[cayugabirds-l] Cayuga Bird Club - May meeting 5/10/21 7:30 p.m.
Next Monday, May 10, at 7:30 p.m. will be the next monthly meeting of the Cayuga Bird Club. Jeffrey Wells, Ph.D., Vice-president of Boreal Conservation for the National Audobon Society, will present a webinar entitled, "The Biggest Bird Conservation Story You've Never Heard - the Boreal Forest of North America". One of the worlds last large, intact forest regions is the Boreal Forest of North America stretching from Alaska east to Newfoundland. Supporting between one and three billion birds, the Boreal Forest is aptly named North Americas Bird Nursery. While few people have heard the news, some of the worlds largest land conservation actions to protect birds and their habitat are underway in the Boreal, led by Indigenous governments and communities forging new, exciting partnership and stewardship models. Much of the migratory and winter bird life of New York comes from the Boreal Forest. Come hear about some innovate ways National Audubons Boreal Conservation program is working to conserve the Boreal Forest including through some innovate collaborative models with Indigenous peoples and modern research with partners like the Cornell Lab of Ornithology. Jeffrey Wells, Ph.D., is the Vice-president of Boreal Conservation for the National Audubon Society. Dr. Wells works from a satellite office in Gardiner, Maine. He has had a wide-ranging career in science and bird conservation. After receiving his undergraduate degree in biology from the University of Maine at Farmington in 1988 he went on to earn a Masters (1992) and Ph.D. (1995) in ecology and evolutionary biology from Cornell University. He went on to work for the National Audubon Society, first as Bird Conservation Director for the New York State office, then as the National Director of Bird Conservation. During his first tenure with Audubon, Dr. Wells was located at the Cornell Lab of Ornithology, where he continues as an Associate of the Lab. After leaving Audubon and Cornell, Jeff became the Senior Scientist for the International Boreal Conservation Campaign and Boreal Songbird Initiative, leading their science efforts for almost 20 years during which he published and spoke frequently to media about the globally significant conservation values of the Boreal Forest. As part of this work in 2011, he completed the book Boreal Birds of North America: A Hemispheric View of Their Conservation Links and Significance (University of California Press).

[cayugabirds-l] Orioles and Rose breasted Grosbeak galore!
Today our feeder was frequented by male and female Baltimore Orioles (two pairs) and three male Rose-breasted Grosbeak and two females all day long. The male Baltimore Oriole seemed to be interested only in the orange slice, whereas the females only ate the sunflower seeds. A FOY sighting of a Ruby-throated hummingbird at our crabapple tree. What a colorful spectacle!

[cayugabirds-l] Veery on the porch
This morning was a Thrush day. Awoke to the sweetest sound of a Wood Thrush singing it's heart out in my Sugar Maple woods. Next, a plump Veery landed on my covered porch and hopped over to investigate some sunflower seedlings trays. Great way to say good morning in Brooktondale. evie -- *Evelyn Weinstein, LMSW* *376 Brooktondale Rd* *Brooktondale, NY 14817* *USA* *607.592.* -- Cayugabirds-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsWELCOME http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsRULES http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsSubscribeConfigurationLeave.htm ARCHIVES: 1) http://www.mail-archive.com/cayugabirds-l@cornell.edu/maillist.html 2) http://www.surfbirds.com/birdingmail/Group/Cayugabirds 3) http://birdingonthe.net/mailinglists/CAYU.html Please submit your observations to eBird: http://ebird.org/content/ebird/ --
[cayugabirds-l] More Evening Grosbeaks
Six Evening Grosbeaks just arrived at my feeders. Or I should say, they’re watching the activity at my feeders from the adjacent trees, talking it over... ah, here we go: they’re moving in! -Geo Sent from my iPhone -- Cayugabirds-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsWELCOME http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsRULES http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsSubscribeConfigurationLeave.htm ARCHIVES: 1) http://www.mail-archive.com/cayugabirds-l@cornell.edu/maillist.html 2) http://www.surfbirds.com/birdingmail/Group/Cayugabirds 3) http://birdingonthe.net/mailinglists/CAYU.html Please submit your observations to eBird: http://ebird.org/content/ebird/ --
[cayugabirds-l] bobolinks
We had several bobolinks as yard birds this morning. I believe that's a first for our yard bird list. I heard their song and assumed at first that it was our resident mockingbird. But, wanting to confirm it, we saw at least 3 bobolinks. --Marty Interlaken, NY -- Cayugabirds-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsWELCOME http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsRULES http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsSubscribeConfigurationLeave.htm ARCHIVES: 1) http://www.mail-archive.com/cayugabirds-l@cornell.edu/maillist.html 2) http://www.surfbirds.com/birdingmail/Group/Cayugabirds 3) http://birdingonthe.net/mailinglists/CAYU.html Please submit your observations to eBird: http://ebird.org/content/ebird/ --
[cayugabirds-l] Orioles! 2 species!
Well, that was a first for my yard: a Baltimore AND an Orchard Oriole on an orange-half at once (well, for a second anyway). The latter is a new yard species for me. Spring!

[cayugabirds-l] Hummer
Well, all my expected migrants showed up this week. A hummingbird showed up this morning. It was eating from flowers on a weed in my patio. I’ve often believed that they will go to a natural food source before the feeder. I’ve had my feeders out for a week now and again I saw it on a flower rather than the feeder. I bought a lot of flowers yesterday and they are accessible though protected on the front porch. I won’t plant for weeks. Last week the Oriole, Rose Breasted Grosbeak, and Catbird arrived. The week before that the Purple Finches arrived. I still have some White Throated Sparrows and a few White Crown Sparrows. I’ve also had a one day stop over of male and female Towhees. Last week the House Wren showed up.He’s singing daily. My pair of Tree Swallows is back and nesting. I had a single Barn Swallow fly over when I was mowing. No warblers yet. I usually have yellow and Common Yellowthroats out back. I always get a Warbling Vireo too which I haven’t heard yet. Ah spring.
