[cayugabirds-l] Field Sparrows, Park Preserve (Baldwin Tract)

2015-04-21 Thread Nari Mistry
Last Sunday morning (April 19), Gin and I took a walk around the FLLT 
Park Preserve S.(Baldwin Tract) on a beautiful morning. On the Blue 
trail in the first field we heard two Field Sparrows singing, one from 
each side. Other notable birds: both Kinglets, a  male YB Sapsucker in 
really bright plumage drumming loudly, a possible Pine Warbler (not 
seen.) No /Louisiana Waterthrush/ seen or heard down by the Creek -- 
both steep banks of the ravine still had lots of blue ice, making for a 
wondrous scene in filtered sunlight.

[cayugabirds-l] Goetchius meadowlark

2015-04-21 Thread Marie P. Read
The highlight of a brief trip to the Goetchius Preserve this morning was a 
singing Eastern Meadowlark. I know they've nested there in past years...let's 
hope so again.

And re. the siskin thread, I still have several Pine Siskins at my feeders too, 
joining the molting America Goldfinches, Purple Finches etc.

[cayugabirds-l] sisk-invasion/Towhee song

2015-04-21 Thread Donna Scott
I have had 4 Pine Siskins at my feeders for weeks. 
Sunday I saw my FOY E. Towhee singing a variant song - he was not drinking 
your tea. Song rather like the last song (variant) in the audubon bird app.

[cayugabirds-l] Salt Point Birds

2015-04-21 Thread bob mcguire
A walk around Salt Point this morning turned up a pair of BLUE-GRAY 
GNATCATCHERS, foraging and calling “spee” to one another. Most of the nest 
boxes appeared to be occupied by Tree Swallows - until I noticed House Sparrows 
commanding two of them. 

Half a dozen Barn Swallows were flitting over the creek, joined by a single N 
Rough-winged Swallow. Lots of Song Sparrows, a couple of Northern Flickers, and 
a distant pair of Tufted Titmice. No other sparrows, warblers (no Yellow-rumped 
yet), or orioles - still too early. An Osprey on the eastern-most nest platform.
