What the records say about Beausejour

210 bird species have been recorded within 6 mi of the centre of Beausejour (Manitoba) since 2010, across 8,327 public observation records shared through GBIF. The most recorded are American Crow, American Robin and Red-winged Blackbird.

Beausejour is backyard-bird country: 77% of the records here are small songbirds, doves, woodpeckers and the other birds that come to feeders and yard trees. American Crow, American Robin, Red-winged Blackbird and Common Raven make up the core of what you can expect at a feeder.

17 birds of prey are on record nearby, including American Kestrel, Red-tailed Hawk and Bald Eagle.

Records peak in May and are lowest in January — about 19.1 times as many in the busiest month. Part of that is birds (migrants and breeding arrivals), part is people: more birders are out in good weather, so treat the curve as activity, not a census.

Tyndall, 6 mi to the west, has fewer species on record (200 against 210). Birds logged far more often around Beausejour than there include Bald Eagle, Red-headed Woodpecker, Warbling Vireo and Northern Shoveler.

Daylight runs from 16 h 23 min at midsummer to 8 h 4 min at midwinter here. Sunrise is about 6:34 AM in mid-April and 5:15 AM in late June; the dawn chorus starts 30–60 minutes earlier.
