Examples of "hermit_thrush_catharus_guttatus"
The
hermit
thrush
("
Catharus
guttatus
") is a medium-sized North American thrush. It is not very closely related to the other North American migrant species of "Catharus", but rather to the Mexican russet nightingale-thrush.
The state bird is the
hermit
thrush
("
Catharus
guttatus
"). This was adopted in 1941. The bird was only designated after debate in the legislature; though the hermit thrush is found in all of 14 counties and has a distinctive sweet call, it leaves the state during the winter for its yearly southward migration. Many legislators favored the blue jay ("Cyanocitta cristata"), crow or flying squirrel.
Over 120 species of land birds have been recorded at the refuge, with over 72 nesting. Some of those include great crested flycatcher ("Myiarchus crinitus"), tree swallow ("Tachycineta bicolor"),
hermit
thrush
("
Catharus
guttatus
"), black-throated green warbler ("Dendroica virens"), scarlet tanager ("Piranga olivacea"), and others. Forests, woodlands, and swamps surrounding refuge salt marshes also provide habitat for many raptors. Many migrating raptors use forested areas next to marshes as hunting perches and feeding areas. Sharp-shinned hawk ("Accipiter striatus"), Cooper's hawk ("Accipiter cooperii"), and broad-winged hawk ("Buteo platypterus") have nested in forested habitat on the refuge. Northern goshawks ("Accipiter gentilis") and red-tailed hawks ("Buteo jamaicensis") nest in the area. During migration (primarily autumn), many raptors move through the refuge. Northern harriers are the only raptor species thought to breed in the estuarine communities of the refuge.
The Athabasca Plain ecoregion in the Boreal Shield provides breeding grounds for the Bohemian waxwing ("Bombycilla garrulus"), white-winged crossbill ("Loxia leucoptera), Cape May warbler ("Dendroica tigrina"), Canada goose ("Branta canadensis") and blackpoll warbler ("Dendroica striata). In the south west area of the Boreal Shield ecozone lays the Churchill River Upland which has the second highest population of bald eagles ("Haliaeetus leucocephalus"). This Upland area is home to waterfowl, such as the common loon ("Gavia immer"), red-breasted merganser ("Mergus serrator"), as well as other ducks, and geese on the many lakes of the region. The raven ("Corvus corax"), spruce grouse, gray jay ("Perisoreus canadensis"), Connecticut warbler ("Oporornis agilis"), northern three-toed woodpecker ("Picoides dorsalis"), osprey ("Pandion haliaetus") and hawk owl ("Surnia ulula") can be sighted in the boreal forests. The Mid-Boreal Upland ecoregion features these characteristic birds: white-throated sparrow ("Zonotrichia albicollis"), red-tailed hawk ("Buteo jamaicensis"), American redstart ("Setophaga ruticilla"), bufflehead ("Bucephala albeola"), ovenbird, ("Seiurus aurocapillus") and
hermit
thrush
("
Catharus
guttatus
"). The ruffed grouse ("Bonasa umbellus"), Canada warbler ("Wilsonia canadensis"), ruby-crowned kinglet ("Regulus calendula") and white-breasted nuthatch ("Sitta carolinensis"), American white pelican ("Pelecanus erythrorhynchos") are common sightings in the Mid-Boreal Lowland ecoregion.
There are also over 180 species of birds, including at least 81 nesting species. Among these there are 12 species of raptors and 34 species of aquatic birds. Coniferous forests are frequented by ruby-crowned kinglet ("Regulus calendula"), the Tennessee warbler ("Oreothlypis peregrina"), the Nashville warbler ("Oreothlypis ruficapilla"), the magnolia warbler ("Dendroica magnolia"), the
hermit
thrush
("
Catharus
guttatus
"), the grosbeak ("Hesperiphona vespertina") and the dark-eyed junco ("Junco hyemalis"). Mixed forests are occupied by the ruffed grouse ("Bonasa umbellus"), the blue jay ("Cyanocitta cristata"), the black-capped chickadee ("Poecile atricapillus") and the purple finch ("Carpodacus purpureus"). The ovenbird ("Seiurus aurocapilla"), the black-throated blue warbler ("Dendroica caerulescens"), the veery ("Catharus fuscescens"), the red-eyed vireo ("Vireo olivaceus"), the eastern wood pewee ("Contopus virens") and the sapsucker ("Sphyrapicus varius") inhabit the hardwood forests. The most common raptors observed are ("Pandion haliaetus") the broad-winged hawk ("Buteo platypterus"), the barred owl ("Strix varia") and the great horned owl ("Bubo virginianus"). Aquatic areas servs as nesting habitat for the common goldeneye ("Bucephala clangula"), the merganser ("Mergus merganser"), the black duck ("Anas rubripes") and finally the common loon ("Gavia immer"), which is the emblem of the park. The park includes eight species at risk, the whip-poor-will ("Caprimulgus vociferus"), the nighthawk ("Chordeiles minor"), the chimney swift ("Chaetura pelagica"), the olive-sided flycatcher ("Contopus cooperi"), the Canada warbler ("Wilsonia canadensis"), the peregrine falcon ("Falco peregrinus") and the rusty blackbird ("Euphagus carolinus").
