Ever wondered what happens AFTER you hit "submit" on an eBird report? This Wednesday at 7:30 pm, eBird reviewer Patrick Belardo will join us for a behind-the-scenes look at the eBird Review process. He'll also be answering your questions--and I have a feeling there will be plenty! For a Zoom invite, send an email to: <MontclairBirdClub1920...> This program is free and open to all. For more info about the Montclair Bird Club, visit us at www.montclairbirdclub.org. Hope to see you there!

Jersey Birders,
The New Jersey Bird Records Committee met on March 15, 2026, to review
reports of rare birds received in the second half of 2005. I have uploaded a
summary of the results to the NJBRC web site. I have also updated the New
Jersey State List and the New Jersey Review List. These can be reviewed and

The berm area bordering the impoundments at Manahawkin Wildlife Management Area will be temporarily closed to the public March 15 through April 15, 2026. A map of the closure area can be found on the <https://links-2.govdelivery.com/CL0/https:%2F%2Fdep.nj.gov%2Fnjfw%2Fconserv ation%2Fmanahawkin-wma-wetlands-restoration-project%2F/1/0101019cdd35b5c3-bd aec634-35cc-42e3-af07-3dc41ec3a201-000000/UkvjzmjI03rGNlXXvHlShC-AIC3sTN6q62 auh7y3vL0=448> Manahawkin WMA Wetlands Restoration website.
NJDEP Fish & Wildlife, Ducks Unlimited, Inc., and the New Jersey Waterfowl Stamp Advisory Committee are working to restore hydrology to 70 acres of coastal wetlands at Manahawkin WMA in Stafford Township, Ocean County. The project will replace outdated infrastructure with new water control structures, converting stagnant open water into resilient shallow coastal emergent and forested wetland habitat. This will benefit over 30 waterfowl species and improve storm surge protection, storm water retention, flood abatement, and ground water recharge. A vendor will replace a culvert and water control structure within the berm along the impoundments.

On Wednesday, March 10th at 7:30 pm the Montclair Bird Club will be joined by Dr. Daniel Lewis, for a program entitled "Stranger Things: Synthetic Biology and De-Extinction. Could science return birds from extinction? The Mohoidae were once (past tense) a taxon of endemic Hawaiian birds. There were five of them, a constant presence across most of the major islands; the last species went extinct in 1987. Is there a chance we could see these birds and others like them again? For a zoom invite, send an email to: <MontclairBirdClub1920...> This program is free and open to all. For more info about the Montclair Bird Club, visit us at www.montclairbirdclub.org.
