Ontario. They are now found throughout the eastern part of the Lindsay district. The defoliation surveys by the Canadian Forestry Service revealed that the area of moderate to severe defoliation of gypsy moth has increased significantly in, Northumberland County, especially in the area south and cast of Rice Lake. What to Look For: The gypsy moth goes through several forms in its life. From mid-September, on, look for fuzzy: buff-coloured egg masses that resemble pieces of chamois. The ever-hungry caterpillars, caterpillars, which appear in late April and May, arc hairy and grow to about six. centimetres in length. They are recognizable by the double rpws-of dots along the back-five pairs of blue and six pairs of red. Adult moths begin to emerge in late July. The males are brownish-tan, , with small bodies and well developed wings. The female is almost white, with black markings on the wings. It is much largpr than (he male and cannpl fly- Where to Look: egg masses may be. found on tree trunks, branches# under rocks, on fences, or just aboi that's kept outside.

Ofi ta . m;ih c'Wti i'iu WOODS, WATER AND WIDLIFE By Marion Strebig The Big Bird Book: There is a new kind of bird book available. Five years in the making, it is a concentrated picture obtained over that five years of distribution and breeding range of each of the nearly 300 species which nest in Ontario. Ontario. The book, sponsored jointly by the Federation, of Ontario Naturalists and The- Long Point Bird Observatory, is the Atlas of the Breeding Birds ot Ontario. More than 1300 people tramped or canoed through most areas ot this vast province to provide the first real inventory of the avian population ' of Ontario. Following the pioneering work of the The Atlas of Breeding Birds in Britain and Irfeland (1976), the atlas editorial committee divided the southern section of the province in- 'to 10 x 10 km squares and northern Ontario into 100 x 100 km blocks. After coordinators had assessed the habitat and estimated the number of species likely to be in the squares, the field workers attempted to establish records of breeding, evidence for at least 75 percent of these species. In the large blocks, many of which were inaccessible except except by foot or canoe, the goal was to increase knowledge of bird distribution in this little-known area by covering at least major habitats in each block. Each species recorded in southern Ontario receives two pages in the Atlas. On the first page, there is a description of the bird's habits and its preferred nesting sites, and, on the facing page, maps ot both southern Ontario and the whole province marking distribution and population density. Such a record of distribution makes this an indispensable indispensable accompaniment to a good field guide like Peterson's A ' Field Guide to the Birds. It will pro foliage and keep Ihe trees green and growing in high value Crown forest areas; and 3. "Good neighbour" areas - where Crown land abuts private land, the Good Neighbour Program provides that the Ministry of Natural Resources will treat a 120 metre buffer zone of Crown land adjacent to private property, if the landowner landowner sprays his own property. Private Land Under the Co-operative Gypsy Moth Spray Program, financial and logistical assistance is available to eligible private landowners. Contact Contact your local county office for details. Spraying of private land may be done either by contract between a landowner and a commercial applicator, applicator, or as part of the Counties Co-operative Spray Program. When it comes to Printing , Call-the ORONO WEEKLY TIMES 9836301 vide quick reference for'experienced birders and basic information for those puzzling over a new bird in the garden or at the cottage. Any uncertainties about whether you actually actually could have seerl a Caspian tern on Georgian Bay can be-resolv- ed by consulting the distribution map opposite the. account of the Caspian tern. Using the Atlas it is possible to make a list of species one might see while travelling in any . area of the province. The Atlas also gives some information information on the relative abundance of any species. Mike Cadman, one of the Atlqs editors, tells the story of one of the graphics people working on the Atlas'who was examining the map) showing the" distribution of the indigo bunting. It was marked in nearly every square in',southern Ontario. Ontario. He couldn't believe it. "I've only ever seen one in my whole life," he marvelled. The Atlas speculates that modifications in habitat may have encouraged certain species. For instance, instance, fhe ruby-throated hummingbird, hummingbird, with a high concentration of breeding records along the southern-margin of trté Canadian Shield in cottage country,,may owe its relative abundance to clearing for hydro lines, cottages and pads, as well as to the proliferation of hummingbird feeders. " The Atlas also helps cbnfirm one's own, observation's which is always 1 gratifying.'For instance, the pileated woodpecker, harried by trophy hunters, logging, and forest fires, was a rare sighting in the Muskoka/Hilburton area when I was young, 40 years agoi Lately it has' returned to.ocpupy much o/ its former range. The astounding speed with which the house finch is >> viuiiiu.' in . southern Ontario is coni irnted by ihe -Atlas. * There wer-c some surprises even tin the veteran birders. No one expected expected to find such a high population population of screech owls in southern Ontario Ontario or canvaisbacks nesting at Luther Lake. The small pen and ink drawings of each species add another dimension dimension tp the pleasi% of the book. Scientifically accurate, the drawings are often art in the sense of having caught- for an instant the essence of the bird. Anyone fascinated by birds must have this book.
