Today, from 5:30am to 6:30am, I did not encounter any transient migrants in
the Hawthorn Orchard. It could have been that I was just there too early,
but I certainly suspect that all have picked up and migrated North with the
Southerly winds we've been having. The only potential transient migrant
Chris and Jessie's Sedge Wren was still in the same area on Hile School Road
this morning but very uncooperative. I only heard a few chips and one half
song. Lots of Alder Flycatchers were in this area, as well as Blue-winged
Warbler and Nashville Warbler. I heard some very odd loud
Another FOS yardbird today--Eastern Wood Pewee. Was around past couple of years
as well. Watched it drop out of the pear tree and catch insects just above the
grass, then resume it's perch in the tree and sing both songs (that I'm
familiar with, anyway) before flying off. Usually hear it
No shortage of Field Sparrows here either.

Thanks for Jay's good description of the location of the RED HEADED WOODPECKERS
in the woods at the south end of Aurora (SE cor. of NY Rt. 90 and Poplar Ridge
Rd.)!
I spent an hour and a half there today (~1-2:30 pm) and even saw the pair mate
on a branch of the large Sycamore tree near Rt.

Hi All,
I am wondering if anybody on the listserve is consistently hearing a singing
(cu-cu-cu) Black-billed Cuckoo in our area. I would like to try to get a
high-quality recording of this vocalization from this species to add to the
Macaulay Library collection. If you happen to hear this
I'm over in the Seneca Basin, but there seems to be one or two singing
males in each of the usual fields near our house in Ovid, FWTW.

A short listen to the chorus at the Salmon Creek FLLT preserve this
morning revealed the usual breeding species, and no migrants- and no
Ceruleans, as has sadly been the case for several years now. I did not
hear Acadian Flycatcher, but did not go up the side ravines.

This morning at Park Preserve there was no shortage of Field Sparrows. I hadn't
been there this year and the new trails really extend the fun.

I wasn't able to see or hear a Sedge Wren this morning. The only wren was a
House Wren for me. I did have my FOS BLACK-BILLED CUCKOO. I may try again later
today.

No shortage of Field Sparrows up here.
Miss the migrants, though. They have vamooshed as if by magic.
