What the records say about Saint-Liboire

181 bird species have been recorded within 6 mi of the centre of Saint-Liboire (Quebec) since 2010, across 18,250 public observation records shared through GBIF. The most recorded are American Crow, Black-capped Chickadee and European Starling.

Saint-Liboire is backyard-bird country: 84% 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, European Starling and Blue Jay make up the core of what you can expect at a feeder.

20 birds of prey are on record nearby, including Red-tailed Hawk, Turkey Vulture and Rough-legged Buzzard.

Records peak in May and are lowest in November — about 8.1 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.

Saint-Barnabé-Sud, 9 mi to the north-west, has more species on record (226 against 181).

Daylight runs from 15 h 42 min at midsummer to 8 h 41 min at midwinter here. Sunrise is about 6:07 AM in mid-April and 5:01 AM in late June; the dawn chorus starts 30–60 minutes earlier.
