Hi All: Recently Mike Cadman solicited photos for the forthcoming Atlas CD. The response was terrific. Thank you one and all for the donation of your excellent photos. Many will be used in the CD. The CD will be available in the fall so that you can all practice with it over the winter.
My objective is to have at least 2 to 5 pictures of each bird showing the male, female and nest wherever possible. For some birds e.g. hawks, swifts, etc it would also be nice to have flight shots. Here is a list of the pictures I still need (I have at least one shot of each but would like more): Horned Grebe Double Crested Cormorant Ruddy Duck Mute Swan American Wigeon Cinnamon Teal Greater Scaup Lesser Scaup Long-tailed Duck Surf Scoter Cattle Egret Yellow-crowned Night Heron Cooper’s Hawk Golden Eagle Grey Partridge**** Ring-necked Pheasant Willow Ptarmigan Greater Prairie Chicken Bobwhite Yellow Rail King Rail Virginia Rail Sora Purple Gallinule**** Hudsonian Snipe Whimbrel Solitary Sandpiper Short-billed Dowitcher Semipalmated Sandpiper Least Sandpiper Pectoral Sandpiper Dunlin Stilt Sandpiper Red-necked Phalarope American Golden Plover Semipalmated Plover Piping Plover Great-black Backed Gull Glaucous Gull Little Gull Caspian Tern Arctic Tern Forster’s Tern Black Tern Parasitic Jaeger Red-throated Loon Pacific Loon Common Loon Rock Dove Black-billed Cuckoo Barn Owl Eastern Screech Owl Common Nighthawk Chuck-will’s Widow Chimney Swift Three-toed Woodpecker Black-backed Woodpecker Olive-sided Flycatcher Acadian Flycatcher Willow Flycatcher Black-billed Magpie White-eyed Vireo Yellow-throated Vireo Philadelphia Vireo Veery Gray-cheeked Thrush Wood Thrush Sedge Wren Bewicks Wren Winter Wren Cliff Swallow Boreal Chickadee American Pipit Hoary Redpoll Northern Parula Kirtland’s Warbler Bay-breasted Warbler - Male Ovenbird Louisiana Waterthrushe Kentucky Warbler Connecticut Warbler Mourning Warbler Yellow-bellied Chat Smith Longspur Nelson’s Sharp-Tailed Sparrow LeConte’s Sparrow Henslow Sparrow Field Sparrow Lark Sparrow Eastern Towhee Summer Tanager Dickcissel Eastern Meadowlark Rusty Blackbird Brewer’s Blackbird Brown-headed Cowbird The **** items we are totally in need of i.e. we have no photos of them. It makes no difference whether the bird was photographed in Ontario or elsewhere. I would like good sharp pictures. Some of the needed photos are on the Ontbird web site. Can the photographers please send them to me (it would save me a great deal of time as I have to find out your e-mail, contact you, get your permission and download them!) Please I do not want any hand-held shots. If possible, please add your name on the photo together with any credits you may wish and send them to me. Thanks a million. All contributors will receive a free CD whether they are Atlassers or not. Thanks and happy birding.
