontario, 1992–2022, Tyler Hoar, D.V. Chip Weseloh, David J. Moore Nov 2025

Spring Migration Phenology, Abundance And Behaviour Of Little And Bonaparte’S Gulls At Oshawa Second Marsh, Lake Ontario, Ontario, 1992–2022, Tyler Hoar, D.V. Chip Weseloh, David J. Moore

Ontario Birds

The Little Gull (Hydrocoloeus minutus) is a rare gull in most of North America; however, in spring it is relatively numerous at several sites in Ontario, as it migrates with its much more numerous relative, the Bonaparte’s Gull (Chroicocephalus philadelphia). The primary objective of this study was to document the spring migration phenology, abundance and behaviour of the Little Gull and the Bonaparte’s Gull at Oshawa Second Marsh (OSM), Ontario. Pursuit flights, roosting flights and migration departures by Little Gulls are also reported. The study took place from late March to late May, 1992–2022, at OSM. This site consistently hosted …
