By 2002 we were seeing them a lot less regularly and the Double-barred Finch was the daily visitor to our garden instead. Of course we still have brilliant blue skies and 30c (86f) during the day, but the sun is setting at 5:20pm and the temperature soon drops off.

The talk described eBird’s origins in 2002 and traced its history as a project aimed at using “citizen science” to help researchers and conservationists learn more about birds.

Social monogamy is where one male and one female pair and share the responsibilities of nest building, incubation, and chick feeding (Jenni 1974, Owens 2002). Competition among females.
