A number of people had Northern Parula today, so consider that, too.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Prairie Warbler question
Hi Betsy, I believe it is more than a generic "Prairie Warblers" but do believe they have established territory and getting on with it. The lack of intense song and territorial fighting among neotrops is, in my opinion, a direct reflection of greatly reduced populations thanks to all the natural and man made hazards here and in the tropics. We've been tracking this phenomena for 30 years now at this location and the results are both remarkable and scary. The short answer to your question is that there is no longer a need for prolonged territorial song battles in many areas because of that reduced population. While you see it in your Prairies, we've seen it in several species -all neotrops. The ABC tends to agree with that analysis. Locally we have seen the extirpation of many species thanks to modern agribusiness farming methods as they destroy hedgerows and turn pasture into corn and alfalfa fields. Field species attempting to nest in the undesirable alfalfa are lost due to the several takings of the crop over the season. Add the slathering of liquid manure slurry between harvests and it's not a pretty picture. I'd love to hear other opinions on this and thanks for surfacing it.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Prairie Warbler question
So quickly time flies, and spring turns to summer. More and more warblers are feeding nestlings and even fledglings now. Some birds have already begun their second broods. -Geo Sent from my iPhone > On Jun 21, 2016, at 1:55 PM, Betsy Darlington > wrote: > > Have Prairie Warblers quieted down already?
