What the records say about Carberry

175 bird species have been recorded within 6 mi of the centre of Carberry (Manitoba) since 2010, across 1,844 public observation records shared through GBIF. The most recorded are American Robin, Common Raven and American Crow.

Carberry is backyard-bird country: 61% of the records here are small songbirds, doves, woodpeckers and the other birds that come to feeders and yard trees. American Robin, Common Raven, American Crow and Red-winged Blackbird make up the core of what you can expect at a feeder.

15 birds of prey are on record nearby, including Red-tailed Hawk, Bald Eagle and Turkey Vulture.

Records peak in May and are lowest in December — about 56.1 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.

Shilo, 13 mi to the west, has a similar number of species on record (175 against 175). Birds logged far more often around Carberry than there include Ring-billed Gull, Northern Shoveler, Blue-winged Teal and Bufflehead.

Daylight runs from 16 h 21 min at midsummer to 8 h 6 min at midwinter here. Sunrise is about 6:46 AM in mid-April and 5:28 AM in late June; the dawn chorus starts 30–60 minutes earlier.
