Abstract

Correlational ecological niche models have seen intensive use and exploration as a means of estimating the limits of actual and potential geographic distributions of species, yet their application to explaining geographic abundance patterns has been debated. We developed a detailed test of this latter possibility based on the North American Breeding Bird Survey. Correlations between abundances and niche-centroid distances were mostly negative, as per expectations of niche theory and the abundant niche-centre relationship. The negative relationships were not distributed randomly among species: terrestrial, non-migratory, small-bodied, small-niche-breadth and restricted-range species had the strongest negative associations. Distances to niche centroids as estimated from correlational analyses of presence-only data thus offer a unique means by which to infer geographic abundance patterns, which otherwise are enormously difficult to characterise.

Keywords: Abundance; ecological niche centroid; estimation; geographic distribution.

Last Call with Andrew Vitz, state ornithologist

Flu season may be almost past for humans but for birds it’s in full swing, with about 35.52 million birds affected nationwide, according to the USDA. While domestic farm birds are among the most at risk, biologists are also concerned about the effect on birds of prey, particularly bald eagles. The infection rates for our national bird has been steadily climbing. This is bad news for Worcester County on both fronts, with many residents having backyard chicken coops as well as a recovering population of eagles. State ornithologist Andrew Vitz with Mass Wildlife, whose office is based in Westborough, sat down with Last Call to discuss how this national issue is affecting our local feathered friends. 

Have there been any cases recorded in Massachusetts?

You’d think that would be a straightforward question to answer but it’s complicated by preliminary and final results. We have quite a few preliminary positive cases that are still being analyzed, but with that said, we have 13 individuals that have been confirmed as positive for the H1N1 variant — it’s a bunch of geese more than anything, as well as some shore birds. We do have one red tailed hawk and a turkey vulture. However, we have a number of different species, including raptors, in the preliminary list and every week there are more birds being tested.

What’s the difference between preliminary and final?

Any samples we get that are suspicious initially go to Tufts. If they test positive, that’s a preliminary and it goes on to the federal lab in Iowa, which is overwhelmed, for a final confirmation. Unfortunately, that means there’s a long gap between the preliminary positive and the final result that can go on for weeks. 

Why are bald eagles more at risk?

Bald eagles seem particularly susceptible to this. What we think is going on here, is that bald eagles are scavenging birds in the winter and spring months when food is scarce. Like I said, geese have been hit hard by this virus, and a sick or dead goose would look awfully tempting to an eagle, so they’re ingesting a more concentrated form of the virus.

Right now, there aren’t any cases in the state but there were at least three in Vermont six days ago and one in New Hampshire. 

So do eagles scavenge more than other raptors?

Yes, they’re more of a scavenger than most other raptors and the reason they test positive is the same reason as turkey vultures, who are testing positive in large numbers. Both species scavenge more than other raptors. In fact, other species like coopers or red tailed hawks seldom scavenge. 

Eagle populations are just starting to recover in Massachusetts and if the virus flares up here, would it jeopardize that recovery?

I will say that here in Massachusetts, we are seeing an uptick in the number of active nests this year so despite the potential damage from the virus, we’re so far seeing a rise in the general population.

How do you track cases?

We have been working closely with permitted wildlife rehabilitators, so when sick or dead birds come in, we’ve been working with them to get samples in for testing. They’ve been really instrumental in figuring out where these impacts are happening. A lot of birds are asymptomatic when they have this virus and a good number of them have been passively sampled and tested positive. 

Is there any way to rehabilitate? 

There haven’t been a lot of attempts at rehabilitation. If a bird is highly suspect or positive, it spreads too easily, and the rehabilitators will just euthanize it to limit spread. If they’re highly symptomatic, there are neurological effects so many wouldn’t survive at that stage. 

Even if a valuable species tests positive, but is asymptomatic?

Potentially, but it would have to be a case-by-case basis. But at the population level, we don’t think this is going to have a big impact and we think this is the case with other wild species as well. The concern is largely with domestic birds but nonetheless we have a lot of backyard as well as industrial flocks, so we’re definitely concerned with those groups and trying to limit the spread. 

What advice would you give to backyard chicken farmers?

