Early this morning, my recording station in Etna, NY was fortunate enough to
have a Black-billed Cuckoo fly almost directly overhead while giving it's
rattle or gurgle call. This is a fine example of this call type which is most
typically heard during nocturnal migration throughout the spring
Last night was relatively quiet, but had some enjoyable calls.
Highlights:
1 Virginia Rail (kidicks @ 23:46-23:47)
1 Probable ACADIAN FLYCATCHER @ 01:05
1 Alder Flycatcher @ 01:39
1 GRASSHOPPER SPARROW @ 02:28
1 Eastern Screech-Owl @ 02:45
2 Spotted Sandpipers
9 Black-billed Cuckoo calls from 8
Seen multiple times singing, perching by field trip group w/ Carl Steckler
Meg Richardson at Demeree Xmas Tree farm Lick St. Off Rt 90. Summerhill.
Usually private, off limits to public, but we have permission to be here Sat.

Cayugabirds-L List Info:
Cayuga Birders,
Alex Flecker wanted me to pass along his sighting this morning, at his
private residence, of a PAINTED BUNTING. He sent diagnostic photos taken
from just feet away at his feeder. The bird has not returned since 8 AM.
Birders interested in relocating the bird may do well to search
Highlight of a fairly quiet walk around Lindsay-Parsons Biodiversity
Preserve late this morning was an unseen ACADIAN FLYCATCHER giving a
single-note cheef! call along the blue trail at the base of Thatcher's
Pinnacles, near the southeast corner where the trail heads back towards the
railroad
Thanks. Great to see even a photo!!

My sister I were in Ontario's Algonquin Provincial Park in early May where a
Painted Bunting had been reported at a feeder in Huntsville near the western
boundary of park.
