[cayugabirds-l] Lincoln's Sparrow

The bubbling song of a LINCOLN'S SPARROW singing right outside my bedroom window woke me up this morning. A quick look around the yard didn't produce too many other new arrivals in the drizzle, but I suspect there is plenty to be found today. Keep us posted! Jay -- Cayugabirds-L List Info:

Just had two (possibly three) chestnut-sided warblers working the catkins outside my window (I'm embarrassed to still not know what trees they are, and will have to find out when/if they leaf out). If the narrative is to be believed, this means I've seen more chestnut-sided warblers from the

[cayugabirds-l] Orioles, Rose-breasted Grosbeaks and Wood Thrush !!

Yesterday (Wed.) late afternoon I saw 3 male Rose-breasted Grosbeaks at my hanging suet cake hanging near my window. They took turns standing on the cage, leaning over and eating. They had a fine time between the suet and the big sunflower feeder. When they were away from the suet, the male

Hi all, New (for me) at Goetchius Preserve this morning (8:00 – 9:30) were: Bobolink – 4 males, and I believe I also had a flyover female Eastern Kingbird – 3, doing lots of chattering and chasing each other around for many minutes in what was likely a territorial dispute. Scarlet Tanager

I started out for a walk around Beebe Lake, but made it no farther than the woods just to the east of the Human Ecology Building. A chestnut-sided was singing loudly in the trees. In addition viewing the chestnut-sided, I also saw a black-throated blue and Blackburnian, which was a lifer for

[cayugabirds-l] Ah, the Prickilie Bush...

I dropped into the Hawthorn Orchard a little before noon to find an abundance of bare sticks, but a paucity of foliage and birds. A westerly pass along the northern edge yielded a small flock of White-throated sparrows and a Baltimore Oriole. The perennial Great-crested Flycatcher was doing

I worked for most of the day at 821 Cliff Street. Around 11:00 I went to the trash bin out back. Coming back, i heard a bird singing. At first, I thought, American Robin. Well, it had to be one with a very bad raspy call. I listened for quite awhile. Scarlet Tanager!! Good birding, Ann --
