Hi Larry,
I think the North American Bird Phenology Program that I have been helping with is also hoping to add to the data that illustrates how the migrations of birds have changed over the years.

I didn’t know about the Blog Action Day, but it looks like it was an interesting event.

Hi Larry,
Very interesting post. Being a scientist, I’m all the time questioning the why, you probably know that! I guess nobody can deny the climate change, but we also know two things: human activity might affect the climate, and the climate has changed over the past thousands year on a regular bases with very cold periods (Ice ages) and warm period… It is rather difficult to assess the effect of human activity of global climate change even if I believe its affecting it… But yes most of the species are increasing their distribution. For example, here, in Iceland a lot of new breeding species have been noticed the last two years, such as common crossbills, European robin and European siskins!! Quite ncredible!
