...and now the sun is peeking out, and just below the pond I have an adult 
female Northern Parula in a heavily flowering apple tree.

[cayugabirds-l] Sapsucker Woods, Fri 5/13

2016-05-13 Thread Mark Chao
At midday on Friday, I found a BAY-BREASTED WARBLER (heard and confirmed by
sight), probable BLACK-AND-WHITE WARBLER (heard but not seen), and one or
two BLACK-THROATED BLUE WARBLERS by the roadside gates in Sapsucker Woods.
There seemed to be a few more COMMON YELLOWTHROATS throughout than I’ve
noticed in past days, plus two countersinging CHESTNUT-SIDED WARBLERS in
the power-line corridor on the Dryden side.  Otherwise, I found no new or
unusual birds.

In addition to the birds Bob and Chris saw this morning I can add Indigo 
Buntings, Common Yellowthroats, Magnolia, Blue-winged Warbler and one 
Lawrence's Warbler singing a blue-winged song.

was no major fallout last night - but there were still a few good birds around.

[cayugabirds-l] colorful yard birds

2016-05-13 Thread Donna Lee Scott
...here this morning.
Pair of B. ORIOLES eating oranges, BLACK THROATED GREEN & YELLOW WARBLERS 
calling.
INDIGO BUNTING male perched in Red Oak tree contemplating a bird feeder below, 
which it then visited.

Added to the usual visitors, A. GOLDFINCHES, BLUE JAYS, N. CARDINAL pairs, and 
CAROLINA WRENS, and all the others, the term "jewels of the woods" comes to 
mind!

[cayugabirds-l] Great Crested Flycatchers SSW

2016-05-13 Thread Donna Lee Scott
In Sapsucker Woods/Woodleton Boardwalk area, yesterday 5/12/16. I heard at 
least 3 GREAT CRESTED FLYCATCHERS all around me and saw one a few times.
Then while looking for Barred Owls on woods part of Wilson Trail, no owls, but 
I found 2 WOOD THRUSHES on the ground, for good looks, as well as HAIRY 
woodpeckers and a mystery (to me) warbler or vireo type bird just overhead in 
the lower canopy; it seemed similar to a Worm Eating Warbler with a stripey 
head, which I did not think should be in that habitat.
Maybe it was a Red Eyed Vireo?

[cayugabirds-l] Woodcock on Cayutaville Rd

2016-05-13 Thread Dave Gislason
Yesterday, while driving on Cayutaville Rd, I spotted a Woodcock in the middle 
of the road. I slowed down and pulled over - the bird didn't fly away, but was 
making a bobbing motion. Thinking it might need assistance, I opened my door, 
talking to it,  but it then started slowly walking to the other side of the 
road, continually bobbing. Is this part of a mating behavior, or was something 
wrong with the bird?

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Hawthorn Orchard Friday

I noticed on radar that the bird echoes dropped of after sunrise (which is
typical) and THEN the rain came. So there was no major grounding of
birds that occurred overnight.
