What the records say about Noyan

254 bird species have been recorded within 6 mi of the centre of Noyan (Quebec) since 2010, across 170,103 public observation records shared through GBIF. The most recorded are Red-winged Blackbird, American Robin and American Crow.

Noyan is backyard-bird country: 69% of the records here are small songbirds, doves, woodpeckers and the other birds that come to feeders and yard trees. Red-winged Blackbird, American Robin, American Crow and Black-capped Chickadee make up the core of what you can expect at a feeder.

21 birds of prey are on record nearby, including Turkey Vulture, Osprey and Bald Eagle.

Records peak in May and are lowest in January — about 16.0 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.

Lacolle, 3 mi to the west, has fewer species on record (246 against 254). Birds logged far more often around Noyan than there include Swamp Sparrow and Least Flycatcher.

Daylight runs from 15 h 38 min at midsummer to 8 h 45 min at midwinter here. Sunrise is about 6:10 AM in mid-April and 5:05 AM in late June; the dawn chorus starts 30–60 minutes earlier.
