[nysbirds-l] 2 Kentucky Warblers, Rockefeller SP
Hi all, There are currently two singing Kentucky Warblers at Rockefeller SP (only one has been reported, I believe). One is near the northern junction of Ash Tree Loop and Overlook Trail (it moves from northeast of the junction to south of it, singing from, I assume, the edges of its territory). This bird (Bird A) has a normal song. The second bird (Bird B) is singing a two-parted song, coming from just southwest of the southern junction of those two trails. They are not the same bird, as I've heard both songs delivered in immediate succession from the different spots, repeatedly. At one point, Bird A flew to the southern edge of its territory (I saw it), to have a singing duel with Bird B. I'm also hearing a regular song from the south (as Bird A sings from the north), but I assume Bird B is simply switching between songs. The alternative would be, of course, that there are actually three singing Kentucky Warblers in this general area. I wonder if there are any females around...unlikely, I would guess, as these birds are singing frequently in midday--and so are probably unpaired. Still, something to keep track of!

(I did not check the Bald Eagle nest at the Tonawanda WMA.) At Kumph Marsh there were 5 male American Wigeons, and one male Green Winged Teal. At Cayuga Pool there was a total of 4 American Coots with 14 young, 2 Common Moorhens with 5 young, 10 Black Terns, and I was fortunate enough to see a Least Bittern fly across the pool .
