What the records say about Cabano
241 bird species have been recorded within 6 mi of the centre of Cabano (Quebec) since 2010, across 141,701 public observation records shared through GBIF. The most recorded are American Crow, Black-capped Chickadee and American Robin.
Cabano is backyard-bird country: 70% 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, American Robin and European Starling make up the core of what you can expect at a feeder.
21 birds of prey are on record nearby, including Bald Eagle.
Records peak in May and are lowest in February — about 8.2 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.
Saint-Louis-du-Ha Ha, 5 mi to the west, has fewer species on record (232 against 241).
Daylight runs from 15 h 60 min at midsummer to 8 h 25 min at midwinter here. Sunrise is about 5:48 AM in mid-April and 4:36 AM in late June; the dawn chorus starts 30–60 minutes earlier.
