What the records say about Saint-Ubalde

Saint-Ubalde is backyard-bird country: 90% of the records here are small songbirds, doves, woodpeckers and the other birds that come to feeders and yard trees. American Crow, Blue Jay, Black-capped Chickadee and European Starling make up the core of what you can expect at a feeder.

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

Records peak in July and are lowest in November — about 215.5 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.

Saint-Marc-des-Carrières, 11 mi to the south-east, has more species on record (207 against 144). Birds logged far more often around Saint-Ubalde than there include Ruby-throated Hummingbird.