For backyard flocks, you’re going to want to keep your domestic birds separate from any wild birds. You want to avoid attracting wild birds to your yard. Maybe even a bigger concern is if you have a couple kids at the school playing soccer and there’s goose droppings at the field, that could be brought back to your birds. You might want to keep your outside shoes separate — this virus survives for a substantial amount of time that can be measured in weeks. However, the hope is that as summer arrives, the avian flu doesn’t do well in the warmer and drier conditions. I will say, the recent strain we’re dealing with, we’re not entirely sure but it will probably decrease dramatically. This strain has been in Asia and Europe for over a year now, so it has survived at least one summer and come back in the fall. Most evidence indicates that it was brought over by a wild bird. 

Have there been any outbreaks in Worcester county chicken coops?

No, just a single incident in Berkshire County so at this point we’re keeping our fingers crossed. It seems like the number of symptomatic wild birds has been declining over recent weeks so we’re hoping that trend continues.

Bird migration in Alaska – Alaska Public Media

Bird migration is one of the natural wonders of the world.  Every spring millions of birds stream into Alaska from all over the globe to feed, mate, and raise their young. Their stories include a hummingbird’s journey to Florida and back, a whimbrel’s commute to and from Chile, and the northern wheatear trip from Africa. Their ability to navigate and endure makes them the ultimate endurance athletes. Dan Ruthrauff, a USGS wildlife biologist with the Alaska Science Center, discusses bird migration biology.  We’ll also learn about some of the shorebird festivals in Alaska including the Kachemak Bay Shorebird Festival with Melanie Dufour.

Eric Bork, or you can just call him “Bork” because everybody else does, is the FM Operations Manager for KSKA-FM. He oversees the day-to-day operations of the FM broadcast. He produces and edits episodes of Outdoor Explorer, the Alaska-focused outdoors program. He also maintains the web posts for that show. You may have heard him filling in for Morning Edition or hosting All Things Considered and can still find him operating the soundboard for any of the live broadcast programs. After escaping the Detroit area when he was 18, Bork made it up to the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, where he earned a degree in Communications/Radio Broadcasting from Northern Michigan University. He spent time managing the college radio station, working for the local NPR affiliate, and then in top 40 radio in Michigan before coming to Alaska to work his first few summers. After then moving to Chicago, it only took five years to convince him to move back to Alaska in 2010. When not involved in great radio programming he’s probably riding a bicycle, thinking about riding bicycles, dreaming about bikes, reading a book, or planning the next place he’ll travel to. Only two continents left to conquer!

Pocket Monsters | Pokemon – All Media Types

About a meta, angsty LiveJournal fusion of Misty/May/Dawn/Serena who feels like she’s blown her shot at being really famous and getting it on with Ash. Waaah.

You know that one coworker who can’t stop talking about how she used to have it better decades ago, despite a steady job and a social life? That’s Dismay, who thinks she’s older than she actually is. (Kinda like Ash.)

Or you know that one voice actor who shows up to every comic-con, trapped into making money off your childhood when they should’ve been a famous singer or Oscar-winning actor?

Meet Dismay, Ash’s former companion on Pocket Monsters, the Kantonese show that was everywhere when you were growing up, encouraging kids to spend money in hopes of becoming the best, like no one ever was. Replaced by producer demands to “keep the show fresh”, she realized that all that time running up and down Kanto was the best years of her life. Now a corporate coordinator for Silph Co., the same company that produced Pocket Monsters, she spends her 9-to-5 dispatching Pokemon Coordinators and setting up Contests… and wishing she was back in the field, back in the spotlight, and back in the arms of the only person she loved.

RWBY – Works | Archive of Our Own

Ozpin and Salem were both cursed by the gods, and agents their advice, they fell in love once again, but this time, they had children. Four little girls gifted with magic like they were before everything happened, yet, what if magic was not the only thing they gained from their parents? What if they gained the curse as well, yet it evolved so that they are with their host from its birth and only show if needed? Like, say the host’s life is put in constant danger so the Daughter’s magic slowly seeps into the host throughout its life not only offering protection, but also their magic, and on the rare occasion, the Daughter acts like Ozpin dose to Oscar.
That’s what we’re exploring here. RWBY holds the souls of Ozma and Salem’s daughter’s and slowly as life gets worse and worse, they slowly become one.
How will Ozpin react to the host of one of his daughters dating his host? Or, even his children still being around? What about Salem? Will this change how the war goes or is history doomed to repeat it’s self?
