[cayugabirds-l] B-n Stilt yes !

2016-06-20 Thread Gary Kohlenberg
The wonderful Black-necked Stilt was still visible in Knox-Marcellus marsh when 
Nathan Goldberg and I left at 5:50 pm today.
He always favored the southern 1/3 of the marsh, in the muddy fingers, 
occasionally flying short distances to forage at various points. It was nice to 
see him in flight with long red legs trailing behind. 
The Eurasian Wigeon was hard to see, but more difficult was the Garganey, even 
Nathan's considerable efforts couldn't materialize him into view. 
Thanks to Ken and Tom for the updates today. 

Gary

[cayugabirds-l] Howland Island Prothonotary Warblers

2016-06-20 Thread Jay McGowan
All,
Yesterday Livia and I finally got a chance to kayak around Howland Island
for the first time this summer. We got started a little later than planned
after being distracted looking at the continuing Black-necked Stilt, so
didn't make it onto the water at Carncross Road until a little after 8AM.
The water levels were much lower than last year, so while the whole route
was passable, some areas were a pain to get through due to thick vegetation
and shallow water.

The target and highlight was of course PROTHONOTARY WARBLER. We found two
singing males last June, and a refuge survey a few weeks ago found three
singing males. Yesterday, Livia and I found *SIX* singing birds around the
nine mile loop. We had birds in both of the same areas where we had them
last summer, as well as an additional bird at the top of the island and two
around Haiti Island in the southeast corner. This could have conceivably
been the same bird heard from opposite sides of this island, but I am more
inclined to think it was a different individual. At the northwest point we
had two singing birds, one of which was carrying a caterpillar for some
time, indicating an active nest or fledglings nearby.

A map of the birds we heard yesterday can be viewed here:
https://flic.kr/p/JixJCm
The red points are yesterday's locations, the blue last year's.

And some mediocre recordings and a couple of photographs can be seen here:
http://bit.ly/28JE1al

Anyway, fun to hear so many and great to know that the Armitage birds are
not the only ones in the area!

Jay
