[cayugabirds-l] New arrivals early AM 5/07/2019

[khmo]

Nexrad was right on this AM when we checked around the sanctuary and
 added Blackburnian. Black-throated Green and Bay Breasted Warblers as
 well as Red-eyed Vireo and an Eastern Wood Pewee.
 The quince are now in full bloom much to the delight of the Orioles
that
 have ben here for several days and the hummer who finally arrived at
noon. That brings the year list for the sanctuary to 93 species.

[cayugabirds-l] new arrivals FOY

[Ken Haas]

This morning I was happy to welcome back two FOY Rose-breasted Grosbeaks and a 
singing Brown Thrasher to my yard West of Mecklenberg. Still hanging around are 
R.C.Kinglets and G.C.Kinglets, and a few more Purple Finches. Looks like I've 
got to stock up on sunflower seeds!

[cayugabirds-l] New arrivals

[Anne Marie Johnson]

As I pulled out of my garage, I spotted a Pine Warbler on my driveway right 
next to my car! It foraged in the gravel for a few more seconds and then 
flew up into the pines. I'm guessing it was a new arrival that was too 
hungry to be concerned about my moving car right next to it! A Chipping 
Sparrow was a new arrival in my yard this morning as well.


I went to Goetchius Preserve in Caroline mid-morning where I found a 
Solitary Sandpiper, a Wilson's Snipe, and a Savannah Sparrow, along with a 
Barn Swallow and a Rough-winged mixed in with lots of Tree Swallows.

Incidentally, there were no disemboweled toads on the dike earlier this 
morning, but at this moment I'm sitting at the breakfast table looking down 
toward the pond, and I can see three Crows hopping around in the grass down 
there, so I imagine they are starting the feast.

[cayugabirds-l] New arrivals

[Geo Kloppel]

Newly arrived in my West Danby yard this morning were Gray Catbird, 
Chestnut-sided Warbler,
Nashville Warbler and Ovenbird.

I usually wind up flushing the early morning ducks off my little pond before I 
can get close, but this morning I got lucky with a pair of Wood Ducks, and 
achieved a one-duck wide binocular field. 

After flushing them, I walked along the dike, counting the toads in the water. 
I spotted 136 of them, many in flagrante amplecto. They'd had a big night: this 
morning there are lots of egg strings, where yesterday were none!

[cayugabirds-l] new arrivals

[John and Sue Gregoire]

Just now we had an amazing new visitor when an adult male CMWA(Cape May Warbler)
landed on a feeder support ar and wondered what all these other birds were 
eating!
Too bad we don't have meal worms.

Yesterday afternoon Solitary Sandpiper came into a pond. That followed a 
morning of
FOYs starting with a hummer at dawn and then Chestnut-sided, Western Palm, 
Ovenbird
and a soaring adult Bald Eagle overhead! Great day that brought this year's yard
list to 88.

[cayugabirds-l] New arrivals

[Carol Keeler]

I'm so glad I put out the feeders.  The male Hummingbird is back.  The Oriole 
has come to the jelly feeder repeatedly.  On top of that, the House Wren just 
let loose with song.  Three new arrivals in one day.

I've got 5 White Crown Sparrows, but I think the White Throats and Juncos have 
left.

I found a warbler out in my wild area foraging in the shrubs.  I only know a 
few common warblers such as the Yellow and Yellowthroat which nest out back. I 
got some good images so I hope to figure out what it is.  
It's been a good birding day for me here at home.  I do enjoy reading about 
everyone's new arrivals.

[cayugabirds-l] new arrivals

[Jay McGowan]

Hi all,
In addition to many warblers, new arrivals today included WHITE-THROATED
SPARROWS at multiple locations, as well as influxes of RUBY-CROWNED
KINGLETS and YELLOW-RUMPED WARBLERS. Yesterday I found my first LINCOLN'S
SPARROWS of the fall, first in the Freese Road gardens and then on Niemi
Road. Lingering birds included a LEAST FLYCATCHER on Niemi and a GREAT
CRESTED FLYCATCHER on Tareyton Drive in Northeast Ithaca yesterday.

Livia and I had a fun morning on Saturday at Montezuma, not participating
in the Muckrace but just birding around and watching the teams.
Shorebirding was disappointing from Towpath, where VERY few birds were
found. We did have a BAIRD'S SANDPIPER, but it was one of only eight
individual shorebirds out on the flats. Eaton Marsh on the Wildlife Drive
was better, with multiples of both dowitchers and a few peeps, the Visitor
Center pools had three BLACK-BELLIED PLOVERS and many Pectoral Sandpipers,
and the south pond at the Montezuma Audubon Center proved the most
productive of all, with 11 STILT SANDPIPERS, ~150 peeps, 30+ PECTORAL
SANDPIPERS, and a LONG-BILLED DOWITCHER. We missed the Wilson's Phalarope
reported by Meena's team.

A highlight for the morning was the ROSS'S GOOSE on the lake south of Mud
Lock, refound by Dave Nutter et. al. after a three-week absence. Distant
photos here:
http://ebird.org/ebird/view/checklist?subID=S25095439

All in all, we ended up (with a little effort at the end finding titmouse
and some other overlooked species) with 100 species for the day, a far cry
from the 100-on-Towpath I had a couple years ago on the Muckrace, but not
too shabby for a casual morning. I look forward to hearing more details
from the Muckrace, whether highlights or standings.

Cheers,
Jay

[cayugabirds-l] New arrivals

[Carol Keeler]

I had my FOS White Crown Sparrow, female RB Grosbeak, and House Wren today. The 
White Crowns usually arrive when the Serviceberry blooms.  They're not quite 
open yet, but close.

Now I need the Orioles , Catbirds, and Yellow Warblers to show up.

When I walked up to get my paper this morning I heard the resident meadowlark 
singing and saw the tree swallows zooming about.  The swallows nest in my 
birdhouses. Everyone needs resident mosquito eaters.

[cayugabirds-l] New arrivals and photo information

[John and Sue Gregoire]

We had a short banding morning before wind forced us to close. We had several
hansome male Yellow Warblers and our first Chestnut-sided (a very bright male) 
and
Eastern White-crowned Sparrows.

Photos of the above will be on the khamolists...@yahoogroups.com soon. For
historical photos such as the plumage variations we've been discussing, see our
website. We have some of the red shaft pics as well as some very unique Cedar
Waxwing tail band  color variations/wax deposits. With only two people we often 
are
too busy to take photos of anything but rarities.

Nice to see spring and so many new birds.
John
