Bird Studies Canada is looking for information on Bank Swallows in Ontario.
Did you see a colony of Bank Swallows this summer? Bird Studies Canada's Ontario Region is looking for information on Bank Swallow colonies. These highly colonial birds nest in eroding vertical banks along shorelines, rivers, and also in gravel/sand pits among other places. If you know of a Bank Swallow colony, we ask that you take a minute and visit Ontario Bank Swallow Casual Reporting Form<http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/bankswallow> and record information on the location, colony habitat type, and number of Bank Swallow burrows observed. Please note that you will need your location coordinates in latitude/longitude - tips on how to easily find these coordinates are available on the online data entry form. For more information on Bank Swallows and the Bird Studies Canada Ontario Bank Swallow Project visit Ontario Bank Swallow Project<http://www.birdscanada.org/research/speciesatrisk/bans/> .
