[cayugabirds-l] YT Vireo @ Commonland

2016-05-27 Thread Suan Yong
A yellow-throated vireo was singing at Commonland yesterday and this morning, 
from high in the trees behind the small pond. New yard bird for me. Stared at 
those trees for some time this morning but failed to see it. The resident male 
red-winged blackbird was very unhappy with my stroll around the pond, as I 
spied a female leaving a nest with a fecal sac plopped into the pond.

Re:[nfc-l] fantastic night flight calls

Thanks Ken for posting! I saw it today morning. But during the night I was 
awake several times and my bed room window was open and I could hear several 
Swainsons Thrushes and at least one Gray-checked Thrush flying overhead.


Cheers

Subject: [nfc-l] fantastic night flight calls

Just spent over an hour listening to night flight calls in my front yard 
(Ithaca, NY). Definitely my best spring night ever, with wave after wave of 
thrushes (mostly Swainson’s but many Gray-cheeked, and several high-pitched 
enough to be Bicknell's), both cuckoos, Alder Flycatcher, and flocks of 
shorebirds — calling and singing Dunlin, Spotted Sandpipers, Black-bellied 
Plovers, possible Whimbrel, and some weird calls we couldn’t identify. Jay 
McGowan was listening (and recording) from his nearby yard as well.

Still lots of calls after midnight, as light rain started, so if you’re a night 
owl, get out there and listen!
