[cayugabirds-l] Eastern Whip-poor-wills?
The past couple of nights, there’s been a vocal Eastern Whip-poor-will at the small pine stand along Hile School Road north of Freeville, NY, off Route 38. Has anyone else heard Whip-poor-wills calling in the Ithaca and surrounding areas? Now’s the time, usually right at dusk!! Please post if you do hear one calling, and enter into eBird for more data points. Sincerely, Chris T-H -- Christopher T. Tessaglia-Hymes — Field Applications Engineer K.

[cayugabirds-l] Eastern Whip-poor-wills, Northeast Ithaca
Jeff Doyle heard an EASTERN WHIP-POOR-WILL in his backyard on Muriel Street early this morning, so a couple of us in the neighborhood listened from the south end of Tareyton Drive this evening and were not disappointed: one bird started singing from well to the south around 8:15 and continued intermittently for a couple of long bouts followed by a couple of shorter ones before falling silent a little after 8:30. A second bird chimed in briefly during one of the bouts, but it was impossible to tell which direction it was coming from, only that it was farther away. Seemingly to the south or southeast from our vantage as well. One of the birds was seen briefly silhouetted against the sky hawking insects from high up in a line of white pines. https://ebird.org/ebird/view/checklist/S36376856 -- Jay McGowan Macaulay Library Cornell Lab of Ornithology jw...@cornell.edu -- 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/ --
