Joe Keiper from VMNH discusses the collection at EMU.
Staff from the Virginia Museum of Natural history visited EMU to assist in evaluating the collections of the Hostetter Museum of Natural History.
Sparrowhawk
Accipiter nisus
Spioróg
Status: Common resident, with occasional winter visitors from Continental Europe.
Conservation Concern: Green-listed in Ireland. The European population has been evaluated as Secure.
Identification: A small bird of prey (raptor) with broad wings with blunt wing tips and a long tail. Small hooked bill suitable for eating meat. Tail is banded in all plumages with four or five bands. The sexes are different in size, the female is larger than the male. Sparrowhawks have barred underparts in all plumages, with the barring extending across the underwings, breast, belly and flanks. Males are bluish-grey above and often have orangey-brown barring on the breast, belly and underwing coverts; the rest of the barring is brown. Females are grey above with brown-grey barring on the underparts. Juvenile birds are dark brown on the upperparts with finely marked feathers; the underparts are coarsely and irregularly barred.
Similar Species: Goshawk, Kestrel
Call: The main call a rapid high pitched chattering, which is usually only heard in the breeding season.
Diet: Usually small birds which are taken when perched or in flight, sometimes after a long chase. Attacks with one or both feet, will pursue prey on foot. Sparrowhawks often utilize hedge rows or other cover, flying low on one side and then crossing over to other side to surprise its prey. Is a master of flying in woodland where it can fly through small gaps in branches pursuit of its prey, displaying great agility. Will use woodland edges, rides as well as any cover, especially cover that adjoins woodland. Will even pursue prey birds on foot over the ground.
Breeding: Probably the most common bird of prey in Ireland. Widespread in woodland, farmland with woods, larger parks and gardens. Nests in trees. Breeds throughout Ireland but is scarce in the west, where tree cover is low. Formally bird of woodland, it is now also found extensively in wooded farmland and will venture into urban gardens, where small birds attracted to bird feeders are taken, much to some peoples distress.
Wintering: Resident in Ireland. Can be seen throughout the country, although numbers will be low in the some parts of the west. Resident birds will be joined by wintering birds from Britain and Europe.
Where to See: Many people see these birds in their gardens, where they will be hunting on small birds. Can be difficult to spot in the countryside but will often give good views, when flying over head, where it may on 'prospecting' flights
Col. Dan Martin passed command of the U.S. Army Electronic Proving Ground to Col. Rob Barnhill in a ceremony on Brown Parade Field June 15, 2021. Maj. Gen. James Gallivan, commanding general of the U.S. Army Test and Evaluation Command, was the reviewing officer. Prior to the ceremony, Col. and Mrs. Martin were presented retirement awards. The ceremony concluded with a signature B Troop, 4th U.S. Cavalry (Memorial) Regiment pistol charge and a presentation of a cavalry saber to Col. Martin. (U.S. Army photo by Tanja Linton)

01 -15 June 2018: Our Association for Stimulating Know-how - ASK team did an evaluation of “Resilience Communities to Trafficking” project at Jagdalpur, Baster district in Chhattisgarh.
The project is implemented by Emmanuel Hospital Association and funded by Transform Aid International Australia.
The project is implemented in 6 blocks in 3 districts in 2 states: Baster in Chhattisgarh and Khunti & Palamu in Jharkhand.

Interest Research
The organism selected for study in Coyote Creek is a ladybug of the Family Coccinellidae. Ladybugs disperse mainly through flying using their wings and are found worldwide. The common American species, known as the seven-spotted ladybug, was native to Europe and was brought to America to control aphid populations. Ladybugs reproduce sexually and will store sperm for a few months before laying eggs that are usually number between one or two dozen. Adaptations of the ladybug are its aposematic coloration that warns predators off and its ability to secrete an oily fluid from its exoskeleton that deters predatory feeding.
Observations
Only a single population was found on the site near the creek area. The nearest breeding members reside on the same plant which occupies a space of around four feet. The distribution is clumped into one single area, although each member of the population is distributed randomly throughout this small space. The location of the ladybugs population is on the only flowering plant in the site which is expected since its food source of aphids is more likely to be found here than on any of the other plants which are mostly aquatic. This population is most likely a sink since the food and available plant life is highly limited for these organisms and does not have a high number of ladybugs residing within the population. Offspring from this small population most likely go to the nearby fields of wildflowers located just west of the creek where there is little human activity. Immigrants might come from this adjacent field and enter the creek system as they search for sources of food, but most likely do not stay as food is not abundant.
Calculations
According to the geometric growth model the estimated five ladybugs capable of reproduction should have a population of around 1200 in a 5 year time period. In 20 years the population should reach over 1 million. The population will most likely not experience this type of growth as resources are severely limited in this area for the particular location and most of the ladybugs will likely die off or migrate to more favorable areas in San Jose.
Literature
The ladybug population is related to a conservation effort and study mentioned in the SimUtext discussing allee effects. Researchers, including F. Courchamp, in 2011 were trying to save the Kakapo, a flightless endangered parrot in New Zealand. With only 131 birds left which are spread over several islands, the researchers were observing and documenting allee effects in the population. This phenomenon occurs when a small population size by itself decreases the population growth rate. The researchers concluded that allee effects are a crucial part of understanding population dynamics. The population of lady bugs is probably experiencing allee effects as the population size is incredibly small and difficultly mating will probably cause the population to disappear. Additionally, work by Lorne Wolfe in 2002 on alien invaders applies to this organism population. All of the ladybugs spotted were seven-spotted ladybugs which are native to Europe. Wolfe studied snowy campions and found that exotic species do better in the new environments because they can take advantage of new environments. In this area, most of the native species have been outcompeted and no native ladybugs were found near the creek. This is due to the idea that foreign introductions often out-compete natives by escaping their enemies back home and exploiting the new resources they find.
