What the records say about Saint-Tite

Saint-Tite 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, Blue Jay and Song Sparrow make up the core of what you can expect at a feeder.

12 birds of prey are on record nearby, including Turkey Vulture and American Kestrel.

Records peak in May and are lowest in January — about 48.5 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.

Hérouxville, 5 mi to the south-west, has more species on record (185 against 149).

Daylight runs from 15 h 52 min at midsummer to 8 h 33 min at midwinter here. Sunrise is about 6:04 AM in mid-April and 4:55 AM in late June; the dawn chorus starts 30–60 minutes earlier.
