I can add Northern Parula, Baltimore Oriole and several Catbirds to the Renwick list. Gary

I was first alerted by their calls and saw two pairs landing on the house. One male entered an apartment on the north side, and later perched in front of the opening for some time. I have posted a couple of foggy photos of the martins to the Cayuga Bird Club facebook page. Tree swallows were also perching on the bar above the house at times, and unfortunately, a pair of House Sparrows also appear to be using an apartment on the east side of the complex. Still - it is great to have Purple Martins at Stewart Park this year! It was a great morning at Stewart Park for other migrants too. I saw my first-of-year Eastern Kingbird at the swan pen, and Yellow-rumped Warblers, Warbling Vireo (thanks, Dave!) and Blue-gray Gnatcatchers. In Renwick Woods Northern Waterthrush, Yellow Warbler, Eastern Towhee and a Wood Thrush were singing, and a pair of Wood Ducks perched high in a tree. Good birding!
