the salt marsh common yellowthroat , ( geothlypis trichas sinuosa ) , is a subspecies of the common yellowthroat , a new world warbler .

the salt marsh common yellowthroat has experienced a dramatic 80 % decline from the early 20th century through 1976 .

it is a species of concern for protection in efforts to restore chelsea wetlands in hercules , california .

salt marsh common yellowthroat

this species exhibits a wide range of geographic variation in plumage and taxonomists have described many subspecies in their struggle to categorize this variation . it is a migrant through much of its range , although some populations are partially migratory or sedentary . two sedentary populations , the san francisco or salt marsh yellowthroat and the brownsville yellowthroat (

coye is a common brown - headed cowbird host . a study in michigan reported 10 of 22 nests parasitized ( stewart 1953 ) . in the central valley of california , 7 of 14 nests were parasitized ( geupel et al . 1995 - 1997 , draft progress reports ) .
san joaquin valley ( sjv ) bioregion : coye has been recorded on bbs routes in the northern sjv , but not in the southern portion . approximately 15 breeding territories were recorded along the san joaquin river and salt slough ( prbo 1997 ) . coye also was detected on incidental surveys as far south as the mendota wildlife area , fresno county . the status of coye in the southern portion of the sjv needs further investigation .
this inhabitant of thick , tangled vegetation ( particularly in wet areas ) is one of north america ' s most widespread warblers , breeding throughout the continental united states ( including part of alaska ) and in parts of all canadian provinces . the male ' s distinctive black mask and wich - i - ty wich - i - ty wich - i - ty song make it an easily identified warbler . first collected in what is now maryland , and described by carl von linné ( linnaeus ) in 1766 , the common yellowthroat was one of the earliest species of birds tobe described from the new world .
sierra nevada bioregion : bbs routes and reports of coye in inyo county indicate that it is a common migrant and breeder ( heindel unpublished ) . coye appear absent from the northern portion of this region . however , bbs routes have detected coye in the southern portion of this bioregion ( peterjohn ) .
pacific northwest bioregion : coye appears to be historically more common . they were recorded on 17 bbs routes from 1966 - 1985 whereas from 1986 - 1996 only 10 routes recorded coye . mist netting data indicates coye as a transient in this region and a fall migrant ( c . j . ralph , ibp ) .
i reviewed point count surveys ( provided by b . peterjohn ) from 1966 - 1985 and 1986 - 1996 to determine if differences existed in distribution . common yellowthroat ( coye ) were either seen or heard singing / calling during the breeding season at many locations throughout the state . coye were recorded in at least one location within each of the 10 bioregions in california . however , only one location in the sacramento valley bioregion had recorded coye . all other regions had > 2 locations . this is a compilation of all bbs routes in the state of ca . review rough maps with coye detected at stations . i highlighted all of the historic and current routes that detected coye ( see very rough maps with bioregion in black ) .
we have an opportunity in hercules to preserve the 12 acre chelsea wetlands near chelsea by the bay and hercules by the bay communities . the wetland is a vital part of our ecosystem . egrets once nested there and it remains the habitat of some endangered species . the past century took its toll on the chelsea wetland . as the area was developed , tons of soil was dumped in the wetland . a similar practice occurred throughout the country . by 1950 , an estimated 45 million acres , or 35 % , of all wetlands in america had been drained .
restoring the chelsea wetland has several benefits . by removing the unnatural soil in chelsea wetland , the water storage capacity will increase by four feet , thus helping to reduce flooding in nearby neighborhoods , as happened in pinole in 2006 . this is particularly important to the communities of chelsea by the bay and hercules by the bay .
a healthy wetland also prevents pollutants from running into the bay . ecologists call wetlands “the kidney” of the ecosystem because of the natural cleansing functions they perform . they do this by retaining sediments and toxic pollutants attached to the sediments . wetland plants also reduce algae blooms and fish kills .
restoring the chelsea wetland currently , the chelsea wetland turns dry and brown in the summer . a healthy wetland and creek would cycle water year round , providing a place for wildlife . native vegetation would return naturally or be reintroduced . some of the current goals of the restoration project include :
the city of hercules has committed to reviewing the county’s work on flood control to make sure that we are protected and that future efforts will not aggravate what is currently in place .
2012 update last year , the city of hercules finalized grant agreements with the california natural resources agency and the environmental protection agency and association of bay area governments . in all , the chelsea wetlands project has recieved several grants : $ 1 . 83 million from the proposition 84 is the california river parkways program ; $ 145 , 000 from the green infill clean storm water initiative ( epa / abag ) , $ 56 , 200 from the contra costa county fish and wildlife propagation fund and $ 40 , 000 from the san francisco foundation . the city of hercules has also contributed $ 128 , 000 , bringing the project total to over $ 2 . 1 million .
in februrary of 2012 , the city solicited request for proposals for ceqa and permit regulatory compliance for for the project . a request for proposals for final engineering design will also be made available in february .
the list of all grant recipients can be found on the natural resources agency website at : urltoken .
the city of hercules and their consultants have presented plans and answered question on the chelsea wetlands restoration at community workshops sponsored by the friends of pinole creek watershed . and the chelsea by the bay homeowners association has been actively involved with the city on this project . community involvement is a critical component of success for projects like this .

