What the records say about Haileybury

232 bird species have been recorded within 6 mi of the centre of Haileybury (Ontario) since 2010, across 67,293 public observation records shared through GBIF. The most recorded are American Crow, Ring-billed Gull and Black-capped Chickadee.

Haileybury is backyard-bird country: 64% of the records here are small songbirds, doves, woodpeckers and the other birds that come to feeders and yard trees. American Crow, Black-capped Chickadee, Common Raven and American Robin make up the core of what you can expect at a feeder.

19 birds of prey are on record nearby, including Bald Eagle, Turkey Vulture and American Kestrel.

Records peak in May and are lowest in February — about 9.5 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.

Temiskaming Shores, 5 mi to the north-west, has a similar number of species on record (233 against 232).

Daylight runs from 15 h 58 min at midsummer to 8 h 27 min at midwinter here. Sunrise is about 6:31 AM in mid-April and 5:20 AM in late June; the dawn chorus starts 30–60 minutes earlier.
