Talk:Black skimmer

message: This bird has been labeled as "Threatened" by the local news, and a section of Daytona Beach, Florida was blocked off because one bird laid its egg on the beach.  I did a search on Google for more information to make sure this claim was valid, and it appears so.  I am not sure as to the exact status of the bird, but it is NOT of least concern.  The city of Daytona decided to block off a portion of its beach for the bird to lay its eggs, with signs saying not to disturb the animal, and this was due to a single pair of mates nesting on the beach near all of the tourist.  It takes approx. 2 months for the egg to hatch.  There has only been 3 pair of them spotted on the beach over the last few years.  I am not able to find out the exact status.  Please help by offering more information.

Russell Greenberg certainly has ornithology publications, but Google searches with that name and "Birds of North America" and "Sean Moore" turn up nothing.

Talk:Blue-winged warbler

message: I've been working on updating this page as it was just a very simple start. I'm working on fleshing out details and adding in line citations instead of a generic reference list at the bottom that leaves you guessing which facts came from which resource. 
I've added new information and citations as well as broke the article up into better and more standard sections in line with the other bird articles. 
Here are some things that need to to be done. Feel free to help out. 
1. Break into more detailed sections 
2. Clarify and inline the citation for the AOU name change in Taxonomy section 
3. Improve information about hybrids for Taxonomy section 
4. Add photo of Brewster's Warbler hybrid
5. Add photo of Lawrence's Warbler hybrid 
6. Write more detailed physical description including measurements.  
7. Add photo of female blue-winged warbler
8. Write more detailed description of breeding range. 
9. Write more detailed description of wintering range. 
10. Add a range map
11. Greater discussion of diet
12. Greater discussion of breeding habitat
 
13. Better description of call ideally with audio recording. 
14. Change "References" to "Footnotes"

thread_title: To do list

message: The following is an update to the taxonomy section that I am working on as part of the next update. 
The Blue-winged Warbler was one of the many species originally described by Linnaeus in his 18th century work, Systema Naturae, though the scientific name has changed several times. {{cite book | last=Linnaeus | first=Carl | authorlink=Carolus Linnaeus | title=Systema naturae per regna tria naturae, secundum classes, ordines, genera, species, cum characteribus, differentiis, synonymis, locis. Tomus I. Editio decima, reformata. | publisher=Holmiae. (Laurentii Salvii). | year=1758| page=187} The species epithet pinus was given by Linnaeus in 1766 but was a mistake as the original description of the species by was actually based on illustrations of "pine creepers" drawn by others. The two drawings actually depicted what we now call a Pine Warbler and Blue-winged Warbler. In 2010 the name was changed by the American Ornithologists Union to correct the error. Pine Warblers retained the species name pinus but the species epithet for Blue-winged Warbler was changed to cyanoptera.

Talk:Brown-headed cowbird

message: This was a well-written article that mostly focused on the Cowbird’s parasitic behavior. It gave a full description of the specie’s reproductive behavior (parasitizing on other birds), the host response to the Cowbird’s eggs, and even the Cowbird parents’ behavior after parasitizing other birds’ nests (they would frequently come back to check on their eggs, and if their eggs have been removed by the host, the Cowbird may retaliate by destroying the host nests or eggs!). Other behavioral traits of these birds are only briefly mentioned and remain underdeveloped (for example, courting behavior). However, the article never mentions the way in which the Cowbird’s parasitism is different from other bird’s (cuckoos and honeyguides) parasitism. Instead of ejecting the eggs or killing the host’s chicks, the young Cowbirds actually perform better when there are other host young! Also, it would be good to note that experimental findings have determined that cowbird young do best when they are in a nest with two other host nestlings.

Talk:Buff-bellied pipit

message: User:Wwcsig argues that the  old image is a thrush, not a pipit.  Behavior and habitat at the time the picture was taken were consistent with pipit, but none of this is visible in the image itself (and this wouldn't be the first time I have misidentified a bird), so I have removed it for an arguably more definitive version found at the commons.  I was about to begin removing all trace of the picture, but then noticed that many other wikis have picked up the image for use as a pipit as well.  It's hard to say how many better eye-balls than I have pondered the picture, but can all those people be wrong?  (Of course they can!)  So unless someone objects, the aforementioned delete will commence in a week, unless someone starts it going first (with no argument from me).  mdf 12:32, 21 September 2007 (UTC)