management status : ( g . t . sinuosa ) california species of special concern
this review is based on mist - netting information , bbs data , and expert opinion ( sources noted individually ) .
the following is a compilation of maps stations from 1989 - 1996 where coye have been recorded with accompanying breeding status ( institute for bird populations , d . desante , h . smith ) - lat / long of maps sites with coye breeding status ( table 1 ) . 25 of the 70 maps stations have captured coye ( ibp 1997 ) . coye attempted to breed at only 10 of these stations , and an occasional breeder at 3 stations ( ibp 1997 ) .
northeast bioregion : coye was recorded in five areas in the northeast bioregion from 1966 - 1996 . mist netting data confirms that coye breeds in this area . however , coye has not been recorded on bbs routes in the southwest portion of this bioregion ( this may be due to the topography ) . further investigation is warranted .
sacramento valley bioregion : coye is a confirmed breeder in this region . however , in the upper and lower sacramento and feather rivers , coye populations have decreased ( gains 1974 ) . data are inconclusive for the southern portion of this region .
bay / delta bioregion : confirmed breeder in the western portion of this region . also recorded on bbs routes throughout this region . the bay / delta bioregion supports the listed g . t . sinuosa subspecies .
central coast bioregion : according to recent bbs surveys , coye seem to be absent from the northern portion of this region . historically , bbs routes detected coye , but have failed in recent years . however , coye have been captured in mist nets in this area ( see table 1 ) .
mojave bioregion : coye seems to be absent from the eastern section of this region , whereas the western region reports numerous observations . b . kus indicated that only a few coye in highly optimal habitat exist near victorville along the mojave river . further investigation is warranted in this area .
evens et al . ( 1997 ) report 1 . 04 territories per hectare and 5 . 48 territories per km when design data is pooled ( i . e . , burned and unburned plots ) for g . t . sinuosa at point reyes national seashore . in michigan , home ranges vary from 0 . 3 - 0 . 7 ha ( stewart 1953 ) . in new york , coye were spaced 2 . 0 - 2 . 4 ha . in the san francisco bay , 0 . 2 - 2 . 0 ha spacing reported by foster ( 1977 ) .
woodrey and chandler ( 1997 ) indicate no significant difference between adults and immatures in timing of passage at any site studied . however , this varied between year and site . grinnell and miller ( 1944 ) indicate coye is a summer resident from mid - april until september in northern ca , and is a winter resident in central and southern ca . nevertheless , they are uncommon in ca during the winter months ( grinnell and miller 1944 ) .
sally and gleaner of insects , spiders , and caterpillers ( bent 1953 ) .
ground level to 3 m , but most commonly found between ground level and 0 . 6 m .
the nest contains dead grasses , leaves , ferns , etc . , and is lined with fine grasses and hair ( harrison 1978 , zeiner et al . 1990 ) .
the coye is found from sea level to at least 450 m in bishop , california . more information needed .
territory / home range size is reported as 0 . 4 - 1 . 2 hectares , suggesting there may be a minimum wetland size for breeding . however , more information is needed .
livestock grazing intensity , loss and destruction of wetland habitats ( airola 1990 ) . coyes are sensitive to destruction of wetlands and grazing , especially in certain parts of california . however , more data are needed to fully assess this issue , perhaps concentrating on the central valley where wetland loss is documented .
studies in the northern prairies of canada and north dakota have shown that incidental depredation may be harmful to ground - nesting birds ( vickery et al . 1992 ) . snakes , accipiters , and small mammals are known predators . coyes also are parasitized frequently ( bent 1953 , ehrlich et al . 1988 ) .

