“…Regarding the growth rate of nestlings, ours are only the second calculations for Silver-beaked Tanager. Our rate (0.48) was very similar to that calculated by Oniki & Ricklefs (1981) for R. carbo in Manaus (0.50) and higher than those calculated for Multicoloured Tanager Chlorochrysa nitidissima in Colombia (Loaiza-Muñoz et al 2017) and White-winged Shrike-Tanager Lanio versicolor in Peru (Céron-Cardona et al 2018). Growth rate was similar but marginally higher than that calculated for Hauxwell's Thrush Turdus hauxwelli at the same study site .…”

British Ornithologists' Club meetings in 2020 As previously announced and owing to the Corvid-19 pandemic, the 2020 meetings programme has had to be substantially adjusted. The current situation is that Prof. Diamond's talk, in conjunction with the Linnean Society has been deferred, subject to his availability, until a date in 2021. It is also looking distinctly uncertain as to whether the 21 September meeting, including the Annual Review, will be able to proceed. Should it do so, Dr Beth Okamura has most kindly provisionally agreed to give her previously planned talk on How birds shape freshwater biodiversity on that date. The talk scheduled for 16 November, which again had been planned in conjunction with the Linnean Society at their premises, is intended to be by Professor Jon Fjeldså, Univ. of Copenhagen, on the subject of the evolution of passerine birds. This talk had been designed to celebrate the 1,000th evening meeting of the BOC but, should it go ahead, will now be slightly ahead of the anniversary given the forced cancellation of prior 2020 meetings! At present, we remain very hopeful that this event will occur on schedule, but it is clearly too early to be definitive on this point, so please keep checking the website https://boc-online.org/ for updates. Robert Prŷs-Jones Friends of the BOC The BOC has from 2017 become an online organisation without a paying membership, but instead one that aspires to a supportive network of Friends who share its vision of ornithology-see: http://boc-online.org/. Anyone wishing to become a Friend of the BOC and support its development should pay UK£25.

“…An improved understanding of the reproductive biology of this particular species may provide authorities the knowledge to make policies to protect this endemic species which is considered Endangered (EN) under the List of threatened species of Fauna and Flora in Panama (Mi Ambiente, 2016). Since Myadestes coloratus inhabits humid montane forest with dense cover epiphytes that are used to build nests, forest fragmentation and climate change can reduce the availability of nesting sites, compromising their nesting success (Gradstein, 2008;Loaiza-Muñoz et al, 2017). The present report of nests for this species provides a baseline for further studies on breeding ecology involving questions like nesting success, survival of both hatchings and nestlings, parental care, seasonality, and other factors which have been studied in other members of the genus Myadestes (Greeney & Halupta, 2008).…”

Here we present the first description of nests for the Varied Solitaire Myadestes coloratus, a regional endemic species (Panama and Colombia). We found two nests in Cerro Chucantí Natural Private Reserve (CCNPR), the first nest was seen on May 6, 2019 with three hatchlings inside and the second on May 9, 2020 with three eggs. The nests were constructed out of green mosses and foliaceus liverworts over tree trunks covered with moss, they were cup shaped, at 1.3 and 1.5 meters high. The GPS coordinates of the nests were (8° 47’44.8” N, 78°27’47.4 W, 1276 m) and (8° 48’09.5” N, 78°27’37.0 W, 1393 m) respectively. This report represents the first for this species which is under the Endangered (EN) category of Panama´s List of threatened species of Fauna and Flora by Ministerio de Ambiente.
