eBird is an online database of bird observations providing scientists, researchers and amateur naturalists with real-time data about bird distribution and abundance.Originally restricted to sightings from the Western Hemisphere, the project expanded to include New Zealand in 2008, [1] and again expanded to cover the whole world in June 2010.
The Cornell Lab of Ornithology is a member-supported [1] unit of Cornell University in Ithaca, New York, which studies birds and other wildlife. It is housed in the Imogene Powers Johnson Center for Birds and Biodiversity in Sapsucker Woods Sanctuary.
The goal of the project was to produce an illustrated guide to all of the birds of the world; its first iteration was in the 17-volume Handbook of the Birds of the World, published by Lynx Edicions over the course of 22 years, from 1992 to 2014.
It includes more than 33 million photographs, 1.2 million audio recordings, and over two hundred thousand videos [1] covering 96 percent of the world's bird species. [2] There are an ever-increasing numbers of insect, fish, frog, and mammal recordings. The Library is part of Cornell Lab of Ornithology of Cornell University.
The orchard oriole is a small bird with a length of 5.9-7.1 inches, a weight of 0.6-1.0 ounces, and a wingspan of 9.8 inches. Adult males have chestnut or ochre underparts, while adult females and juveniles have olive-green upper parts and yellowish breasts and bellies.
The IBP codes include all birds in the covered area. The BBL codes involved human decisions (see Rules, below, for an example), and some codes are based on historical names which have since changed. The IPB codes are entirely rule-based. The BBL codes are not updated on a fixed schedule and become out of date as names of birds are changed.
The northern parula is one of the smaller North American migratory warblers, often being one of the smallest birds in a mixed feeding flock besides kinglets or gnatcatchers.