in front of my flat there are a number of mango trees . this moth is found quite often on the wall outside my flat . this is a great opportunity for me to test out the 40d with the tokina 100mm macro lens and the sigma 500 super dg flash . apparently the camera worked so well with the flash , even able to control the fec ( flash exposure compensation ) that i can find no difference in the exposure from this flash as compared to that of the 580ex . i believe this is the aporandria specularia ( large green aporandria ) whose caterpillars feed on the mango leaves . roger , please correct me if i ' m wrong . sorry les , i added this to your thread . should have started a new one . richard
hi richard , what i didn ' t comment on ( and should , as it ' s the most noticeable component of your original post ) - was the photo itself - the 100mm lens works a treat . crystal clear focus and plenty of d . o . f . with good colour rendition - i . e . correct white balance ( set to auto or to flashlight ? ) . looks like the sort of set up i should save up for ! incidentally , a . specularia is somewhat surprisingly not yet recorded in hong kong - maybe i should go to a mango grove ( if there is one in hong kong ) and set a light trap ! cheers , roger .

this is a lowland species found in both forested and disturbed or cultivated areas . during the mulu survey it was found more frequently in forest on limestone .
the larva was described fully and illustrated by moore ( 1847 ) and described in detail by bell ( ms ) and singh ( 1953 ) . it is slender , the body green , the head strongly bifid and with the true legs pale purplish red with darker spots . early instars are dark yellow .
the larva adopts a twig - like posture when at rest . bell mentioned association with ants of the genus oecophylla in some instances . it is a leaf ( singh ) and flower feeder ( kuroko & lewvanich , 1993 ) . the egg ( bell , ms ) is a thick , elongate - oval disc - shape with vertical sides . the top is slightly convex with a rim like a pie - crust , light green with the rim pure white . pupation is in a folded leaf secured by silk . host - plants noted by the authors above and in unpublished iie records are mangifera ( anacardiaceae ) , terminalia ( combretaceae ) , eugenia ( myrtaceae ) , areca ( palmae ) , rhizophora ( rhizophoraceae ) and nephelium ( sapindaceae ) .

thanks roger , for the lesson in english grammar and the id confirmation . richard
luckily i am not into moth photography , otherwise you will be correcting my english more than the moth ids .
thank you roger and lc . the setup i used is not that costly , roger i ' m pretty sure you can easily afford that . the canon 40d , the latest of the semi pro eos in the market , is around us1250 and the tokina 100mm macro is possibly one of the cheapest macro lens . coupled with the sigma 500 super dg flash , this whole setup should be under us $ 1800 . richard
easily afford
does not come to mind at that price - i have a monthly mortgage , two kids , car to run , mouths to feed , insurance , electricity , rates , & c . . . . . . and i don ' t get paid a princely salary doing wildlife conservation work . my wife works too and she has to cover her parents ( both retired with no pension ) costs as well . between us we just break even every month . saving for extras is a luxury at the moment . : ( so for the time being i ' ll have to hope my old coolpix5000 lasts a few more years .
good one , roger . puts some perspective into the extravagant spending that we see in singapore . but then again , in my line of work , i understand that people in the profession get paid 3x the singapore salaries .

this particular grammatical case is one that is rife in hong kong , and i ' ve had to correct several publications recently in which there were many instances of this mistake . i am well aware that for most members of this forum , english is a second language , so i hope that nobody takes offence if i offer a few notes on the mysteries of the english language when it is appropriate to do so ( i . e . in the context of aiding the lepidoptera discussion and not getting totally off topic - admins please let me know when you think i ' m on a serious tangent ! )
