[cayugabirds-l] Stewart Park birds

[Gary Kohlenberg]

I made a loop around the park after work today. There still weren’t 
many migrant birds at the swan pen, but I did find one Western Palm Warbler 
with a few Chickadees. There was one vociferous Fish Crow on the peninsula with 
white tag 06. 
Renwick Woods was going to be nothing but a nice walk until I found a 
feeding flock of 5 Chickadees, 4 Red-eyed Vireos, 2 Black-throated Green 
Warblers, Titmouse and 2 ORANGE-CROWNED WARBLERS and a Magnolia Warbler. There 
was a small mud puddle in the trail, the flock would alternate feeding / 
chipping and flying down to the puddle to drink. I was able to watch them for 
some time. Unfortunately the OCWA’s seemed to be the sulkiest of the group, but 
they did both appear together from the low brush to the puddle edge. 

happy birding,

Gary

[cayugabirds-l] K-M Marsh and MAC Monday Sept 15th 2014

[David Nicosia]

 
On Monday I took a trip to K-M Marsh viewing from Towpath rd. I didn't find
anything different than what others found on the
weekend. Shorebird numbers seem down now. I did not see the HUDSIONIAN
GODWITS this time. There were a bunch of dowitchers sp.
distant. I also re-found the lone STILT SANDPIPER that others had. This
bird was fairly "close" for Towpath Rd and easily identified.
I also had at least 3 BAIRD'S SANDPIPERS also fairly "close" among a bunch
of PECTORAL SANDPIPERS. There were also many
SEMIPALMATED SANDPIPERS and fewer LEAST SANDPIPERS. I found no white-rumped
sandpipers although there were many distant
peeps that I couldn't ID. There was still one lone SANDERLING. Both species
of yellowlegs continue. Except for many SEMIPALMATED PLOVERS
and at least 1 KILLDEER, there were no BLACK-BELLIED or AMERICAN
GOLDEN-PLOVERS.

There were also many swallows, including a few CLIFF SWALLOWS, many TREE
and BARN SWALLOWS, and fewer BANK SWALLOWS than a few weeks
ago. I didn't see any PURPLE MARTINs. I also found one AMERICAN PIPIT on
the mudflats.

At the MAC, there were many many SEMIPALMATED PLOVERS most of which were
juveniles. I also had many SEMIPALMATED SANDPIPERS, few LEAST SANDPIPERS,
and 1 lone WILSON'S SNIPE. There were also several GREAT EGRETs, one lone
GREEN HERON. There was also many GREEN-WINGED TEALS and a couple
BLUE-WINGED TEALS.
