We continue to have 6 Common Redpolls coming to our feeders, as they have
done so all week. This is down from the 100+ we had earlier this winter,
which is itself interesting because we have never had redpolls before this
year. (Unfortunately, hard as we tried, we could never turn one of those
100+ into a Hoary.)

Subject: The Firefly Project
From: Don Salvatore <dsalvatore(AT)mos.org>
Date: 29 Mar 2008 2:12pm
Where Have All The Fireflies Gone?
Dear friends of the environment,
I am writing to ask you help.
The Museum of Science in Boston in joining with researchers from Tufts
University and Fitchburg State College to learn the status of fireflies
in Massachusetts. Fireflies, everyone~Rs favorite summer insect, have
been disappearing from much of their range. Or at least it seems that
way to many. Now, a new citizen science project, hosted by the Museum,
hopes to gather enough data from across the state to enable firefly
researchers to get a true picture of the State~Rs firefly population and,
if they are disappearing, what are the causes and what can be done to
preserve these fascinating insects.
The Firefly Project seeks to enlist people across the state to log on to
the Firefly website to report the occurrence of fireflies in their back
yard throughout the summer, as well as record information about their
particular habitat. The goals of this project are twofold. The first is
scientific. The more data collected by citizen scientists, the more
valuable it is to firefly researchers. The second is educational. The
site will contain a lot of information about the natural history of
fireflies as well as environmental factors within our control that may
affect their populations.
Some fun facts about fireflies:
* there are about 20 species of firefly in Massachusetts
* fireflies use their flash to locate a mate. Each species has a
very specific flash, both for the male and for the female.
* the males flash while flying. If the female is interested, she
responds with a flash from a perch on the ground or low shrub.
* One type of firefly can imitate the flash of other female
fireflies. She does this to lure in a male which she promptly devours.
* fireflies produce a toxin in their blood that makes them
unpalatable to most predators.
* the predatory firefly can not produce this toxin and must acquire
it through her prey.
* fireflies can not see the color blue. Therefore, a flashlight with
a blue filter is ideal for observing fireflies undisturbed at night.
As with any citizen science project, its strength is in numbers. The
more people who participate, the more valuable the study. If you are
interested in becoming a firefly citizen scientist, log on to
www.mos.org/firefly. And please pass the word on to anyone else who may
be interested.
The Museum is currently constructing the web site, but information about
the project should be appearing soon. It should be completed by firefly
season May through August.

Subject: Bird "house" question
From: "Martha Schwope" <schwopes(AT)msn.com>
Date: 29 Mar 2008 3:25pm
Someone gave me about ten "Roosting Pockets" for birds, made by Gardman.
They're pretty and cute little grassy woven jobs, about 7" by 6 by 6. The
hole is about 1 and a half inches across, too big for wrens, with no perch.
But I can't find directions for where to hang them, except "everywhere
around your yard."
Any suggestions? Height? Sun? Just experiment?

Watched an American Crow walking slowly with mincing steps along the
beach at low tide. It was very attentive to the sand around it then
suddenly dashed to one side and dug into the sand with it's bill. It
munched a bit and kept digging for some denizen it detected below the
surface, tossing sand side to side. After more rapid digging and
munching it pulled up a larger "food item" and ate it. Perhaps a sand
worm. It then resumed it's clam digging gig, walking slowly while
scanning the surface of the sand. I have not seen this behavior before.
This crow flew from a nest within100 feet of Short Beach, Nahant.
No, it wasn't a Fish Crow.
Best,

Hello Massbirders,
On a more January-like day today, I led a Athol Bird and Nature Club
birding trip, generally following the Millers River to the

Nonetheless fun was had by all. Here's the list of most bird
highlights from the field trip, with Bohemian Waxwings stealing the
show today.

Subject: 200 Bohemian Waxwings, 1 Barnacle Goose,
Northfield
From: David Mako <massmakos(AT)yahoo.com>
Date: 29 Mar 2008 7:34pm
At 5 pm today, more than 200 Bohemian Waxwings were seen in the
roadside orchard across the street from mailbox #260 along Rt 63 in
Northfield (between Northfield Mtn and Rt 10). Also present were at
least 80 cedar waxwings.
There were not many geese at Bennett Meadow at 5:15 but the numbers
began to build after that. At 6:20pm, the barnacle goose was seen as
it took off from the flock of Canada geese on the EAST side of the CT
River and south of Rt 10. It flew by itself for several minutes and
then resettled with the flock of Canadas. Also seen in the area were a
phoebe, a kestrel and a peregrine falcon that made an unsuccessful pass
at a wood duck.
Good birding,

Subject: Bolton Flats 3/29/08
From: Strickland Wheelock <skwheelock(AT)yahoo.com>
Date: 29 Mar 2008 9:01pm
I had a chance to bird Bolton Flats Sat[3/29] in the
cold, windy conditions - as one could guess Knee high
boots were a necessity. There were volumes of robins,
killdeers & blackbirds around the fields.
Some of the interesting birds were:
20 Rusty Blackbirds - scattered everywhere[probably
many more]
5 Meadowlarks
5 Snow Buntings mixed in large flocks of Horned Larks
100 Green-winged Teal
18 Wood Ducks
2 male Harriers plus 1 Coopers & 1 Sharp-shinned Hawks
3 Snipe
2 Bluebirds
One hunter was shooting crows which is legal but
absolutely doesn't make any sense - they just leave
the birds - no one eats them - I will contact the
Wildlife & Fisheries to see if this antiqued law can
be changed.

Had a nice afternoon birding Great Meadows. The Tree Swallows were in good

there were 3 Rusty Blackbirds in the woods along the river.

Also, while driving through Concord, I noticed lots of American Robins
feeding on lawns. Don't forget to look through these flocks at this time of
year. There could be Fieldfares, Redwings, or something even more exciting!
